Abstract:
For the treatment of spinal damage in medical physiotherapy, the patient's spine is stressed via the pelvis by longitudinal forces on the legs in such a way that the setting of displaced spinal components is promoted and the muscles are strengthened. With this device the tensile forces are applied to the feet by spring components (12a, 12b) which are tensioned by means of cables (11a, 11b) from the movements of the pins (10a, 10b) of linear movement components (9a, 9b) driven by an electric motor. The frequency and amplitude of these tensile forces can be changed via a control unit and thus phase shifts between the forces acting on the legs can be adjusted. During the exercises the patient can adjust the exercise programme by actuating controls connected to the supporting grips (19, 19b). The success of the therapy can be improved by fitting heating elements in the brackrest to provide heat treatment for the patient's muscles.
Abstract:
A vibrating, rotating massager (1). The massager (1) includes a vibration means (20) mounted to a fixed axle (16) about which a spherical massager head (30) rotates. The vibration of the massage head (30) is isolated from the handle (10) of the massager (1) by elastomeric bushings (14).
Abstract:
Magnetic field generating therapeutic appliance which applies an alternating magnetic field to the body to promote the circulation of the blood, thereby relieving such conditions as stiffness or pain in parts of the body. A typical conventional therapeutic appliance of this type has a magnetic field generator housed within a case and is adapted to be operated manually by the person being treated, or a third person, to apply an alternating magnetic field to the affected parts. The prior-art appliance of this type cannot provide a satisfactory magnetic therapeutic effect because of the narrow working range of the fluctuating field and the small magnetic field intensity. In addition, since it is necessary to move the therapeutic appliance to operate it, its operation is not easy. Acording to this invention, a plurality of cases (2) each housing a magnetic field generator (1) are connected to form a pivotted chain, and the cases (2) at either end are provided with connecting members (3), (4), respectively, which can be connected to each other. According to this invention, the therapeutic appliance can be wound and secured around the affected part, and there is no need for special operations during the therapy such as moving the appliance. Moreover, the fluctuating field produced by each magnetic field generator (1) acts strongly over a wide range, including the affected part, thereby increasing the magnetic therapeutic effect.

Eine Duschvorrichtung zum Duschen mit einer Behandlungsflüssigkeit, wie einer Sole, weist eine Duschkabine (21) mit einem Behandlungsraum (20) auf, in der eine Verspritzeinrichtung (6) zum Spritzen der Behandlungsflüssigkeit sowie eine Bestrahlungseinrichtung (7) zur Abgabe von UV-Strahlung an den Körper der duschenden Person auf.
Abstract:
A back support consisting of a base (1) and geometrical bodies (3) applied on at least one side thereof in form of pyramids or cones and/or cylinders and/or wedges and/or semispheres or similar. The bodies are arranged in at least two straight lines parallel to one another running lengthwise in the center. The distance between the lines corresponds approximately to the width of a vertebral body. The distance between each geometrical body (3) arranged on a straight line corresponds roughly to the length of a vertebral body.
Abstract:
Support dorsal comportant une base (1) et des corps géométriques (3) appliqués sur au moins un côté de celle-ci et ayant la forme de pyramides et/ou de cônes et/ou de cylindres et/ou de coins et/ou de demi-sphères ou similaire. Les corps (3) sont disposés sur au moins deux lignes droites parallèles s'étendant longitudinalement vers le centre et dont l'écartement correspond approximativement à la largeur d'un corps vertébral. La distance séparant respectivement les corps (3) disposés sur une ligne droite correspond approximativement à la longueur d'un corps vertébral.

Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a vibrating stimulus pad configured to easily attach to an unwell body region to which attachment is difficult such as a joint region. The vibrating stimulus pad of the present disclosure includes: a flexible main body; a drug layer attached to a bottom surface of the main body and formed of an additive mixed with a drug and formed of anti-inflammatory analgesic drugs; a vibrating module attached on a top surface of the main body and including a vibration motor and a battery; and a plurality of legs installed along the perimeter of the main body and being adhesive. Through this configuration in which the main body is formed of a flexible material, and the plurality of legs are adhesive and are attached along the perimeter of the main body, the vibrating stimulus pad may be easily attached on an unwell body region to which attachment is difficult such as a joint region.
Abstract:
A massage control system for a vehicle. The massage control system includes an input for receiving an instruction for control of a massage parameter to a massaging element of the vehicle. The massage control system has a monitoring module arranged to monitor the instruction received by the input over time to determine a massage usage trend. The massage control system also has a control module arranged to receive the massage usage trend and output a massage parameter demand to the massaging element based on the massage usage trend.
