Description

Human body treatment method and human body treatment system

The present invention wears an electric treatment body and performs treatment of the human body, and in particular, while warming the foot in a state equivalent to a state attached to footbath, the treatment with a treatment body that can be attached to the lower knee site The present invention relates to a human body treatment method and a human body treatment system that can be performed.

Conventionally, various devices exist for performing treatment on a human body. For example, in Patent Document 1 below, the human body is treated while sitting in a chair-type massage device having a plurality of vibration generating units, and at the same time the knee lower part is put in a bath of footbath equipped with a foot vibration generating unit, It is disclosed that the foot sole massage (treatment) is performed at the foot sole vibration generator while performing footbath. Further, paragraph 0072 of Patent Document 1 states that a vibration generating unit may be provided to a member that can be attached to a human body such as a band, an abdominal winding, or a belt to perform treatment (massage).

As a type of device that is worn on the human body to perform treatment, in addition to the type that generates the above-mentioned vibration, as shown in Patent Document 2 below, a pad of an electrical muscle stimulation device (EMS device: Electric Muscle Stimulation) Some electrode pads are attached to the human body (see the electrode pad 11 shown in FIG. 16 of Patent Document 2 and the attachment points of the pads shown in FIGS. 17 and 18). In the invention according to Patent Document 2, the whole-body warming process is inserted before the stage of treatment with the EMS device (body-line tightening process shown in FIG. 1 of Patent Document 2), thereby warming the whole body of the user. After that, treatment with EMS equipment is performed.

Further, as devices aiming at the same effect as footbath without using hot water, there are those disclosed in Patent Documents 3 to 5 below. In Patent Document 3, instead of hot water, a plurality of heat storage particles that radiate far-infrared rays by heating are stored in the bathtub body, and the feet inserted in the bathtub body are buried in the heat storage particles to warm the feet. (See FIG. 4 (b) etc. of Patent Document 3). Further, in Patent Document 4, instead of hot water, a heat storage member such as a ceramic ball is housed in the container body, and a foot placed in the container body is inserted between the heat storage members to warm the legs (see Patent Document 4) 2nd grade). Furthermore, while providing a heating element to the side wall and the bottom of a container, patent documents 5 lay a thermal storage mat on the bottom, fill a heat insulation piece (color ball) in a container, and fill a foot in these pieces. warm.

When applying treatments to the human body, it is usually more effective to warm the human body. Therefore, even when the treatment is performed on the foot (for example, the lower knee region), it is desirable to perform the treatment while warming the region to be the object of the treatment. As a method of warming the lower knee region of the foot, it is general to use footbath as shown in the above-mentioned Patent Document 1. However, since footbath uses hot water, a member for treatment that can be worn on the human body (a member provided with a vibration generating unit described in Patent Document 1, electrode pads of EMS equipment disclosed in Patent Document 2, etc.) If it is put, it gets wet in hot water and can not be used properly. Therefore, there is a problem that it is limited to what performs vibration for soles as shown in patent documents 1 as a device of treatment which can be used together with footbath.

On the other hand, devices shown in the above-mentioned Patent Documents 3 to 5 exist as devices aiming for the same effect as footbath without using hot water. However, in the device of Patent Document 3, since it is necessary to bury the foot in the heat storage particles stored in the bath body, it takes time for the foot to be buried and buried in the heat storage particles first. There is such a problem. In addition, attaching the member for treatment to the part of the foot buried in the heat storage particle and using it has a problem that it is not preferable because the member for treatment is directly affected by the heat from the heat storage particle, Moreover, when using the member for treatment installed in the lower knee part which is not embedded in the thermal storage granular material like a calf part, as shown to FIG. 4 (b) of patent document 3, a calf part is a bathtub main body Because it is more out, there is a problem that it is difficult to get the effect of performing the treatment while warming up in the first place.

The above problems with the device of Patent Document 3 apply to the device of Patent Document 4 as well. That is, as shown in FIG. 2 of Patent Document 4, it takes time and effort to put the foot in the ball-like heat storage member, and the treatment member is used while being buried in the heat storage member. Is not preferable, and in the case where the treatment member is attached and used at a place not embedded in the heat storage member, it is difficult to obtain the effect of performing the treatment while warming.

Then, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 of Patent Document 5, the device according to Patent Document 5 stores the color ball in a container whose depth is such that the foot portion below the knee is inside the container. Therefore, there is a problem that it takes time to put the foot so that the sole of the foot gets to the bottom of the container, and the color ball is buried in the color ball because it is stored in the container almost to the lower knee. When the treatment member is attached to the foot and used, the treatment member is directly affected by the heat from the color ball, resulting in an undesirable situation.

