A61H7/002
SEAT FOR VEHICLE
There is provided a technique by which posture changing can be given to an occupant while the forward shift of his/her hip portion is prevented. A seat for vehicle includes a seat cushion, and a seat back coupled to the seat cushion, and the seat back includes a posture changing mechanism having a back face supporting mechanism. There is provided a technique by which a fatigue reduction operation using the posture changing mechanism includes a) moving the back face supporting mechanism set to a position of a lumbar spine portion of an occupant from a first position state to a rear direction side and setting the back face supporting mechanism to a second position state, and b) thereafter, moving the back face supporting mechanism stepwise to a front direction side from the second position state to the first position state.
SKIN CARE DEVICE
A vibrating skin care device comprises a handle, an elongate damper, a vibrating drive and a vibrating head with the vibrating head being connected to the vibrating drive via a friction fit, conical connection. The device may be used to exfoliate skin and/or reduce skin blemishes.
FOOT THERAPY DEVICE
A foot therapy device comprises a generally hemispherical dome element detachably connected to a support element having substantially planar top and bottom faces. In some embodiments, the support element is optionally detachably connected to one or more additional stacked support elements.
WEARABLE CUBITAL TUNNEL SYNDROME PREVENTION AND TREATMENT DEVICE
A wearable cubital tunnel syndrome prevention and treatment device is an auxiliary tool for the protection of cubital syndrome, using two long plate-typed main bodies with a convexly curved outer edge of the same shape to attach to the outer skin surfaces of the extensor and flexor tendon g with a fan-shaped spherical arc surface arranged in equal intervals on the inner side surface of the main body. The two extended sides of the outer edge surface of the main body cover both ends of the whole main body by means of the pass-through of the band or bonding, allowing convex arc rings to buckle the assembly tightly with the band, achieving the effect of holding and positioning and applying pressure with the elbow, and the effect of doing multiple point massage to the muscle groups of the extensor and flexor tendons on both sides of the elbow synchronously.
Abdominal Exercise Device with Integrated Back Massager
An abdominal exercising apparatus should allow the user to strengthen their abdominal and oblique muscles in a comfortable manner. The present invention seeks to strengthen the stomach muscles and do so in a comfortable manner that allows the user of the invention to exercise in an upright seated position, while also providing a massage of the user's back muscles along each side of their spine. The present invention can be used on a bench, chair, couch, or other seating apparatus where it can be used in comfort and while engaged in other passive activities, such as, watching TV. An added benefit of the present invention is that it provides massaging of the muscles on both sides of the user's spine as it is used.
Customized skin care and method to provide same
Methods to provide customized skin care by using specimen dispensing device to dispense specimens from removable dispensers for the purpose of treating skin of a user are presented. Methods to utilize the embedded memory and electrical interface of the dispensing device and dispensers to produce customizable skin care products that give better skin treatment results are also presented. The invention may also be applied to health care and personal care needs.
System for dynamically adjusting treatment angle under tension to accommodate variations in spinal morphology
A system for dynamically adjusting treatment angle under tension to accommodate variations in spinal morphology during spinal decompression therapy is provided. It provides a tensioning device including a patient-positioning means, a tension-producing actuator, a positioning device, a patient interface device, a control system and a display. The control system with feedback on the resultant tension vector applied to patient spine operationally configured to allow for adjustment of either tension producing actuator position, patient position, or both while applying tension to the patient spine during non-therapeutic tension levels. The control system automatically adjusts tension producing actuator work levels such that the resultant tension vector magnitude remains ideally constant during adjustment of resultant tension vector angle, reducing the risk of eliciting paraspinal muscle contraction due to changes in resultant tension vector magnitude.
PERSONAL CARE DEVICE WITH CONVERTIBLE HANDLE AND TREATEMENT HEAD
A therapeutic device for massaging, cleansing, or delivering of liquid substances has a variably configurable handle that is adapted to function with a plurality of head attachments. The handles may be swiveled relative to each other at various angled positions, or they may be detached to function as two, separate devices.
SYSTEM, METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PAIN CONTROL AND HEALING
A device for treating a user includes a housing having apertures. The housing has application areas including a convex top surface, a concave bottom surface, a convex rear surface, convex side surfaces and rounded protrusions extending away from the housing. A vibrational source is located in the housing to produce vibration at the application areas. A switch is in operative communication with the vibrational source to control operation of the vibrational source.
Handheld multi-tip scraping and moxibustion device
A handheld multi-tip scraping and moxibustion device, including: pushing and scraping air-guiding tips distributed on a panel each having a through-cavity; and a moxa burning chamber communicating with the through-cavity to enable heat and air in the moxa burning chamber to be discharged gradually for use through the pushing and scraping heat-conducting and air-guiding tips. The pushing and scraping air-guiding tips including a first set of pushing and scraping heat-conducting and air-guiding tips located in a middle portion of the panel and a second set of pushing and scraping heat-conducting and air-guiding tips located around the first set of pushing and scraping air-guiding tips, wherein the height of the first set of pushing and scraping heat-conducting and air-guiding tips is less than the height of the second set of pushing and scraping heat-conducting and air-guiding tips in order to form a multi-layered stepped air discharge.
