Description

HUMAN BODY FREQUENCY DIAGNOSTIC ANALYSIS APPARATUS AND IMPROVED METHOD OF HEALTH ASSESSMENT BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a human body frequency diagnostic analysis apparatus and an improved method of health assessment, and more particularly to the human body frequency diagnostic analysis apparatus and improved method of health assessment capable of diagnosing and analyzing a human body frequency and examining health conditions.
Description of the Related Art
In a theory of Chinese medicine, the human body has a delicate distribution system responsible for transmitting microscopic matters such as “qi” and “blood”, and such transmission and distribution network is called a human meridian system for communicating internal organs and limbs and circulating qi and blood. The human meridian system has larger channels called “meridian channels” and smaller channels called “collateral channels”. Further, the theory of Chinese medicine also believes that each human organ has a frequency, and a frequency imbalance of an organ indicates a problem of the organ. Western medicine also advocates that prevention is better than cure, and suggests us to have regular medical check-ups. The main purpose of the regular medical check-up is to understand an individual’s health conditions and detect early symptoms or risk factors, and have treatments at an early stage. However, a general medical check-up is only applicable for examining whether or not there is a change in an organ, but it cannot prevent the change of the organ in advance, so that people usually see a doctor or seek for medical help and treatment when they are already ill and the patients may fail to recover their original health status or even have sequelae or disabilities. Therefore, preventive medicine becomes increasingly important and focuses on preserving, promoting, and maintaining the health of the general public, a specific group, or an individual. The preventive medicine primarily includes health promotion and disease prevention, wherein the health promotion mainly covers lifestyle, living environment, and healthcare system, and disease prevention mainly covers the areas of assessing and improving a person’s health based on the risk factors of health before one gets sick, and further restricts the development of the disease.
In view of the aforementioned problems, the inventor of the present invention conducted extensive researches and experiments, and finally provided a feasible solution to overcome the problems of the prior art.

After the detection unit 11 receives the feedback frequency, the feedback frequency is transmitted to the control unit 13, and the computing unit 14 computes and compares the transmission frequency with the feedback frequency to generate the dual line spectrum, and further compares with the database 17 to generate the detected information to discover any human organ imbalance and prepare a preventive treatment, and the dual line spectrum and the detected information are displayed on the screen 15. It is noteworthy that the maximum drop value in the frequency section of the dual line spectrum indicates a human body frequency imbalance (as shown in FIG. 4, the maximum drop value is located at the position of 6.6Hz).
With reference to FIGS. 1 and 3 for the detection of a human body meridian frequency imbalance, the heartbeat sensor 12 is connected to a human pulse (or a heart position) to obtain the number of heartbeats, and the number of heartbeats is inputted into the input unit 16. After the computing unit 14 computes to generate a plurality of predicted frequency values, the predicted frequency value is compared with the maximum drop value in the frequency section of the dual line spectrum, wherein the maximum drop value indicates a human body meridian frequency imbalance. In FIG. 5, the number of heartbeats of human body equal to 72 is inputted, and a plurality of predicted frequencies is obtained after computation, and the predicted frequency is compared with the dual line spectrum. The maximum drop value is situated at a position of 6.6Hz, and thus showing that the human stomach meridians have problems.

For example, when the maximum drop value is situated at the position of 6.6Hz, the frequency of the rhythm machine is adjusted to 6.6Hz, so that the rhythm machine will output a rhythm wave of 6.6Hz to adjust the human body frequency.
Further, an essential oil may be used in the method to improve the imbalance of human organs or meridians.
Therefore, an imbalance of human organ or meridian frequency and the health condition of a patient can be detected, and the human body or meridian frequency can be adjusted.
