Abstract:
With respect to a pressing tool main body 10B of a pressing tool for a pelvic floor muscle group 1B, a convex upper surface has a hardness of 10 to 20, which is a value of the International Rubber Hardness Degree (IRHD) complying with JIS K 6253, when the pressing tool main body 10B is in an initial state in which the pressing tool main body 10B is subject to no external force and is not squashed, and has a hardness of 25 to 35, which is a value of the International Rubber Hardness Degree (IRHD) complying with JIS K 6253, when the pressing tool main body 10B is subject to an external force, and a height from a seat surface to the convex upper surface becomes a half of the height from the seat surface to the convex upper surface in the initial state.

Abstract:
A portable chest exercise pad for exercise has a convex pad having upper and lower tapered ends, a flat bottom surface extending between the upper and lower tapered ends, a convex top surface separated from the bottom surface, the convex top surface having an apex between opposing upper and lower inclined surfaces that rise respectively from the upper and lower tapered ends toward the apex, and left and right sides extending between the upper and lower tapered ends and separated from each, the left and right sides having opposing cutout regions positioned so that a width of the convex pad increases moving in the length direction from the apex toward the upper tapered end.
Abstract:
An acupressure pillow includes pressure members that are interconnected by an elastic member and arranged so that, when the user rests a body part (e.g., head or neck) on the pillow between the pressure members, the pressure members automatically adjust to accommodate the body part and produce pressure on the body part due at least in part to the elastic member, which biases the pressure members toward one another. Thus, the pressure exerted on the body part may have different vector components, including some pressure produced essentially perpendicular to the pillow surface on which the body part rests and some pressure produced at other angles due to the shape of the pressure members and the inward force on the pressure members produced by the elastic member.
Abstract:
Devices for soothing a baby may simulate the feel of massage by a caregiver with a circular massaging motion. An apparel component, such as a swaddle blanket or sleep sack, may be configured to receive the device. At least one clip may facilitate placement of the device.
Abstract:
A system for providing a therapeutic treatment to a mammal for a selected mammalian condition includes a wearable member configured for use about an upper torso of a mammal and an energy module configured to generate energy waves in an energy range particularly configured to provide a stimulation that is therapeutically effective treatment for the selected mammalian condition. The energy module is adapted to be supported by the wearable member about the upper torso of the mammal. The wearable member also includes a therapy delivery portion configured to position the energy module at a treatment site about the upper torso. The underlying idea of the teachings herein is to deliver non-invasive, non-electrical-inducing therapies and energies such as vibroacoustic, physioacoustic, kinesitherapy and phototherapy, through wearable and non-wearable apparatuses to animals and humans for therapeutic treatment.
Abstract:
A gas supply system comprises a person-support surface, a garment, and a gas supply. The person-support surface includes a chamber configured to contain a gas therein. The garment includes a chamber configured to contain a gas therein. The gas supply is configured to supply a gas to both the garment and the person-support surface.
Abstract:
Method and devices for the prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers are described in which a portable support assembly may be worn by a bed-stricken individual around particular regions of the body where pressure ulcers tend to form. The portable support assembly may generally include one or more individual fluid filled pods which are enclosed entirely within an inner fluid pad localized along a central portion. Both the one or more pods and inner fluid pad are then enclosed entirely by another layer of fluid within an outer fluid pad which extends over the entire assembly. Each of the fluid layers may be secured to an outer shell which is relatively stiffer than the fluid layers and may restrict or limit the expansion or movement of the fluid pods and/or fluid pads.
Abstract:
An adjustable bed frame assembly includes a mattress retaining bracket secured to the adjustable bed frame assembly in a shipment orientation for shipping the adjustable bed frame assembly, wherein the mattress retaining bracket, when re-secured in a mattress securing orientation, stops the mattress from sliding during operation of the actuator. The retaining bracket may be secured to the mattress platform. In embodiments, the retaining bracket is secured to the head end of the mattress platform, while in other embodiments, the retaining bracket is secured to the foot end of the mattress platform.
Abstract:
A massager is provided with a housing having a first guide oriented in a longitudinal direction. A carriage is oriented in the housing and cooperates with the first guide for translation. A motor is supported upon one of the carriage and the housing and operably connected to the other for translating the carriage along the first guide. A second guide is mounted to the housing and oriented generally canted relative to the longitudinal direction. A massage member is pivotally connected to the carriage and pivotally connected to the second guide such that as the carriage is translated along the first guide, and angular orientation of the massage member is rotated relative to the carriage.