Further, as shown in FIGS. 17 and 18 of Patent Document 2, locations where the treatment members are to be attached to the human body are generally known. However, since the size of each part of the skeleton, how to attach muscles, and how to attach fat differ from one another for the human body to be treated, for example, the user's desire to effectively tighten the thickest part by surgery is Even if there is a problem, it is difficult to pinpoint such individual wishes.

The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and placing emphasis on the ability to perform treatment while warming the lower knee region, a box in which the lower knee region on which a treatment member (treatment body) is attached can be inserted A heat source member is disposed at the bottom of the foot-warming device, and the heat source member heats the lower knee region from the sole to prevent the heat of the heat source member from directly affecting the treatment body, and the human body The purpose is to provide a treatment system.

Furthermore, the present invention performs three-dimensional measurement on the human body to be treated to identify the thickest part in the lower knee region and attach the treatment body to the identified part, thereby efficiently treating the thickest part. An object of the present invention is to provide a human body treatment method and a human body treatment system which can be performed.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention is a human body treatment method in which an electric treatment body is attached to a human body to perform treatment of the human body, the treatment in the lower thigh range from knee to ankle of the human body seated on a chair. Placing the body-mounted lower-knee region into the interior of a box-like foot-warming device; and performing the treatment with the treatment body while warming the lower-knee region within the foot-warming device with the foot-warming device. And the foot warming device arranges the heat source member at the bottom of the box-like portion, and the below-knee region put inside the foot warming device places the sole on the heat source member and The area is covered with air inside the foot warmer without touching the heat source member.

Further, the present invention is characterized in that the treatment body is a pad of an electrical muscle stimulation apparatus.
Furthermore, the present invention is characterized in that the heat source member includes a solid that emits radium radioactivity.
Furthermore, the present invention is characterized in that the heat source member includes a solid that emits radium activity, and a rock or a stone disposed on the solid.

In the present invention, the heat source member includes a panel-like electric heater, a plurality of ball-like or stone-like specific bodies emitting radium activity, and a plurality of basalts having a size larger than the specific body, An intrinsic body is disposed on the electric heater, and the plurality of basalts are stacked on the plurality of intrinsic bodies.
Further, according to the present invention, the temperature of the electric heater is set so that the temperatures of the plurality of inherent bodies reach a temperature in the range of 70 to 90 ° C. and the temperatures of the plurality of basalts reach a temperature in the range of 40 to 50 ° C. It is characterized by

The present invention includes the steps of performing three-dimensional measurement on the human body, identifying the location of maximum circumference in the lower thigh range of the human body by the three-dimensional measurement, and performing treatment at the location of maximum perimeter of the lower thigh range specified. And the step of wearing the body.
In addition, the present invention is characterized by comprising the step of performing finger pressure or stretching of the trunk of the human body after the end of the treatment by the treatment body.

The present invention is a human body treatment system in which an electric treatment body is attached to a human body to perform treatment of a human body, comprising a chair for sitting and a foot warming device having a heat source member disposed at a box-like bottom portion; The body is adapted to wear the treatment body at a location in the lower thigh range from the knee to the ankle of the human body, and the chair is a device for warming the foot under the knee with the human body sitting on the chair. And the foot warming device is installed at the side of the foot warming device, and the foot warming device allows the sole of the below-the-knee site placed inside to be placed on the heat source member, and the inside of the foot warming device It is characterized in that the area above the instep knee of the below knee site is covered with the air inside the foot warming device without touching the heat source member.

In the present invention, the heat source member is placed on the inside of the foot warming device in which the heat source member is disposed at the bottom of the box, and the human body sitting on the chair enters the knee lower part where the treatment body is attached at the location within the lower leg range. Since the sole of the foot was placed on top of the foot and the upper part of the foot was covered by the air inside the foot warmer without touching the heat source member, the treatment body attached to the lower knee site was heated by the heat source member. The effect of the treatment can be enhanced by directly treating the treatment body while warming the lower knee area. In addition, the box-like foot warming device is designed to have a sufficient internal depth so that the treatment body attached to the lower thigh area portion also enters the inside of the foot warming device.

