Abstract:
The present invention provides a spa comprising a spa wall, a bar top region disposed on top of the spa wall, a cup holder disposed in the bar top region and a thermoelectric module for cooling the bar top region so that a beverage disposed within the cup holder remains cool, wherein the thermoelectric module is in thermal contact with the bar top region
Abstract:
The present invention provides a spa comprising a spa area for a spa user and a thermoelectric module providing localized cooling for the spa user in the spa area, wherein the spa includes a spa wall and the thermoelectric module is substantially in contact with an outside surface of the spa wall adjacent to the spa area. The thermoelectric module is disposed substantially behind the back of the user when the user is in the spa area such that the thermoelectric module is maintains the spa user's torso at a lower temperature than that of the user's extremities.
Abstract:
A therapy device for specifically local short-term treatment of infectious illnesses transmitted by droplet infection, such as colds, by a heated dry current of air which is warmed up and acts directly and in a locally restricted manner onto the epithelium of the nasal cavities and the adjacent areas in the nasal/throat region. The therapy device profits of the knowledge that it is easier to combat symptoms caused by colds, when the dry heated air current which is used has a relatively high temperature in the range of noticeably above 50° C.
Abstract:
A manual cold therapy foot massage device, which consists of a long cylindrical rod that is hollow in nature. Two rollers connected to each end of the cylindrical rod are wider in diameter than the cylindrical rod allowing the device to roll back and forth easily over a flat surface while being used. The cylindrical rod is filled with a non-freezable gel and wrapped with a flexible reusable cold compress that is also gel filled. The device can be placed in the freezer to reduce the gel filled cylinder and cold compress to freezing temperatures and removed for treatment to provide an ice therapy massage for the bottom of the foot or other affected areas.
Abstract:
A person support surface comprises a multitude of inflatable cells. The cells are inflated and deflated to adjust an interface pressure between the person support surface and a person supported by the surface.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a hypertension descending device capable of curing a hypertension disease by stimulating a patient's Acupuncture point Renying (or referred to as “carotid sinus”) by repeated cold pressure vibration. The hypertension descending device is designed to allow common users to use it easily, and provides a good hypertension descent effect by stimulating the patient's carotid sinus (Acupuncture point Renying) portion while maintaining a uniform cooling temperature of the contact tip, which is in contact with the patient's carotid sinus (Acupuncture point Renying) portion.
Abstract:
Devices and methods for cooling an electromechanical chest compression device. A blower or fan forces air through the device and a metal foil distributes heat. The temperature of the device and the patient is measured and the processor controls the operation of the device based on the measured temperature.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a fitness device (1) in the form of a garment, comprising at least one skin stimulation means (5) which is actuated by fluid pressure and, in a stimulation area (13, 16), acts on the skin surface of a wearer (2) of the fitness device. Such fitness devices are known as low pressure suits. To enhance the action of said fitness devices, the skin stimulation means (5) is transferred according to the invention from a low pressure state, in which a low pressure acts on the skin surface (19) in the stimulation area (20), into an overpressure state, in which an overpressure acts on the skin surface (19) in the stimulation area (18).
Abstract:
A personal sexual aid and a two person sexual aid adapted for chilling. The personal sexual aid a hollow, substantially cylindrical member having a thermal insulating property and freeze gel material having a large thermal mass. The hollow, substantially cylindrical member includes: a side surface; a sealed, substantially dome-shaped front end; and a rear end. The freeze gel material fills the hollow, substantially cylindrical member. The two-person sexual aid includes two hollow, substantially cylindrical members coupled at their rear ends by a coupling section.
Abstract:
A massage tool for use in performing an ice massage including an anchor extending from the bottom of a base for extending into a mold for receiving a block of ice. The massage tool includes a handle by which the tool can be manipulated, which provides thermal isolation from the ice attached to the tool. The tool is weighted to reduce the amount of additional force needed to apply the desired pressure during the massage, thereby reducing hand and muscle fatigue of the therapist providing the massage.
