A headache treatment assembly includes a clamping unit that has a pair of grips each is movably disposed in opposing sides of a clamping recess in the clamping unit. Each of the grips is urgeable toward each other to pinch a trapezius muscle at a strategic location to treat symptoms of a headache. A tube is coupled to and extends away from the clamping unit and the tube curves beneath the user's armpit when the clamping unit is positioned on the user's trapezius muscle. A knob is rotatably disposed on the tube and the knob is in mechanical communication with the clamping unit. The grips are urged toward each other when the knob is rotated in a first direction and the grips are urged away from each other when the knob is rotated in a second direction.

A face cradle system; the face cradle system includes a face cradle configured to be used in combination with a host massage therapy table. The face cradle includes an adjustable frame includes an open-ended oval shape having a first-arm extension, a second-arm extension, and an oval portion. The oval portion of the adjustable frame includes a padded forehead hammock positioned at a closed end of the oval portion. The padded forehead hammock features a sinus relief nodule which makes contact upon, and applies pressure to, an area directly above a bridge of a nose. The oval portion, the first-arm extension and the second-arm extension are connected at an adjustable pivot point. The face cradle system promotes proper alignment of the spine, relieves and prevents a user's sinus pressure while in a prone position, and overall facilitates a more beneficial massage.

A finger-splinting sheath device is provided for use as a self-treatment aid in assisting a bowel in a patient suffering from complications of pelvic organ prolapse, namely rectocele. The finger-splinting sheath device generally includes a monolithic molded body including a flange-element, and a sheath-element having a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the sheath-element is coupled to the flange-element at the proximal end and is closed at the distal end. The sheath-element generally includes an elliptical cross-section configured to receive two-fingers therein, wherein the sheath-element functions to splint the two fingers during use. A method for using the device includes inserting the device with two fingers within the sheath-element into the vagina and applying pressure to the vaginal walls to assist a bowel movement.

The negative pressure generator includes a chamber body with a suction nozzle; a piston, arranged inside the chamber body; and a driving device configured to drive the piston to reciprocated move inside the chamber body so as to generate negative pressure at the suction nozzle.

The present disclosure is applicable to the technical field of massage apparatuses, and provides a massage waist pillow. The waist pillow main body includes a sponge waist pillow main body, a massage unit and an air bag; a groove is reserved in an area of the sponge waist pillow main body close to the back of the waist of a user; a support plate is arranged in the groove; the air bag is arranged at a bottom of the groove and is mounted on the support plate; the massage unit is arranged in the groove and above the air bag; and the air bag is located in an interlayer between the massage unit and the support plate.

A manually-operated quantification soft tissue mobilization (QSTM) device includes a pressure applicator and a sensor member. The pressure applicator is configured to enable a user to dynamically apply a stroking mechanical force as the pressure applicator is moved over an area treatment areas of a patient's soft tissue. The sensor member including an accelerometer and a gyrometer is configured to determine various parameters of the dynamically applied stroking mechanical force in three dimensions as the pressure applicator is moved over the treatment areas of the patient's soft tissue. These parameters include a force magnitude in three dimensions, an angle in multiple axes, a stroke position, a stroke frequency, a sensed vibration magnitude at dominant spectral frequencies, and/or a rate of the stroking mechanical force dynamically applied to the soft tissue.

A muscle tension reliever or “self-massage tool” may include a body and a handle. The self-massage tool may include an adjustable strap and one or more associated attachment elements. The self-massage tool may include one or more massage heads and/or attachment features. A user or subject may place or secure the adjustable strap to a complementary location of the body to the massage location. The strap may be secured to a fixed attachment point or structure. The handle may be used to move the massage head as pressure is applied via the strap.

The invention concerns a compression garment for providing compression to a body part, in particular a limb, of a patient, comprising an, in particular tubular, padded sleeve extending around the body part and having an inner layer and an outer layer secured, in particular sewn, together to define at least one enclosure between them, and multiple particles, in particular plastic foam particles, received in the enclosure for being pressed against the body part.

A massage motion control method, a robot controller using the same, and a storage medium are provided. The method includes: calculating a robot end desired speed and a robot end desired angular speed corresponding to a desired massage trajectory of a massage robot to compensate using two obtained robot end compensation amounts in the case that the desired massage trajectory for a target massage area at a current control cycle, a robot end speed compensation amount meeting a desired massage intensity requirement, and a robot end angular speed compensation amount adapted to an environmental curvature of the target massage area are obtained, and controlling the massage robot by determining a corresponding to-be-outputted joint angle based on motion parameter(s) obtained by the compensation. In this manner, the adaptive change of the massage position and the massage intensity for the massage area of the patient can be realized.

A sole arrangement for an article of footwear with a gradient depth value is provided. In one aspect of the disclosure, the sole arrangement extending from an end of a posterior area of the sole arrangement to an end of an anterior area of the sole arrangement, wherein the posterior area of the sole arrangement being formed under a heel area and the anterior area of the sole arrangement being formed under a forefoot area of a foot. The sole arrangement having an upper facing surface and a ground engaging surface, wherein the upper facing surface being on an opposite side of the sole arrangement than the ground engaging surface. The sole arrangement having a maximum posterior depth value. The sole arrangement having a maximum anterior depth value. The maximum posterior depth value may be smaller than the maximum anterior depth value by a first margin.