In the present invention, since the treatment body attached to the lower thigh area is used as a pad of an electrical muscle stimulation device (EMS device), the contents of the treatment by the treatment body electrically stimulate and move the muscle. It becomes a thing. The treatment with the EMS device is equivalent to that of the human being physically exercised, because even if the person who receives the treatment does not move, the muscles move by the electrical stimulation without permission, and the physical training is performed dynamically. The effect of Further, warming the human body (in the present invention, the lower leg range of the human body) is equivalent to performing aerobic exercise, and a situation in which fat can be easily burned can be obtained. Therefore, if you perform treatment with a pad of an electrical muscle stimulation device while warming with a foot warming device, you can secure the situation of performing strength training while performing aerobic exercise without moving any body, and burn fat However, compared with the invention according to Patent Document 2, it becomes possible to perform the treatment for tightening the body more efficiently in time.

In the present invention, since the heat source member includes a solid body that emits radium radiation, the core body of the heat source member warms up by the inherent body contained in the heat source member, and the sole is placed on the heat source member. Even in the heating system, the whole body can be warmed through the range of the lower leg placed in the foot warming device.

In the present invention, since the heat source member is a rock or a stone placed on an inherent body that emits radium activity, the space between the inherent body that emits radium activity and the sole of the human body is provided. In addition, since rock or stone intervenes, the warmth of the foot due to the proper body can be adjusted by the rock or stone, which is suitable for securing a suitable warm state. As the rock or stone contained in the heat source member, any of rock only, stone only, or a mixture of rock and stone may be used, and the surface of such rock or stone is rough or smooth Any of those can be used. When the surface is rough, it can give moderate stimulation to the sole, while when the surface is smooth, it can give a gentle and gentle feeling to the sole.

In the present invention, a plurality of ball-like or stone-like eigenbodies emitting radium activity are disposed on the electric heater, and a plurality of eigenbodies having a larger size than the eigenbodies are further disposed on the plurality of eigenbodies. Since the basalt is stacked to form the heat source member, first, the temperature adjustment becomes easy by the electric heater, and since the specific body that emits the radium activity is made ball or stone, it is placed on the electric heater. It becomes easy to spread a plurality of inherent bodies, and it is easy to smoothly transfer the heat generated by the electric heater to the plurality of inherent bodies. And since a plurality of basalts are stacked on a plurality of inherent bodies, the basalt is warmed by the inherent bodies and becomes to function as a so-called hot stone. Therefore, the warming effect by the radium radiation emitted from the intrinsic body and the effect of touching the sole of the foot directly as a hot stone to warm the foot are combined so that the foot can be warmed moderately during the treatment with the treatment body Become. In addition, since the basalt is sized larger than the eigenbody, the basalt stacked on the eigenbody can be mixed with the eigenbody to prevent the layered state from being broken.

In the present invention, the temperature of the electric heater is set so that the temperature of the plurality of basalts is in the range of 40 to 50 ° C. at the temperature of 70 to 90 ° C. of the plurality of proper bodies. The temperature can be secured in the range suitable for radiating radium radiation, and the basalt on the top of the foot can ensure the same temperature as a general footbath, providing the best conditions for warming the foot become able to.

In the present invention, before wearing the treatment body, three-dimensional measurement of the human body is performed to identify the thickest portion (the portion having the maximum circumferential length) in the lower leg range, and the operation is performed on the thickest portion thus identified Because the treatment is carried out wearing the body, it becomes possible to pinpoint the treatment focused on the most likely tightening effect. That is, since the thickest part in the lower leg range has a large amount of muscle mass or a large amount of fat, the amount of tightening of the muscle by the treatment with the treatment body is also large, and the amount of fat burning by the foot warming device is also large Therefore, the most efficient operation is possible for the purpose of thinning the foot in the lower thigh area.

In the present invention, when the treatment is completed, the body pressure on the trunk of the human body is massaged or stretched. Therefore, the treatment with the treatment body and the warming of the human body by the foot warming device cause the trunk in a warm state. It becomes possible to perform acupressure or stretching, and its effect can be enhanced compared to normal acupressure or stretch in an unwarmed state.

In the present invention, since the treatment body attached to the lower knee region can be prevented from being directly affected by the heat from the heat source member, the treatment can be performed with the treatment body while warming the lower knee region, and the effect of the treatment by the treatment body Can be improved.
Further, in the present invention, since the treatment body is a pad of an electrical muscle stimulation apparatus (EMS device), the muscle training can be performed while performing aerobic exercise with a foot warming apparatus without moving the body at all. It can be secured, and the treatment that tightens the body while burning fat can be performed efficiently, and for users who do not want to move their body, or users who have difficulty moving their body due to injury or illness, etc. The same situation as exercise and strength training can be provided, and in particular for the latter user it can also be applied to rehabilitation applications.

