Stretching belt for stretching of the spine
A stretching device for stretching and aligning a user's back may include a belt, optionally a gambrel and universal hook, and optionally a support system, such as a slotted door mount. The belt may be designed to wrap around the user's back and under the user's armpits, wherein the belt is a segmented belt having a plurality of raised segments spaced along a length of the belt. Rings may be attached to each end of the belt, wherein the rings may be designed to engage with a mounting device, such as the gambrel and universal hook.
Lumbar decompression device
A lumbar decompression device may include one or more bases that support one or more uprights with a plurality of upper support members and a plurality of lower support members. The upper support members are configured to engage with a user's upper body and support a user's body weight. The one or more uprights are positioned laterally from the upper support members such that the user may perform a variety of movements of their lower body without contacting the one or more uprights.
BACK AND SPINE DECOMPRESSION DEVICE
A spinal decompression system comprising an anchor portion and a working portion operatively coupled to the anchor portion. The anchor portion is adapted to anchor the spinal decompression system to a mechanical ground. The anchor portion comprises an anchor strap. The spinal decompression system comprises a pair of arm supports to support a user's arms in a raised position. The pair of arm supports are operatively coupled to the anchor strap to form a load path from the pair of arm supports to the anchor strap. A load cell is disposed in the load path to sense an applied load applied by the pair of arm supports. The pair of arm supports have an adjustable height to adjust the spinal decompression system to apply a desired load to the users arm to unload at least a portion of the user's bodyweight.
Vestibular training apparatus and method of use
A vestibular training apparatus and method as disclosed and claimed. Wherein the training apparatus comprises a motorized rotational platform, an adjustable body harness, a swivel coupling attached to the adjustable harness, a beam anchor, and pulley system. The pulley system in connection with the beam anchor allows a user to be lifted by the trainer after rotating on the motorized rotational platform, wherein the user continues to rotate after being lifted by the trainer as a result of inertia.
Vertical decompression relaxation device
Vertical decompression relaxation device with vertical tank, with access ladders, with handrail and stairs for internal access, and tie rods adjustable fasteners to tie rods, mainly in the treatment of muscle and fascia stiffness.
Blood Circulation Enhancement Method and Apparatus
This invention pertains to therapeutic or medical devices to improve healing, performance, or aesthetics by enhancing blood circulation to regions of the body. Blood circulation is enhanced using gravity by gradually raising and lowering the body member slowly and repeatedly from a level below the heart to a level above the heart.
Body lightening system for gait training
A body lightening system for at least partially supporting the weight of a user, the system including a structure having a frame and a motion system, the motion system driving the structure to follow the movements of the user, a holding system, the holding system including a holding mechanism, a hanger and a plurality of hanging cables, the plurality of hanging cables connecting the hanger to a harness to be worn by the user, a power system including a power source for powering the body lightening system, and a human machine interface, the human machine interface providing control over the motion of the motion system and the percentage of the user's weight supported by the holding system.
Portable multi-functional upright body stretching apparatus
An apparatus for stretching comprises a body holder for connecting to a support device. The body holder includes a body support panel for receiving an upper portion of a torso of a user, a left arm holder for receiving a left arm, and a right arm holder for receiving a right arm, and a body holder closing device. The left arm holder and the right arm holder are pivotally connected to the body support panel. The body support panel can have a curved surface to approximate a part of the torso. The left arm holder can have a flat or curved surface to approximate a left side of the torso and at least a portion of left arm. The right arm holder can have a flat or curved surface to approximate at least a right side of the torso and at least a portion of right arm.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING MULTIPLE SURGICAL VARIABLES
A surgical patient interface including a base; a platform coupled to the base and including a first end and a second end, the platform configured to transition between a first position and a second position about a pivotable axis stationary relative to the base; a first abutment and a second abutment each adjustably coupled to the platform. In the first position, the platform extends between the first end and the second end in a substantially horizontal direction relative to the base, and the first abutment and the second abutment are separated by a first distance along the substantially horizontal direction. In the second position, the platform extends between the first end and the second end in a substantially vertical direction such that a torso of a patient extends in the substantially vertical direction, and the first abutment and the second abutment are separated by a second, different distance along the substantially vertical direction.
Relief system for at least partially relieving the body weight of a person
A relief system for at least partially relieving the body weight of a person includes at least one first fastening device for fastening a first end of a first support device and at least one second fastening device for fastening a second end of the first support device which are formed on a cuff, such that an equally distributed tensile force is exerted on the cuff at the first fastening device and second fastening device when the first support device is guided through a guide device during a movement of the cuff when loaded by at least part of the body weight of the person. This advantageously permits a simple connection in particular of a bedridden patient to the relief system, without the patient first having to be moved, without other medical/therapeutic devices being disturbed, and without limiting the patient's stepping/walking movement.
