Methods, systems and devices for reducing anxiety, including increasing relaxation and/or calm. In some variations these methods may include reducing anxiety, increase relaxation and/or calm by non-invasive temperature regulation of the frontal cortex prior to and/or during sleep. The subject may have an anxiety disorder, or may not have a diagnosed anxiety disorder.

A virtual reality augmented massage therapy system and method is disclosed. Using this system taps into all of the key senses that people use to evaluate their surroundings, which in turn helps them to relax and feel comfortable. Simply stated, the more stimulus inputs a person's brain receives to determine its presence in an environment, the more immersed the person will become in the generated environment.

Systems, products, compounds, and methods can be applied and/or used by a person to facilitate and promote the production of nitric oxide to be used by a person for health benefits. The systems, products, and devices include a nitric oxide bath system. The systems and methods can comprise one or more compounds that when mixed are adapted to produce nitric oxide gas, with at least one nitrite compound and at least one acid compound. The nitric oxide gas may then be delivered to a user transdermally via one or more bath applications.

A shower head includes a handle and a head portion. The head portion includes shower holes. The handle includes an upstream bubble generator that generates minute bubbles in water. The head portion includes a downstream bubble generator that generates minute bubbles in water in the same manner as the upstream bubble generator. The upstream bubble generator includes a constriction and a tapered portion. The downstream bubble generator has a swirling flow mode. Since minute bubbles are generated on the upstream and downstream sides, the amount of minute bubbles mixed in water becomes larger. This allows for showering by effectively using the function of minute bubbles.

This massage head includes a housing, having two active members emerging from the lower surface thereof, having its free lower edge, opposite to the housing, intended to be in contact with a patient's skin. One at least of said active members is formed of a flap hinged within the housing and capable of being pivoted to bring the lower edges of said active members closer to each other or draw them away from each other, the relative displacement of said at least one flap being ensured by means of a rotary cam formed within the housing, the rotation axis of the cam being oriented substantially parallel to the displacement direction of said at least one flap. The cam includes at least one cam track formed on its periphery, intended to cooperate with the flap support(s), having one or their ends hinged in the housing.

A sauna having a video display device, a loud speaker device, lighting elements, an aromatherapy device, and a user interface device, and includes control circuitry which links the sauna to a remote server. The remote server provides media files for display to a user and collects and stores user profile and usage information. Multiple saunas are be linked into a network or global infrastructure so that a user's profile and usage information follow the user to any sauna connected to the network. Collected data can be used by users to track individual usage and performance metrices, and by service providers to analyze usage data and information for operational and marketing purposes.

A sauna having heating and lighting elements includes control circuitry which links the sauna to a remote server. The remote server provides information and media files for presentation to a user and collects and stores user profile and usage information. Multiple saunas are be linked into a network or global infrastructure so that a user’s profile and usage information follow the user to any sauna connected to the network. Collected data can be used by users to track individual usage and performance metrices, and by service providers to analyze usage data and information for operational and marketing purposes.

Methods, systems and apparatus for inducing and verifying the level of neural entrainment at any target frequency, through a combination of biofeedback mechanisms, data analysis, and modulation of synergistic combinations of adaptable stimuli.

A method of acupuncture needle packaging includes inserting an acupuncture needle body of an acupuncture needle including an acupuncture needle handle at an upper portion thereof into an acupuncture needle tube starting from the acupuncture needle handle; disposing the acupuncture needle in the acupuncture needle tube in a state in which the upper portion of the acupuncture needle handle is exposed to an exterior of the acupuncture needle tube; ascending the upper portion of the acupuncture needle handle exposed to the exterior using a pressing jig; irradiating a laser to an area where the acupuncture needle tube and the acupuncture needle handle abut each other; and coupling the acupuncture needle handle and the acupuncture needle tube by thermally deforming the area where the acupuncture needle tube and the acupuncture needle handle abut each other with a heat generated by the laser.

A care instrument arranges a storage container and a peristaltic pump, with the storage container accommodating the care product, the peristaltic pump being configured to draw the care product from the storage container and deliver the care product to a surface of a housing. In this way, a user can apply care products while using the care instrument. By controlling the peristaltic pump by the control component, the care product is delivered to the surface of the housing in a timed and quantitative manner for precise and accurate delivery of the care product. The massaging component and the peristaltic pump can operate independently. When only the massaging component works independently, the care instrument functions in massaging, and when the massaging component and the peristaltic pump work together, the care product delivered to the surface of the housing may be further uniformly dispersed by the massaging component.
