Description

The The invention relates to a meridian massaging device for the treatment and prophylaxis of pain and discomfort in the area of a spine, the on a in use approximately horizontally arranged surface two same, vertically upward pyramidal, bilateral The spine carries surveys to be ordered.

Such a device is from the DE 296 06 091 U1 known. This is placed in the longitudinal extent, which is about 22 cm, under the spine of a subject. The plate-shaped device has in this position on both sides of a vertebra in about 30 mm lateral distance from each other on a survey with two humps, which are along the spine according to the distance of the knuckles of a fist, ie about 20 mm, spaced. In the region of the vertebra extending between the elevations, these fall approximately to the level of the surface of the device plate, so that the spinous process comes to rest there and has no free space. Due to the relatively small lateral distance of the cusps from each other, these come to lie in each case between the spinous process and the back muscles and attack the spinous process for the purpose of a dynamic massage of the vertebra. However, an effective pressure massage between two vertebrae is prevented in the known embodiment. The device plate has a flat bottom, whereby no compensation of the load distribution on the bilateral cervical spine takes place when a one-sided muscle tension exists. Because of the parallel extension of the device to the spinal column, which is 60 mm wide, it can be positioned only with difficulty by a displacement of the body.

• – Entspannung der umliegenden Muskeln (Abbau der Verspannungen, Lösen der Muskelblockaden gleichzeitig mit Bandscheibendekompressionen);
• – Wiederherstellung der Beweglichkeit der Wirbelsäule;
• – Verbesserung der Blutzirkulation in der Wirbelsäule und in den Arterien, die das Gehirn mit Blut versorgen;
• – Stimulierung der beidseits der Wirbelsäule auf den Meridianen gelegenen Akupunkturpunkten, die mit der Funktion der lebenswichtigen inneren Organen in Zusammenhang stehen.

The invention of the Meridian Massager aims at the prevention and elimination of pain complaints of the spine by:

• - Relaxation of the surrounding muscles (reduction of tension, release of muscle blocks simultaneously with disc decompression);
• - restoration of mobility of the spine;
• - Improving blood circulation in the spine and in the arteries that supply the brain with blood;
• Stimulation of the acupuncture points located on the meridians on both sides of the spine, which are related to the function of the vital internal organs.

It It is known that the currently available massage equipment with mechanical and Elektrovibrationsantrieben only have surface effect and the deeper muscle structure that surrounds the spine, not in the required Relax dimensions. in the On the contrary, the effect of vibration is the reflex spasm of Muscles still increased, which leads to their permanent blockage.

It Object of the invention, the massager initially referred to so improve that in most cases the costly complex Healing by professionals from the different fields of medicine is avoided and one simple and effective, for the biggest part the population acceptable and cost-effective Method for recovery of the spine and to maintain working capacity found by optimal expediency in the application of the equipment distinguished in everyday life, after extreme stress and traveling.

The solution is that the meridian massager has a length of 300 mm and a width of 60 mm and is to be arranged transversely to the spine and longitudinally oriented it carries two rounded end elevations whose distance is 65 mm, and that the meridian massager one of two soil partial surfaces formed bottom, which is at an obtuse angle of one rounded center area of longitudinal extend so that it tilts stored.

advantageous Embodiments are specified in the subclaims.

The solution the task results from the special shape of the massager. The Device whose Length only three hundred millimeters and its width in the middle sixty millimeters and thirty at the ends Millimeters, has a wipeable curved Bottom, from the middle to both ends of the device in the longitudinal direction is formed like a rocker. The upper surface of the device when in use two identical pyramidal Elevations bulging twenty-three millimeters above the surface, the are arranged symmetrically and the top points upwards. The Elevations are oval on all sides and rounded at the top. Your distance over the central axis is five and a half sixty Millimeter. The side surfaces The elevations flow smoothly into the horizontal area on the ground. The total height of the device is seventy Millimeter. The device is hollow and consists of two parts: the device body and a lid. The surface of the device is smooth to possible skin damage when using the device to prevent.

• – Die Druckminderung erreicht man durch Unterlegen einer Rolle unter den Rücken neben dem Massagegerät, wobei ein Teil des Körperdrucks von dem Gerät übernommen wird, 6C. Die Druckkraft des Körpergewichtes auf die Gerätserhebungen wird von Verwendern dadurch selbst bestimmt. Die Schmerzempfindung sollte dabei verträglich sein, anderenfalls wird die gewünschte Muskelentspannung nicht erreicht. Der Abstand zwischen dem Massagegerät und der Rolle bestimmt man individuell abhängig von der Schmerzempfindung. Beim Empfinden von Schmerzen an mehreren Stellen der Wirbelsäule sollte der Benutzer ruhig liegend bleiben, bis es zur Abschwächung des Schmerzes kommt.
• – Die Druckerhöhung wird erreicht, indem der Benutzer die Hände hochstreckt oder hinter den Kopf legt, 6D, bzw. die Beine anwinkelt, 6E.

The cheap device length offers the patient the opportunity to lie on his back place the device under the back of the spine with one hand or with both hands, so that the spine is placed between the pyramidal bumps, 6A , and obstacle-free and loose along the entire spine can be moved along. The relief of the spine is done by the pressure with the body weight on the surveys of the bones; 6B - 6E , In multiple exercises, the muscle blocks are released, improves the blood circulation in the spine and promoted the disc decompression. It also supports the treatment of the internal organs associated with the spinal cord nerves released from compression and improves blood flow in the vertebral arteries. Depending on the intensity of pain (note: in the healthy spine pain during use is not felt), due to the individual sensitivity of users and their constitution (underweight or overweight of the body) it is necessary in the relaxation of the spine, the pressure to decrease the body weight on the device or vice versa:

• - The pressure reduction is achieved by placing a roller under the back next to the massager, whereby a part of the body pressure is taken over by the device, 6C , The compressive force of the body weight on the device surveys is thereby determined by users themselves. The sensation of pain should be tolerated, otherwise the desired muscle relaxation is not achieved. The distance between the massager and the role is determined individually depending on the pain sensation. When experiencing pain in multiple parts of the spine, the user should remain lying down until the pain is alleviated.
• - The pressure increase is achieved by the user puts his hands up or behind the head, 6D , or the legs anwinkelt, 6E ,

Of further can the device with the hands gradually, approximately on its broad span along the spine to a next point be moved and the application can again after the above Scheme to be repeated.

The entire device can be made of non-harmful, after the injection method processed plastic, z. B. POM or ABS, ABS, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene polymers, DIN 16772, POM, Polyacetyl resins, DIN 16781 are manufactured. It is also possible to polishable To use wood species. On the inside of the device, immediately Magnets can be placed under the ends of the elevations.