In the present invention, since the heat source member includes a solid body that emits radium radiation, even if the sole is placed on the heat source member to warm it, the heat source member can be heated from the core of the body. You can warm it up.
Further, in the present invention, since the heat source member is a rock or a stone placed on an intrinsic body that emits radium activity, the warmth of the foot by the intrinsic body that emits radium activity can be It can be adjusted with a proper warmth.

In the present invention, the foot can be warmed directly by the basalt which functions as a hot stone in addition to the warming by the radium radiation emitted from the inherent body, and such a modest warming state is a panel-like electric heater It can be maintained by setting, and further, since the basalt is made larger than the eigenbody, it is possible to keep the multiple basalts stacked on the multiple eigenbodies.

In the present invention, the human body is measured by a three-dimensional measuring device to identify the thickest part in the lower thigh range, and the treatment body is attached to the thickest part that is identified to perform the treatment. We can perform treatment that we narrowed down to easy point.
Further, in the present invention, since the finger pressure or massage of the trunk of the human body is performed after the treatment while warming up, it is possible to warm the trunk in a warmed state by the treatment by the treatment body and the warming by the foot warming device. It becomes possible to perform shiatsu or massage, and its effect can be enhanced as compared to normal shiatsu or massage.

FIG. 1 is a flowchart showing an outline of a series of processing procedures of the human body treatment method according to the present embodiment. The human body treatment method of the present invention is a treatment method in which the same effect as performing muscle training while performing aerobic exercise can be obtained by sitting alone without performing dynamic training in particular. The center of the treatment is the treatment content (treatment content) of “EMS treatment while warming the foot” at the stage of S5 in the flowchart shown in FIG. 1, and while warming the foot with the foot warming device, EMS treatment (Electric Muscle Stimulation treatment) will be performed by an electrical muscle stimulation device (EMS device: Electric Muscle Stimulation).

The above-mentioned steps S1 to S4 before step S5 are the processing contents of the preparation step, and the step S6 after step S5 is the processing contents of cool down (sorting exercises). In this embodiment, in order to maximize the tightening result by the same effect as the strength training by the EMS treatment in the stage of S5, the place to be attached to the human body of the pad (electrical treatment body) of the EMS device is , By three-dimensional measurement.

That is, three-dimensional measurement is performed on the user (human body) to receive the treatment (S1), and a portion of the maximum circumference is specified in the lower knee region (lower leg range) (S2). Then, the pad is attached so that the center of the pad of the EMS device coincides with the specified location (S3), and the below-knee region to which the pad is attached is put in a box-like foot warming device which has been made appropriate temperature beforehand (S4). In addition, although the attachment of the pad of the stage of S3 may be performed in any of the sitting state or the standing state, the foot putting to the foot warming device of the stage of S4 is performed in the sitting state.

Then, in step S5, the EMS device is operated to perform EMS treatment while the human body (under the knee) is warmed by the foot warming device. As described above, according to the present invention, since the EMS treatment is performed while warming up, the total treatment time can be shortened compared to the case where the EMS treatment is performed after warming up first. Although EMS treatment at the stage of S5 is performed in a time range of about 15 to 45 minutes, usually about 20 to 30 minutes is preferable. In addition, since EMS treatment at the stage of S5 is also performed in a sitting state, the exclusive area can be reduced as compared with the EMS treatment which is often performed in a general sleeping state.

The cooldown stage S6 will be performed after the above-mentioned S5 stage, and the treatment content of the above-mentioned S5 stage improves systemic circulation, and the trunk part which is not directly warmed up Because the body temperature is higher than the condition before the operation, it is necessary to perform acupressure or stretching on the trunk part in a warm state, and the effect of body loosening or stretching is acupressure or stretch without being warm. Because you can improve compared to when you do, you can do efficient finger pressure or stretch.

The human body model providing device 40 of this embodiment is constructed by a general server computer (server device), but a system is realized by combining a plurality of server devices, a database device, and the like by performing distributed processing and the like. Of course, construction is also possible. The human body model providing apparatus 40 is configured by connecting various devices and the like via an internal connection line 40h to an MPU 40a that performs overall control and various processes, and the communication module 40b, RAM 40c, ROM 40d, and the like for various devices and the like.

The contents of the member database 41 are appropriately updated according to the increase and decrease of registered users.

