Abstract

The therapy equipment for the human body serves to enhance the feeling of good health by exposure of a part of all of the body, to accoustic irradiation with frequencies in the sub-audio, audio and ultrasonic regions. The therapy equipment consists of at least one oscillator plate which is arranged in bodily contact with the body of the person who sits, lies or stands on it, in which the oscillator plate is made to oscillate by sound waves, whereby corresponding oscillation generators are secured in bodily contact to the oscillator plate. The frequency of the sound waves is adjusted to the reabsorption frequency of individually selected organs and parts of the body, to treat selective individual organs or parts of the human body.
