Definitions

  • the invention belongs to the area of medicine, in particular physiotherapy, disease prevention and disorder treatment by using amber.
  • the invention is related to measures (devices) used in physiotherapy, disease prevention and disorder treatment that have positive effect on a human (or other living organism/individual), enhance human's physical health and boost (stimulate) his immune system.
  • the invention is related to usage of natural amber in physiotherapy products and/or equipment.
  • Physiotherapy is treatment by employing physical factors: water, heat, light, sound, electricity etc.
  • Physiotherapy is the science that focuses on the effect of natural and non-natural physical factors on a human body and their application in disease prevention, disorder treatment and rehabilitation.
  • Physiotherapy both in theory and in practice, is primarily based on treatment by physical actions that influence an organism though reflexes and neurohumoral responses, i.e. regulates physiological and biochemical bodily functions, stimulates general activity of nervous system and biologically active substances (mediators, hormones, hormonoids) and directly influences through physical and chemical reaction.
  • Physiotherapy is one of the safest, most natural and oldest ways of treatment that applies principles and methods extending back many thousands of years, thus remaining a relevant branch of science throughout the history and a basis for development of new devices, all serving the common goal of maintaining balance between a human (a living organism) and his ambience to sustain long and quality lives.
  • Amber is a fossilized tree resin, a mineral of organic nature that has formed as a result of solidification of coniferous plant resin.
  • amber is a fossilized material that has absorbed the heat of the sun and the energy of blue sky and has been warming and protecting humans from prehistoric times to present.
  • Research activity aimed at studying amber at various angles has intensified during the recent decades, after it was noticed that natural amber possessed sufficiently intensive and positive effect on a living organism, while animals were noticed to be subject to direct effect (e.g. dogs, cats). Yet, certain questions remain unanswered, such as the actual effect of amber in general and why and how the biological field of humans (or any other living organism) is able to experience the 'compensating' effect of amber.
  • Another known patent is Chinese patent No. CN101773353 published 14 July, 2010.
  • the patent describes a rehabilitation/prevention/treatment pillow that can be filled with certain herbs, the scents of which boost immune system and stimulate certain nerve centres, depending on the types and sorts of herbs used.
  • the limitation of this pillow is the absence of heating function or amber; the function of the pillow is based solely on aroma.
  • Russian patent No. RU2128984 was published 20 April, 1999.
  • the patent describes an amber tub made of marble panel with ledge and a level layer of poured amber gravel.
  • the total mass of amber gravel is about 40 kg.
  • the marble panel together and the layer of amber gravel are heated to 37-38°C. Duration of preventive/healing procedure: 15-30 minutes.
  • the invention possesses several limitations: the procedure is difficult to perform in home conditions because such tub (basically, a table with ledge) requires space; heating of the marble panel with 40 kg of amber requires a number of specialized equipment and large amount of energy (electricity); the amber tub is practically inaccessible for personal use due to high costs/investments, as the cost of 40 kg of amber is rather high; in addition, straight lying on amber gravel is not a relaxation procedure as such.
  • Another inadequacy is that a person in need of such a procedure (radiculitis, joint diseases, post surgery etc.) would experience difficulties climbing into and out of such a tub.
  • amber table for physiotherapy.
  • This amber table is very similar to the amber tub (RU2128984) described previously.
  • the main difference is that the surface of the amber table is completely smooth, made of polished glued amber planks and contains infrared radiation sources and/or visible light emitting/heating energy sources underneath that cause amber start radiating ions that stimulate energy circulation down the energy channels of a human body.
  • the amber table possesses other drawbacks.
  • amber will start to smell. Presence of smell signals about a fairly intensive local heating of amber that begins to lose its natural properties.
  • glue used in the structure also heats up (glue is usually softer than amber) and also starts to smell. This smell may cause allergy to not only human's lungs (respiratory system), but also skin (in particular, head area).
  • the patent describes heated or cooled pillow that can be used by a human both in sitting and lying positions. Heating is provided through electricity, while cooling function is achieved by filling the pillow with cold water or ice. However, amber filling is not used in such a pillow. The patent also fails to indicate the optimum temperature. Furthermore, the pillow does not radiate ions, with its effect being merely the one of warming/cooling.
  • the purpose of this invention is to create an actively heated product (e.g. a mattress, pillow, blanket, slippers, item of clothing, or separate element(s) of clothing),
  • an actively heated product e.g. a mattress, pillow, blanket, slippers, item of clothing, or separate element(s) of clothing
  • the essence of the invention is the product (a structure) that combines knowledge about:
  • the designed actively heated physiotherapic product (a mattress, pillow, blanket, item of clothing or separate element(s) of clothing) is very comfortable and safe, relatively soft, can be of any shape, can be used in sitting, semi-lying and lying, as well as side-lying position etc .
  • the product contains natural amber
  • a required temperature is maintained for a required period of time by using special power supply (with appropriate sensors);
  • retainers a person can engage in other activity in the course of the procedure
  • the preheated product can be laid on after cutting off the voltage, as the temperature of amber is further maintained by human body, which is normally higher than 26°C and lower than 50°C (if the latter temperature limit is reached, a complete destruction of primary properties of amber starts).
