Abstract: A non-invasive method and apparatus are provided for treating orthostatic hypotension and for reducing the effects caused there from. An increase in blood and fluid flow in the lower extremities is achieved by vibrating the lower body of the individual at a frequency in the range of 10-120 Hz. The apparatus includes a strap for being secured to a body part of the individual's lower extremities, e.g., the sole of one's foot, and a displacement sensor which senses any movement of the body part. The displacement sensor continuously sends signals to a processor of the apparatus which indicate whether there was any movement of the body part. If the displacement sensor did not sense any substantial movement of the body part for a predetermined period of time the processor sends a signal to a vibrating mechanism. The signal activates the vibrating mechanism causing vibration of the body part for increasing blood and fluid flow in the lower extremities. The vibrating mechanism causes vibration for a predetermined period of time.

Abstract translation: 提供一种非侵入性的方法和装置，用于治疗体位性低血压并减少由此产生的影响。 通过以10-120Hz的频率振动个体的下半身来实现下肢血液和流体流动的增加。 该装置包括用于固定到个体下肢的身体部分（例如脚底）的皮带，以及感测身体部位的任何运动的位移传感器。 位移传感器连续地向设备的处理器发送信号，该处理器指示身体部位是否有任何移动。 如果位移传感器在预定时间段内没有感测到身体部分的任何实质性移动，则处理器将信号发送到振动机构。 信号激活振动机构，引起身体部位的振动，以增加下肢的血液和流体流动。 振动机构使振动达预定时间。

Abstract: Inflammation of the muscles of the posterior thoracic spine can lead to a number of physical ailments. This inflammation can have a number of causes, one typical cause being overuse in a work environment leading to stress or tension within these muscles. Although many related physical ailments can be treated with medication and a properly prescribed and maintained exercise program, at present, an effective, simple-to-use and inexpensive means for correcting the position of the thoracic spine is not available. Embodiments of the present invention provides a resilient pad that is adapted to be interposed between the upper thoracic spine of a user and a substantially hard surface.

Abstract: An exercise device for promoting the natural movement and agility of facet joints in the spinal column. The device is an exercise surface formed by pairs of spherical elements arranged along a longitudinal axis. The spheres are dimensioned such that, when a user lies supine on the exercise surface, the spheres protrude up into the areas near the facet joints along both sides of the spinal column and massage the supportive muscle and ligament tissue that supports the posterior spine. The spherical elements may be freely rotating spheres mounted in a frame or partial spherical elements molded into a base material.
