Description

Medical equipment incidental to oriental medical treatment

Originally born in Sweden, tactile is a mildly stimulating massage method that is said to have the effect of preparing a gentle state, which is currently considered as one of the non-pharmacological treatments for dementia, although it was care to promote the growth of premature infants It is attracting attention as a care system. Twelve types of pathways with different functions in the whole body go around, and physical condition adjustment by meridian therapy using acupuncture points (acupuncture points) along the pathway.

Tactile care, which was originally designed by Swedish nurses to promote the growth of premature babies and is currently used as dementia care

  It is easy to change the massage treatment style with a weak stimulus that suppresses the progression of symptoms necessary for the care of dementia patients and the condition of gentleness and the treatment style with a contact acupuncture that adjusts the whole body state by meridian reaction It is an invention of a treatment instrument that can provide a rhythmic treatment that does not make the person receiving the treatment feel uncomfortable.

  In the case of dementia care, it is necessary to maintain a mild stimulus that slowly wraps around the body gently and slowly over time. In addition, stimulation to the acupuncture points (acupuncture points) associated therewith must be performed in combination. Unlike general treatment, efficient treatment with acupuncture and massage to reduce the burden on dementia patients is required. In other words, there is a need for a surgical tool that can quickly replace both the acupuncture and massage stimuli.

Means to solve the problem

Conventional surgical instruments are used for acupuncture, acupuncture, and massage, and each has its own surgical instrument. In the case of acupuncture, acupuncture is used, and acupuncture is generally used for acupuncture. Replacing each surgical instrument is not easy even for treatments that apply massage, acupuncture, and massage, and it is not easy unless you are a skilled person, and there are many cases where you are confused by the treatment, especially in the case of treatment for patients with dementia The treatment that does not make you feel uncomfortable by speedy and rhythmic replacement of massage and acupuncture on the back of slow and gentle stimulation is important. Secondly, it is an inconvenient environment for both treatments, that is, the existence of each does not interfere with each treatment. It is important to invent the following surgical instruments in consideration of them. We devised a method of attaching a contact heel between the fingers of the hand that provides massage, and contact the palm side (surgical surface). Using a rubber material between the heel and the two fingers that sandwich it, a non-shrinkable material is extended from the back of the contact heel to the fingers on both sides of the hand, and Velcro is used. To attach and fix firmly from the back of both fingers. When wearing in this way, it is required that the fingers on both sides are always closed. This is the style of treatment with contact scissors. By closing the fingers on both sides, the contact heel is supported from the rear surface, so strong stimulation by the heel contact is also possible. Next, when switching to the massage treatment style, release the fingers on both sides and spread the contact heel on the palm. In this case, the contact heel is pulled backwards by the work of the rubber material that connects the fingers on both sides on the side and the non-stretchable material that is fixed to the fingers on both sides of the back of the hand from the back of the contact heel. Even if the contact heel protrudes slightly from the palm side, the contact that protrudes when the palm hits the affected area during massage treatment due to the fact that the fingers on both sides are open and the rubber material that connects between the fingers on both sides The heel is pushed by the affected area and takes the form of moving back. The contact heel has a wide range of attachments, with the finger between the index finger and middle finger, between the middle finger and ring finger, between the ring finger and little finger, and the finger joint Fingertips, middle part, It can be attached to the base part of the body and 9 different parts depending on the purpose of the treatment. Also, when switching from massage treatment to contact acupuncture treatment, close the fingers on both sides to close the rubber material on the front (palm side). Return contact 鍼 to the front by working

Effect of the invention

  By attaching a contact acupuncture to a part of the hand, both stimulation of the acupuncture and massage can be exchanged immediately, and troubles for each treatment can also be eliminated, providing a smooth and rhythmic treatment, This is a treatment tool that allows the patient to receive treatment without causing discomfort. In addition, not only the symptoms of dementia but also changes in physical condition can be read by meridian reactions regardless of the patient's intention, and care for the whole body can be easily provided.

  Current dementia care is generally aimed at slowing the progression of symptoms and suppressing abnormal behavior due to anxiety and other mental conditions. Combining this care with Oriental medicine procedures can be a factor that can provide not only dementia symptoms but also physical condition care to provide mental and physical care.

Current treatment for dementia in oriental medicine is generally treatment that emphasizes prevention, but recently, interest in dementia care has increased from the viewpoint of care after dementia. Inherently, it is possible to provide not only dementia care but also whole body care by pouring the idea of Oriental medicine that places emphasis on physical condition management by the action of blood and blood due to meridian reaction. Along with this, there is a possibility that practitioners aiming at oriental medicine will develop new treatments and develop better dementia care. We pray that this surgical instrument can be the foundation for that. It is also a surgical instrument that can be applied not only to dementia care but also to other symptoms.