FIG. 7 shows a part of the contents of the human body model table 45, and FIG. 7 shows the range of the human body model for males, although the female human body model is not shown but is included. In providing the human body model according to the measurement result of the human body of the user (subject H), the human body model provision device 40 prepares a human body model as a base instead of generating a human body model from scratch, and By appropriately deforming the prepared human body model according to the measurement result of the subject H, a human body model according to the physical size and physical size of the subject is provided. The human body model table 45 stores data of human body models to be prepared in advance for each gender, and specifies the gender of the user (subject) who is logging in from the member data table 60, and the MPU 40a determines which male or female model data to use to decide. The human body model of the present embodiment includes an skeletal model, a muscle model, and a fat model to enable anatomical display.

The human body model table 45 includes three models of a skeletal model 46, a muscle model 47, and a fat model 48 that constitute a human body model, and statistically the ratio of the length dimension of the four limbs to the height (height) The standard pattern 45a, in which the ratio of the sleeve length and the ratio of the crotch) is standard, the first pattern 45b in which the dimensions of limbs (the dimensions of limbs) are shortened by about 95% with respect to the standard pattern 45a (The size of the hand and foot) of the second pattern 45c which is about 105% longer.

The skeleton model 46 is a model showing a skeleton, and a standard skeleton model 46a corresponding to the standard pattern 45a, a first skeleton model 46b corresponding to the first pattern 45b, and a second skeleton corresponding to the second pattern 45c. Model 46c is included. The muscle model 47 also includes a standard muscle model 47a corresponding to the standard pattern 45a, a first muscle model 47b corresponding to the first pattern 45b, and a second muscle model 47c corresponding to the second pattern 45c, The fat model 48 also includes a standard fat model 48a corresponding to the standard pattern 45a, a first fat model 48b corresponding to the first pattern 45b, and a second fat model 48c corresponding to the second pattern 45c.

Each of the skeletal model 46, the muscle model 47, and the fat model 48 is one set combined for each pattern as a human body model. That is, as the standard pattern 45a, the standard skeletal model 46a, the muscle model 47a, and the fat model 48a form one set, and similarly, as the first pattern 45b, the first skeletal model 46b, the muscle model 47b And the fat model 48b is one set, and as the second pattern 45c, the second skeletal model 46c, the muscle model 47c, and the fat model 48c are one set.

Each skeletal model 46, muscle model 47, and fat model 48 are formed so as to enable three-dimensional display, and each model is rotated from a desired angle by performing an operation (for example, swipe operation) to rotate each model. And the enlargement or reduction of the required part of each model is also possible by the required operation (for example, a pinch device). Furthermore, each skeletal model 46, muscle model 47, and fat model 48 are formed of shapes that can be deformed in shape, and accordingly, based on the measurement results described above, according to the measurement results of the subject H, deformation, etc. is performed as appropriate. By doing this, it is possible to provide the communication terminal 7 and the like with a skeletal model, a muscle model, a fat model and the like according to the human body of the subject. Each skeletal model 71, muscle model 72, and fat model 73 have numerical values corresponding to their physical constitutions, and these numerical values are used at the time of deformation processing.

Further, the model numerical value table T12 stored in the storage unit 40g is a human body model (a skeletal model corresponding to the standard pattern 45a, the first pattern 45b, and the second pattern 45c stored in the human body model table 45 shown in FIG. , The muscle model, and the fat model) store numerical values according to each part. Each numerical value stored in the model numerical value table T12 is an average value for each pattern based on numerically obtained numerical values, and is obtained from an average height value, a crotch value, an arm length value, etc. The percentage of inseam (percentage of the average length of the foot to the height) and the ratio of sleeve length (percentage of the average length of the arm to the stature) are stored. These values correspond to the model according to the subject H. It is used, for example, to specify a pattern from among the patterns 45a to 45c, and to specify the degree of enlargement or reduction of the specified pattern model.

The server program P1 in the program P1 stored in the storage unit 40g defines various processes according to the operating system for the server computer, and the MPU 40a performs the process based on the defined contents, whereby the human body The model providing device 40 performs each function as a server computer (server device).

In addition, the model deformation program P11 is a process related to member authentication, a process of storing (storing) measurement results, a process of generating a human body model such as a skeletal model according to the measurement results, a process of generating a captured image model, each part The MPU 40a defines that the process of specifying the location of the maximum circumferential length of the and the process of storing and distributing the generated models and the like is performed.

