20090143841 | Potential Application Apparatus - Provided is a potential application apparatus capable of preventing hypertrophy of adipose cells, thereby securely preventing deposition of fat and controlling obesity effectively without any side effects. | 06-04-2009 |
20100152819 | METHOD FOR ENHANCING BLOOD AND LYMPH FLOW IN THE EXTREMITIES - Methods for enhancing blood and lymph flow in the extremities of a human subject are disclosed. In one aspect, the methods rely on a stimulus effective to displace the skin of a plantar or palmer surface of the subject, thereby enhancing blood and lymph flow in the extremity associated with the stimulated plantar or palmer surface. In another aspect, the methods rely on an electrical stimulus to directly stimulate cutaneous receptors in a plantar or palmer surface of the subject, thereby enhancing blood and lymph flow in the extremity associated with the stimulated cutaneous receptors. Apparatus for enhancing blood and lymph flow in the extremities of a human subject according to the methods of the present invention are also disclosed. | 06-17-2010 |
20100179621 | ELECTRODES FOR APPLYING AN ELECTRIC FIELD IN-VIVO OVER AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME - As compared to conventional electrodes, the electrode configurations disclosed herein minimize irritation and damage to the skin when they are placed in contact with a patient's body over extended of time. The electrodes are formed from a conductive substrate coated with a thin dielectric material, and a plurality of open spaces pass through the electrodes. Those open spaces are distributed and sized to permit moisture on the surface of the patient's body to escape when the electrode is placed in contact with the patient's body. One intended use for the electrodes is for treating tumors by applying an AC electric field with specific frequency and field strength characteristics over an extended period of time. | 07-15-2010 |
20100324630 | SPATIALLY SELECTIVE NERVE STIMULATION IN HIGH-FREQUENCY NERVE CONDUCTION BLOCK AND RECRUITMENT - A method of providing therapy to a patient using at least one electrode is provided. The patient has a neural tissue region that is relatively close to the at least one electrode, and a neural tissue region that is relatively far from the at least one electrode. The method comprises conveying time-varying electrical energy from the electrode(s) into the relatively close and far neural tissue regions, wherein the electrical energy has a frequency and amplitude that blocks stimulation of the relatively close neural tissue region, while stimulating the relatively far neural tissue region. | 12-23-2010 |
20110152975 | Plurality of Electrons for Use in the Restoration of a Patient's Health - Embodiments of the present invention relate to a non-invasive stimulatory adjustment of the body's own self-repair-system using a plurality of electrons.
