Description

[0001] HARNESS APPARATUS FOR TREATMENT [0002]

The present invention relates to a therapeutic harness device, and more particularly, to a therapeutic harness device for treating muscular pain, inflammation, tissue damage, and the like of a shoulder portion using micro currents.

In general, a weak current (current) flows in the human body. This current causes the cerebrum and the organ to transmit information to each other to maintain health. When the health is poor, the living body current weakens and becomes unstable As well as micro-currents metabolism and blood circulation to actively help, and ultimately to enhance the natural healing power is known to have a function. In other words, proper microcurrent (about 0.06 mA) can be used for weak alkalinity of blood, normalization of blood pressure, normalization of blood pressure, promotion of diuretic action, normalization of pulse, enhancement of heart, increase of collagen synthesis, promotion of leukocyte migration, It has already been medically proven that it has the effect of inhibiting the growth of E. coli, promoting blood circulation of microvessels, promoting protein synthesis ability, doubling treatment rate, promoting fatigue recovery, correcting autonomic nerves, promoting development, have.

In addition, it can be seen that microcurrent stimulation activates tissue healing and restoration processes. Studies using tissue or cultured cells show that ATP re-synthesis, protein synthesis, and DNA replication ratio in cells are increased by direct electrical stimulation I am suggesting.

The effects of these micro current stimuli are pain relief and reduction of edema, and are largely classified into the effect of electric stimulation on muscles, changes in metabolism and changes in blood vessels. In other words, as for the effect of the micro current stimulation on the muscles, the muscles move by electric stimulation through the nerve cells, and when the electric stimulus is given to the muscle surface by the electric therapy apparatus, if a certain amount of electricity enters, And repetitive action of relaxation, exercise effect and cooperative muscles are activated.

As a change of the above metabolism, it has been proved through experiments that the stimulated muscles are less fatigued, such as decreased lactic acid, and can inhibit the oxidase activity due to the change of the enzyme. As the change of blood vessels, As the distribution increases, peripheral blood vessels expand and help to improve blood flow.

Accordingly, various kinds of micro current stimulating apparatuses have recently been introduced which can realize various therapeutic effects and massage effects by stimulating micro currents to the human body.

However, the conventional micro current stimulating apparatus has a problem that it can not control the level of the micro current actually supplied to the human body.

The skin resistance of the human body varies from person to person. Therefore, even if the microcurrent of the same level is supplied to the human body, since the skin resistance is different, the level of the microcurrent actually supplied to the human body varies from person to person. That is, in the case of a human body having a large skin resistance, the level of microcurrent flowing through the human body is lowered, and in the case of a human body having a small skin resistance, the level of microcurrent flowing through the human body is increased. When the level of the microcurrent having the highest therapeutic effect is fixed, if the level of the microcurrent is higher or lower than the level of the microcurrent, the therapeutic effect is deteriorated.

In addition, in the conventional art, the adhesion position of the microcurrent stimulating device to the human body is not constant every time it is used, and thus the therapeutic effect is deteriorated. In the state where the adhesive type silicon electrode is attached to the human body, Since the connection cable is elongated, the behavior of the user becomes inconvenient, and there is a problem that it is difficult to carry out other work in parallel.