When the human body model providing device 40 (MPU 40a) receives inquiry information related to member authentication including the user ID and password from the measurement processing device 30 as processing related to member authentication of the model deformation program P11, the user included in the received inquiry information It is determined whether the ID and password are included in the member database 41. When the user ID and the password are included in the member database 41, the MPU 40a performs a process of returning a response to the effect of registration to the measurement processing apparatus 30, and when it is not included, the non-registration (non-member A process of returning a response to the effect is sent to the measurement processing device 30.

As processing of storing (storing) the measurement result of the model transformation program P11, when the measurement result (information related to the measurement result) including the user ID sent from the measurement processing device 30 is received, In the field, the measurement result is stored together with the reception date (or measurement date) in association with the user ID included in the reception.

As processing for generating a human body model according to the measurement result of the model deformation program P11, first, based on the received measurement result, the standard pattern 45a of the human body model table 45 of FIG. 7, the first pattern 45b with short limbs, the limbs The MPU 40a performs processing to specify which pattern to use from the longer second patterns 45c. Then, the human body model (one set of skeletal model, muscle model and fat model) according to the specified pattern is similar according to the size of the measured height of the subject H (the measurement result according to the physical constitution) The MPU 40a performs a process of enlarging or reducing the size. In addition, after being scaled up or down in a similar manner, the details will be deformed in accordance with the measurement results. In the modification of details, the thickness, length, etc. of each part such as the upper arm, forearm, trunk, hip, thigh, lower leg etc. will be adjusted according to the judged level (-4 to +4) etc. .

As a process of generating a captured image model, the measurement result sent from the measurement processing device 30 can be obtained by imaging by the scanning condition acquisition units 21b, 22b, and 23b of the three-dimensional measuring device 20 during three-dimensional measurement. Three-dimensional captured images of the user (subject H) (captured image of the human body viewed from the front, captured image of the human body viewed from the lateral direction, captured image of the human body viewed from above, and the human body viewed from below The captured image, the captured image of the human body viewed from the rear direction, etc.) is included, and based on the captured image, the human body model providing apparatus 40 (MPU 40a) generates a three-dimensional captured image model of the user (subject H). Generate Since the captured image model generated in this manner is obtained based on three-dimensional measurement, it has the same three-dimensional coordinate system (same X, Y, and Z coordinate values) as in three-dimensional measurement.

The human body model providing apparatus 40 (MPU 40a) includes the upper arm of the left and right arms, the forearm, the abdomen, the thighs of the left and right legs, and the lower thighs as processing for specifying the location of the maximum circumference of each part. In the site, identify the site with the maximum perimeter. In the measurement by the three-dimensional measuring device 20, the three-dimensional coordinate values of a plurality of points (about 30,000 points) on the human body surface are obtained, and the above-mentioned parts (upper arm, forearm, abdomen, etc.) are obtained from these three-dimensional coordinate values. The maximum circumferential length in the thigh and the lower thigh is calculated by the measurement processing device 30, and therefore, the obtained maximum circumferential length of each portion is determined by the three-dimensional surface of the human body according to the portion. Coordinate values are associated. Therefore, the human body model providing apparatus 40 (MPU 40a) specifies the position of the maximum circumference from the three-dimensional coordinate values associated with the maximum circumference of each part included in the measurement result sent from the measurement processing apparatus 30. Do.

In the present invention, since the position of the maximum peripheral length is specified in order to determine the mounting point of the pad, the muscle or fat to which the pad is mounted is present near the skin surface in the human body location to be specified. I try to identify the site. For example, when specifying the position of the maximum perimeter in the lower leg range, it is not the side where the bone is felt from the skin but the side where the muscle or fat exists between the skin and the bone (back side) In the "calf" region where the above, the position of the maximum perimeter where the thickness of the muscle or fat becomes maximum is pinpointedly specified.

In addition, in order to make the position of the specified maximum perimeter also known to the actual human body of the user, the human body model providing apparatus 40 (MPU 40a) also measures the distance from the end of the human body to the position of the specified maximum perimeter. I am asking for it. The positions of the maximum peripheral length in the left and right upper arms and forearms are, as the end of the human body, the distance from the fingertips of the left and right arms (the fingertips of the index finger) to the three-dimensional coordinate values of the human body model providing device 40 (MPU 40a). Determine based on. In addition, the position of the maximum perimeter in the abdomen, the left and right thighs, and the lower thighs is the end of the human body, the distance from the fingertips of the left and right feet (the same height as the heel of the sole) The model providing device 40 (MPU 40a) obtains it based on each three-dimensional coordinate value.

