VAGINAL HEALTH DIAGNOSTICS
A treatment system includes a treatment device adapted to contact a vulvar or vaginal tissue of a body and includes a treatment mechanism configured to apply a treatment to the tissue and at least one sensor configured to provide objective sensor data related to the tissue. An external device is configured to receive subjective information provided by a user or a third party and to receive the objective sensor data from the treatment device. The external device includes a processor configured to use the subjective information and the objective sensor data in a decision matrix to issue commands to at least the treatment mechanism that correspond to treatment instructions based on the subjective information and the objective data. The treatment instructions include instructions related to controlling the treatment mechanism and its application of treatment to the tissue and a treatment duration.
Methods and systems of spring modules for an adjustable sleeping system
Spring modules for an adjustable sleeping system. At least some of the example embodiments are spring modules comprising: a spring rail, and a plurality of adjustable spring assemblies spaced along the length of the spring rail. Each adjustable spring assembly may comprise: a motor with a stator coupled to the spring rail, a lead screw coupled to the rotor of the motor, and the lead screw extending above an upper surface of the spring rail, a spring plate coupled to the lead screw, and a main spring coupled to the spring plate. Thus, the weight or force carried by each adjustable spring assembly along the spring rail is separately adjustable by a bed controller.
METHOD AND SYSTEM OF MECHANICAL NERVE STIMULATION FOR PAIN RELIEF
A system and method of using a lead introduced to a subject proximate to a region of pain is contemplated to deliver pain relief without the need for multiple needle insertions or electrical stimulation. The three-dimensional lead may include spring-like characteristics and/or coils to translate mechanical energy into the therapy.
COLD/HEAT-ASSISTED DISTRIBUTED WAVE VIBRATION THERAPY
Methods and systems for providing pain therapy by utilizing cold/heat-assisted distributed vibration therapy. The pain therapy device includes a plurality of vibration motors that are located along a grid. The device is portable and can be adaptable to the body part requiring pain therapy.
TUNING FORK HANDLE ASSEMBLY
The present disclosure provides a tuning fork handle assembly (hereinafter “assembly”). The assembly includes a substantially hollow body having an outer surface and an inner surface forming a cavity. An opening is formed at a first end of the body, and the cavity is flared at the first end of the body. The assembly also includes a spring member is disposed in the cavity at the first end such that the spring member fits into the flared end of the cavity. The spring member secures a tuning fork to the tuning fork handle responsive to engagement of the spring member. The assembly includes a cover disposed over the opening at the first end of the body. The cover includes an aperture configured to receive the tuning fork. The cover causes compression of at least a portion of the spring member to secure the tuning fork to the body of the tuning for handle.
RESTORATION THERAPY HAND TOOL
A manual restorative therapy tool is presented. A first tool includes a body, a first contact surface coupled to the first surface of the body, and second contact surfaces coupled to the second surface of the body, wherein each second contact surface of the array is smaller than the first contact surface. A handle may be coupled to a third surface that allows either the first or the second contact surface to be pressed against a user, expanding the user's blood vessels and lymphatic vessels. In this state, circulation may be further enhanced by use of a second tool having a handle with a first end and a second end, a first contact surface coupled to the first end via a compression mechanism, and a second contact surface coupled to the second end via a flexibility mechanism. The first and second contact surfaces independently spin with respect to the handle.
Personal care device
This invention relates to a device (1) for performing personal care operations on a subject. The device (1) comprises a handheld base body (3), a driving unit (400) to receive and drive an interchangeable treatment head (2) to perform the personal care operation, a sensor (7) for measuring the amount of current drawn from a motor arrangement (5, 6) while the driving unit (400) is being operated. The device (1) further comprises a control unit (8) operably connected to the sensor (7) and the driving unit (400) and configured to control the driving unit (400). The control unit (8) is configured to identify the individual treatment head (2) fitted on the driving unit (400) by comparing the measured motor current at the predefined measuring time (t1) with at least one predefined current threshold (C).
MULTI-FUNCTION THERAPEUTIC SYSTEM AND ASSOCIATED METHOD
A multi-function therapeutic system comprising a housing having a top portion having a first radiation therapy unit mounted therein for generating and applying light energy to a person, a bottom portion including a hydrogen therapy unit for supplying hydrogen to the person, and an intermediate bed portion disposed between the top portion and bottom portion. The intermediate bed portion includes an electromagnetic therapy unit for generating and applying electromagnetic energy to the person. The system can also include a vibration therapy unit associated with one or more of the bottom portion and the intermediate bed portion for generating and applying vibrational energy to the person, and a control unit for controlling the first radiation therapy unit, the hydrogen therapy unit, the electromagnetic therapy unit, and the sound therapy unit.
WEARABLE DEVICE TO TREAT TREMOR
Devices, systems, and methods are provided to treat tremor in an outer extremity, typically a hand, of a subject. A wearable base or glove is provided with one or more tremor damping mechanisms, which can be of different or the same types, in the case of a plurality of tremor damping mechanisms. One or more frictional damping mechanisms can be provided and/or one or more tuned mass damping mechanisms can be provided. The frictional dampening mechanism can simply be the viscoelastic material of the wearable base that deforms and interferes with tremor movement. The frictional dampening mechanism can be one or more tension elements provided within the body of the wearable base. The tuned damping mechanism may comprise one or more resonators held within a housing coupled to the wearable base. The tremor damping mechanisms can be self-adjusting and/or adjustable by the wearer.
THERAPEUTIC DEVICE FOR TREATMENT OF CONDITIONS RELATING TO THE SINUSES, NASAL CAVITIES, EAR, NOSE AND THROAT
A therapeutic device for treating one or more conditions associated with a user's nasal cavities, sinuses, and/or ear canals includes a housing having an opening, an acoustic vibrator within the housing that is operable to provide an acoustic vibration to the user, a fan within the housing that is operable to provide a pressure to the user and a power supply that provides power to the acoustic vibrator and the fan. A mask is connected to the housing at the opening and includes a nasal interface appliable around the nose of the user, a nasal chamber in which the user's nostrils are located and an aperture through which the fan delivers the pressure.
