Methods for treating Blepharitis, Meibomian Gland Dysfunction and Dry Eye Syndrome include thermal massage, thermal debridement, and thermal expression. Particular embodiments include use of handheld devices that provide the thermal therapy to tissue by contacting a surface heated with thermal energy to a patient's tissue. Thermal energy can be continuously provided during operation. In particular embodiments, a handheld device comprises a base assembly operatively connected to a removeable thermal energy applicator. A wide range of thermal applicators may be connected to the base assembly to provide different treatments, including heat application, debridement, and expression of the treated tissue or gland.

A device for treating human keratinous material, in particular with the aid of an electric current. The device includes a reservoir containing a composition, in particular cosmetic or dermatological, to be applied to the keratinous material, and an end fitting for the application of the composition contained in the reservoir, the end fitting comprising a plurality of application members and a distributor. The distributor includes at least one storage cavity for the composition and supply orifices to conduct the composition from the storage cavity or cavities to the application members, and the distributor being configured so that the flow rate of the composition arriving at the application members is identical to within 20% for at least two application members, better for each application member.

An applicator device for applying moisturizers, lotions, ointments, oils or the like to various body parts and difficult to reach areas, such as the back area, posterior area of legs, or the like. The device eliminates the need for assistance from any other individual for applying lotion over difficult to reach areas, and can help prevent or be used to treat rashes, dryness, eczema, psoriasis, and other serious conditions afflicting the skin. The device features an elongated handle attached to an applicator head having apertures for dispensing a solution onto the body of the user. The device includes a compartment for storing a solution in a specific amount and a push button mechanism to activate dispensing of the stored solution from the device.

The scratch panel is a wall-mounting panel to relieve itching in particularly difficult to reach locations, such as the back. It utilizes artificial turf and sand paper like textured surfaces upon which the body may be scratched. Since the panel is wall-mounted, no hands are necessary to relieve bothersome itches. The panel holds adjustable rollers that stretch the artificial turf and allow recycling of the surface. The adjustable rollers allow the user to use different parts of the turf and replace said turf when necessary. The disclosed device includes a scrollable abrasive material stretched across a first scroll and a second scroll wherein the scrolls each lock to fix the scrollable abrasive material in a fixed relation thereto. A holder receives the scrolls in a rotating relation and provides a grip for a user and defines mounting holes to a wall or a piece of furniture.

A device for treating fibrotic tissue, comprising a base formed from a solid material, a plurality of first teeth formed in the base, each of the plurality of first teeth separated from at least one other first tooth by a groove, a handle disposed on the base opposite the plurality of teeth, the handle having a first gripping surface and a second gripping surface disposed adjacent to the first gripping surface and a plurality of second teeth formed in the base and opposite from the second gripping surface, each of the plurality of second teeth separated from at least one other second tooth by a groove.

A skin cleanser includes a surface, such as a silicone surface, with at least one textured portion for transmitting vibrational tapping to the skin. The skin cleanser includes at least one oscillating motor for generating the tapping motion to the skin. The textured portion in touch-points or a wave that transmit the tapping motion to skin in contact with the to portions. The touch-points may include thicker and thinner formations of the touch-points to provide firmer or softer vibrations to the skin. The touch-points are within about 0.5 to 2.5 mm in diameter. One configuration includes multiple oscillating motors configured to provide different vibration frequencies at around 50-300 Hertz and operable simultaneously.

A massage device has a position adjustable handle along a handle slot that extends along a portion of the cane support. The cane support has a support extension portion, or the long substantially linear portion, an arc portion that extends from the support extension in an arc or cure and a head portion. The handle slot may extend a portion of the length of the cane support and along the support extension to the head portion. A vibration device is coupled to the head end of the cane support and may be decoupled from the cane support by a vibration dampening material that extends around the vibration device within a chamber. The vibration dampening material extend out to form a locking ring between the vibration assembly and the massage head. A user can comfortably hold the massage head against their body without excessive vibration in the cane support or handle.

A bodily acupressure and massage article includes: a main member defined by an elongate bottom, an arched top formed in accordance with a top arc radius, a substantially flat front, a substantially flat rear, and arched sides each formed in accordance with a side arc radius and extending from the arched top; a first protrusion downwardly, outwardly extending from a first end of the elongate bottom and semi-circularly formed in accordance with a first protrusion arc radius; and a second protrusion downwardly, outwardly extending from a second end of the elongate bottom and semi-circularly formed in accordance with a second protrusion arc radius, where the top arc radius is larger than the respective side arc radiuses, and the side arc radiuses are each larger than the respective first and second protrusion arc radiuses.
