Abstract:
A gastrointestinal stimulation devices including a random stimulation delivery mechanism(s), configured to provide stimuli to a bodily tissue in a vicinity of the stimulation capsule, the provided random stimuli being characterized by a stimulation parameter, and a control circuitry in communication with said physical stimulation delivery mechanism, and configured to set and alter the stimulation parameter non-systematically, thereby altering the characterization of the stimuli provided to the bodily tissue. The algorithm may be patient tailored, and may have a learning machinery which responds to data being received from the patient.
Abstract:
A therapeutic apparatus, which treats fatigue of the whole body, is provided. A plurality of speakers/sensors which apply an oscillating pressure to a subject are provided. An airtight chamber and a vacuum pump unit, which change the subject into the state of a negative pressure from the atmospheric pressure, are provided. A control unit adjusts distribution of the oscillating pressure by the output of each speaker/sensor is provided. Further, the control unit adjusts each speaker/sensor, in order that the oscillating pressure of a same extent is applied to a plurality of parts of the body, simultaneously. Thereby, the whole body of the subject can recover from fatigue.
Abstract:
Methods and systems of applying physical stimuli to tissue are disclosed. The methods can include reducing or suppressing pancreatitis in a subject by administering a low magnitude, high frequency mechanical signal on a period basis and for a time sufficient to reduce or suppress pancreatitis. The methods can include enhancing healing of damaged tissue in a subject by administering to the subject a low magnitude, high frequency mechanical signal on a periodic basis and for a time sufficient to treat the damaged tissue. The systems can include a device for generating a low magnitude, high frequency physical signal and a platform for applying the low magnitude, high frequency physical signal to the subject for a predetermined time.

Abstract:
A method of treating a user seated in a seat to reduce the likelihood of deep vein thrombosis (DVT). The method includes providing a vibrator, locating the vibrator in proximity to a lower extremity of the user, and applying a vibratory stimulus to a portion of the lower extremity of the user with the vibrator.
Abstract:
A relaxation and healthcare sofa includes a sofa seat cushion. The sofa seat cushion is provided with a sofa backrest, a first sofa armrest, a second sofa armrest, a sofa base, and a control motherboard. Each of the first and second sofa armrests is provided with a first placement slot, and a first massage airbag and a body fat detection electrode are arranged in the first placement slot. The first sofa armrest is provided with a second placement slot, and a blood pressure detection device and a detection cuff are arranged in the second placement slot. An inflatable component is arranged in the sofa seat cushion, and the inflatable component is in communication with the first massage airbag and the detection cuff. The sofa base is provided with a pressure sensor. The body fat detection electrode, the inflatable component, and the pressure sensor are electrically connected to the control motherboard.
Abstract:
A stool is provided that provides a raised heel squat position to a user that engages the stool. The raised heel squatting position promotes a healthy and productive experience on a toilet. The stool may be collapsible for easier storage and transportation. The stool may be adjustable to provide custom fittings to different size users. Additionally, the stool may be intelligent and may provide a customized immersive experience to a person on a toilet.