Then, the human body model providing apparatus 40 (MPU 40a) performs a drawing process so that the specified maximum perimeter length and the distance to the determined maximum perimeter length can be reflected in the generated captured image model. Since the generated captured image model has the same coordinate system as in three-dimensional measurement, the coordinate value of the position of the specified maximum perimeter can be used as it is in the captured image model as well. The device 40 (MPU 40a) generates drawing data in which a colored mark such as red is added to the coordinate value of the position of the maximum perimeter in the captured image model, and the end of the human body (arm A numerical value indicating the value of the distance from the fingertip or the fingertip of the foot to the mark and an auxiliary line are also drawn.

The processing of storing and distributing each model and the like of the model deformation program P11 includes the skeletal model, the fat model, the muscle model, the captured image model, and the drawing data indicating the location of the maximum perimeter, etc. The human body model providing apparatus 40 (MPU 40a) performs processing of storing the measurement data column of the member database 41 (see FIG. 6) together with the measurement date in association with the user ID of the target user. Then, when a request for each model or the like is received from the logged-in user, the human body model providing apparatus 40 (MPU 40a) receives measurement data (including each model data or the like) associated with the user ID of the logged-in user. It reads from the member database 41 and transmits it to the device (the communication terminal 7, the measurement processing device 30, etc.) of the request source.

The processing of the human body model provision device 40 (MPU 40a) based on the model deformation program P11 described above is performed each time the user receives a three-dimensional measurement. In order to identify the pad mounting point at step S3 in the flow chart of FIG. 1, once the three-dimensional measurement is performed and the point of the maximum peripheral length can be identified, three-dimensional measurement is performed in each subsequent operation. Since the pad may be attached to a place which has already been identified without performing step S1, the processing of S1 and S2 in the flowchart of FIG. 1 can be omitted for the second time and thereafter. However, when the user desires to confirm the tightness of the body by the human body surgery method of the present invention at fat level and muscle level, as described above, the three-dimensional measurement of this embodiment conforms to the measurement. Since a fat model and a muscle model can be generated and provided to the user, for such a user, it is preferable to perform three-dimensional measurement according to when it is desired to confirm the tightening situation.

Such a captured image model G is sent from the human body model providing system 4 by the user logging in to the human body model providing apparatus 40 using the communication terminal 7 and requesting the measurement result etc. of the user himself. By receiving the measurement result and the like by the communication terminal 7, it is displayed on the display screen 7a.

In the communication terminal 7, a human body model (skeleton model, fat model, muscle model), a captured image model G, and various measurement results based on data of each model included in the measurement result etc. sent from the human body model provision device 40. An application program (application) for displaying numerical values and the like is previously installed.

The same comfortable condition as the used footbath is obtained. In addition, the basalt 56 of the present embodiment uses a ground surface whose polished dimension d2 is larger than 6 cm, thereby securing the dimensions larger than the intrinsic body 55, and the basalt 56 mixes with the intrinsic body 55. The stacked state shown in FIG. 13 is maintained so as not to fit.

In the flow chart shown in FIG. 1, at the stage of S4, the lower knee site with the pad attached to the lower thigh area is put into the inside of the container 51 of the foot warming device 50, and at the stage of S5, the foot warming device 50 warms the below knee knee and EMS The treatment will be performed (about 20-30 minutes). At the stage of EMS treatment, as shown in FIG. 13, the knee lower part put in the inside of the foot warming device 50 is above the instep of the foot while placing the sole on the basalt 56 which constitutes the heat source member 53. The range is covered with the air K inside the container 51 of the foot warming device 50 without touching the heat source member 53. In order to enhance heat retention, as shown in FIG. 13, it is preferable to apply a cover cloth 59 (such as a blanket for hanging on a knee or a hanging cloth) that covers the thighs of the human body and the top of the foot warming device 50. (A cover cloth 59 is used to prevent a gap between the notch of the lid 51 f and the thigh or the like).

As shown in FIG. 13, the pad 3 a used for the EMS treatment does not touch the heat source member 53 even if it enters the inside of the foot warming device 50, so direct heat influence due to the contact with the heat source member 53 is It can be done without EMS, and can operate EMS without any trouble. In addition, the foot placed in the foot warmer 50 (under the knee) warms up with warm solid from the core of the body by the solid body 55 that emits radium radiation, and the foot sole touches the basalt 56 that functions as a hot stone. The heat is transmitted to the human body through the soles, and even with the foot warming device 50 having the heat source member 53 disposed only under the soles by such two types of heat transfer systems, It can warm up.