  • Fig. 1 depicts the overview scheme of an actively heated mattress filled with natural amber that has to be secured to a human body (or be laid on by a human) and be used for disease prevention, health enhancing treatment and therapy of common disorders.
  • Fig. 2 depicts the overview scheme of an actively heated pillow filled with natural amber that has to be secured to a human body (or be laid on by a human / used to lay one's head on) and be used for disease prevention, health enhancing treatment and therapy of common disorders.
  • Fig. 3 provides the picture of the mentioned mattress as one of the end products.
  • amber can improve biophysical aspects of human organism and separate organs, improve healing of tissues and organs and functioning of central nervous and digestive systems. It has been noticed that under the influence of amber, the number of cancer diseases, inflammatory, degenerative processes in joints and top layers of skin tends to decrease, ear, eye, stomach and tooth pain is suppressed, rheumatism is treated.
  • amber is also used in treatment against urinary bladder, stomach illnesses, bronchitis, jaundice, myopia, cataract, heart diseases and angina. Amber removes kidney stones, stimulates urination.
  • the field created by a human body when it is close to amber can be reasonably considered to have positive effect on the organism of the same human who has created that field through interaction.
  • optimum temperature (26-40°C) of amber the effect of this induced field is significantly stronger, though it also exists at lower temperatures.
  • non-sanded or non-polished amber is stronger. The reason for this may be illustrated and explained by the fact that the area of surface of natural amber stones is relatively large and irregular - neither flat, nor dimensional.
  • the field induced under the influence of natural amber is 'dimensional', while polished/sanded amber induces the field that lacks certain components, i.e. becomes 'flat'.
  • Fig. 1 depicts the overview scheme of an actively heated mattress with natural amber filling that must be secured to a human body (or be laid on) and used for disease prevention, health enhancing treatment and therapy of common disorders.
  • Actively heated mattress (1) as in Fig. 1 consists of: double mattress frame (2), sewing threads (3), shaped bags filled with natural amber (4), actively heated semi-rigid panels (5), power input socket (6) and power supply (7).
  • the double frame (2) acts as the backing of mattress (1) and consists of solid fabric layer on one side (bottom) and double-layer fabric on the other side (upper) with natural amber placed between the layers of the upper side.
  • the fabric used for the double frame (2) is natural and non-allergic, e.g. natural linen.
  • the layers of the upper side of the double frame (2) are further stitched together as shown in Fig. 1 using appropriate sewing equipment.
  • the depicted stitches (3) create pockets that are filled with natural amber.
  • the same sewing equipment is used to stitch up the pockets (with the sewing machine moving down the edge, along the perimeter of the mattress), thus forming bags (4) with natural amber secured inside.
  • Sewing threads (3) are also made of non-allergic material.
  • a semi-rigid actively heated panel (5) is inserted into the formed double frame (2) (square, rectangular or any other regular/irregular geometric shape) along the perimeter of the frame.
  • the actively heated panel (5) is semi-rigid and elastic rather than soft, in order to keep the stable shape of the mattress.
  • the bonding strength between the panel and the material of the double frame (2) must be high enough to prevent the panel from sliding.
  • the application requires electricity to heat the actively heated panel (5) and complies with all relevant safety criteria and requirements.
  • the actively heated semi-rigid panel (5) contains power input socket (6), usually supplied with 12 V DC power.
  • a power supply (7) is provided to convert ⁇ 220 V AC into 12 V DC.
  • One wire lead of the power supply is connected to the mains power line ( ⁇ 220 V), another - to the power input socket (6).
  • a power source (7) is required and must support the functions of heating the actively heated panel (5) to the temperature (ideal: 26 to 40°C) and maintaining the temperature for the period of time (ideal: 30 to 40 minutes) as required by the routine, which depends on the scope/need of the procedure.
  • Fig. 1 provides the overview of a mattress (1) for a person to lie on the back and perform prevention/healing treatment for the back area. Nevertheless, the same ideas, principles and knowledge may be applied to create a variety of other actively heated products with natural amber filling e.g. a pillow, blanket, belt, band, slippers, item of clothing, separate element(s) of clothing etc.
  • Fig. 2 provides the overview scheme of an actively heated pillow with natural amber filling to put against a human's body (or for a person to lie on/put his head on) and perform preventive treatment, health enhancing treatment and therapy of common disorders .

Abstract

La présente invention concerne la fabrication d'un produit chauffé de manière active (par exemple un matelas, un oreiller, une couverture, des pantoufles, un vêtement, ou des pièces d'habillement isolées) garni d'ambre, et permettant de réchauffer une ou plusieurs zones du corps humain. Lorsque l'ambre naturel est chauffé à une température allant de 26 à 40 °C, il commence à irradier des ions de manière intensive. Les ions stimulent de manière positive les points d'énergie, le système immunitaire et les voies de signalisation du corps humain, le fonctionnement des centres nerveux, la transmission de l'influx nerveux, le métabolisme, etc. Ce produit de kinésithérapie chauffé de manière active (matelas, oreiller, couverture, vêtement ou pièces d'habillement isolées) est très confortable et sans danger, relativement souple, peut se présenter sous n'importe quelle forme, peut être utilisé en position assise, semi-assise et couchée, y compris sur le côté, etc. L'intensité du champ biologique induit par l'ambre étant relativement élevée, le produit peut être utilisé, non seulement en vue de la prévention de maladies et dans le cadre de procédures d'amélioration de la santé, mais également à des fins thérapeutiques contre des affections communes et plus graves, séparément ou conjointement avec d'autres produits et méthodes de traitement.
