Abstract:
A massage and cosmetic product dispensing assembly includes a cosmetic product storage container, a member for dispensing the cosmetic product stored in the container, a massage and cosmetic product application device. The massage and application device includes a fixed support which is fixed relative to the container, peripheral massage members connected to the fixed support, a central support which is movable relative to the fixed support and suitable for actuating the dispensing member, and central massage members connected to the movable central support.
Abstract:
A therapeutic massage device, specifically a manual scalp massager that can both provide a soothing sensation to the user and also stimulate the sebaceous glands and hair follicles of a person's scalp, resulting in a healthier scalp and better looking hair. The device should efficiently, and without harm or discomfort to the user, be able to pinch the tightly drawn scalp of the user, thereby squeezing the sebaceous glands and improving oil production. The device should also be easy to use and should not require an inordinate amount of effort by the operator. In operation, the device can massage one's scalp by alternating between constricting and releasing the skin.
Abstract:
A manual scalp massager simulating the effect of two sets of fingers placed at two bipolar transverse positions opposing each other to squeeze the scalp skin together in a “broad-pinching” action. The device comprises two jaw-like members lined at each opposing edge with a row of closely-packed fingertip-like rubber spheres. The embodiment is supported by two pairs of A-shaped frames hinged at each vertex where the pair of jaw members is attached to one pair of distal ends, while handlebars are attached to the other pair of distal ends. Coupled with the highly-tacky fingertip-shaped rubber protrusions to maximize gripping of the tightly drawn scalp skin, this simultaneous downward and lateral pressure applied to the jaw members squeezes the contacting scalp skin without pulling the surrounding hair thereby stimulating the scalp through the “squeezing-out” of its old fatty oils, increases flow of the blood vessels, and helps promote hair growth.
Abstract:
A cosmetic device comprises a support member; a cap member attached to the support member and having a front face; a vibration actuator disposed inside the cap member, which produces vibration for providing massage effect on a skin; and an uneven surface member as an outermost layer covering at least the front face of the cap member. The uneven surface is configured to prevent denudation of a treatment agent applied on the skin.
Abstract:
The garments and method disclosed herein serve to combat cellulite and/or venous and lymphatic insufficiency in at least one desired area of a lower and/or upper member of the body. The garments preferably comprise an elastic knitted shell having an inner face and an outer face adapted to restrain with a degressive rate of pressure of the distal extremity of the member toward its proximal extremity, and compromise a projection structure placed on a portion of the inner face corresponding to said area. The projection structures are capable of locally modifying the curvature of the knitted shell, or other material, when the garment is worn thereby increasing the compression exerted by the garment in said area.
Abstract:
A finger-pressure substitutive stimulator comprises a supple, net-like sheet member having many stripe-like projections on one surface thereof and formed of various hard or semi-hard synthetic resin materials. The finger-pressure substitutive stimulator is fixed to the surface of the skin of a human body at a part to be treated using an appropriate fixing meansnulle.g., commercially available adhesive tapes, bandages, and supportersnullor an adhesive sheet fastened to the smooth rear surface of the sheet member; it serves to ease or remove pain by correcting such ailments as rheumatism, neuralgia, shoulder stiffness, lumbago, and visceral disorders. The stripe-like projections pressed against the skin surface provide uniform, sustained stimulation to the peripheral nerves in the human body surface layer over the entire wide region to which the stimulator is attached and effectively correct disorders and abnormalities of the human body, thereby removing or easing pains. Due to the net-like structure and suppleness of the sheet member, one or a small number of stimulators can provide effective and sufficient stimulation to a wider region than conventional stimulators while easily conforming to a curved shape of a part to be treated and ensuring air permeability to the skin surface.
Abstract:
A facial massager includes a hollow cylindrical roller having an outer surface, an inner surface opposing the outer surface and defining a through hole, and a plurality of openings extending from the outer surface of the hollow cylindrical roller to the inner surface. The through hole allows an inner roller to be coaxially sleeved therein. The diameter of the inner roller is smaller than that of the through hole such that the inner roller is able to axially rotate inside the through hole. The inner roller is coupled to a handle for a user to hold to by a connecting member in a manner that the inner roller can be forced by the handle controlled by the user to coaxially rotate inside the through hole and press against the inner surface of the hollow cylindrical roller to urge the hollow cylindrical roller to roll over a skin surface of the user. While the hollow cylindrical roller is in contact with the skin surface of the user in a manner that one end of the opening is sealed by the skin surface and another end of the opening is simultaneously sealed by the inner roller, the sealed opening would impose a sucking effect to the skin surface to suck out stains inside skin pores and horny layers on the skin.
Abstract:
An apparatus including a shoe upper mounted coextensively over a shoe sole, with the shoe sole including a switch member to actuate selectively a vibratory plate in cooperation with a battery housing mounted to the shoe upper at a rear end thereof. The vibratory plate includes a replaceable polymeric sole pad mounted coextensively thereover of a plurality of pads, to include the pads formed with projections and various degrees of stiffening agents directed through the pad to direct various levels of vibratory energy to an individual's foot.