And by performing EMS treatment while warming the foot as described above, even if the user itself is not moving at all, warming up by the foot warming device 50 makes the human body the same situation as when performing aerobic exercise Also, you can get the status of doing strength training by EMS treatment with the pad. Moreover, since the pad is mounted at the location of the maximum circumferential length at the pin point, the location of the maximum circumferential length can be efficiently tightened, and the present invention has an excellent tightening effect as compared with the conventional one. Demonstrate.

FIG. 15 shows a trunk treatment apparatus 60 used in the stage of acupressure or stretch in S6 of the flowchart of FIG. The trunk treatment apparatus 60 of the present embodiment is a bed-type apparatus, and the treatment roller portion 62 is movably provided on the bottom 61 a of the bed frame 61. The treatment roller portion 62 is movable along the longitudinal direction of the bed (left and right direction in FIG. 15), and can also rise and move in the height direction of the bed (vertical direction in FIG. 15) within a predetermined range. . The rollers of the treatment roller portion 62 are warm during operation, and finger pressure is applied by the warm rollers.

Then, the treatment roller unit 62 moves along the longitudinal direction of the bed to apply pressure to the back of the user (human body) in a state of lying on the bed frame 61, and the longitudinal movement range of the bed is the neck of the human body. Since the range is from the lower to the buttocks of the trunk, the torso treatment apparatus 60 presses the trunk from behind. Furthermore, when the treatment roller portion 62 moves upward in the height direction of the bed, the human body portion at that position is pushed up to obtain a towed state (stretched state). The treatment of the treatment roller unit 62 of the trunk treatment apparatus 60 is performed at the step S6 after the step S5 (the EMS treatment while warming) as shown in the flowchart of FIG. In such a state, by performing acupressure or stretching with the trunk treatment apparatus 60, better treatment can be performed compared to the case where it is performed in the normal state without warming. .

Although the human body treatment method and the human body treatment system 1 according to the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modified examples can be assumed. For example, in the above description, the attachment of the pads 3a and the like has been described in the case of the lower thigh region inserted into the inside of the foot warming device 50, but the pad is attached to another part of the human body which can not be inserted inside the foot warming device 50 Of course, at the stage of S5 in the flowchart of FIG. 1, it is also possible to simultaneously perform the EMS treatment for other sites not inserted into the inside of the foot warming device 50. In the place which is not put in the inside of the foot warming device 50, although the same warming effect as the heat source member 53 mentioned above can not be expected, it is chained compared with the usual case human body parts other than the foot by warming the foot. Since the temperature rises, the EMS treatment at a place not inserted into the inside of the foot warming device 50 is an environment where a good treatment can be performed as compared with the case where the EMS treatment is performed without warming anything. In addition, even in the place which has not been put in the inside of such a foot warming device 50, the place where the pad for EMS treatment is attached is the maximum circumference length in the above-mentioned three-dimensional measurement in the upper arm, the forearm, the abdomen and the thigh. Targeting the position of, to be able to expect a good tightening effect.

Further, in the case of simplifying the specification of the present invention, it is possible to omit the three-dimensional measurement at the stage of S1 in the flowchart of FIG. 1 and the acupressure or stretch at the stage of S6. The three-dimensional human body measurement system 5 and the trunk treatment apparatus 60 are omitted from the human body treatment system 1. When the three-dimensional human body measurement system 5 is omitted, the staff measures the lower leg range of the user who receives the treatment at a plurality of locations using a measuring tape or the like (measurement centered on calf), and the longest measured location. Will be attached to the pad (corresponding to the process of step S2 in FIG. 1). In addition, the place which mounts a pad is not limited to the place according to the position of the maximum circumference, and it mounts in any place (for example, a place etc. which a user desires) in a leg range, and carries out EMS treatment It is of course also possible to Also, the acupressure or stretching at the stage of S6 may be performed by the staff using human power to perform acupressure or stretching for the user who is to receive the operation, instead of using the trunk treatment apparatus 60 shown in FIG.

Furthermore, the internal structure of the foot warming device 50 is not limited to that shown in FIG. 13, and various specifications can be considered. For example, the intrinsic body 55 which emits radium radiation may be formed into a panel instead of being formed into a ball or a stone. As described above, when the panel-like inherent body is mounted on the electric heater 54, the contact area with the electric heater 54 is increased compared to the ball-like or stone-like one, and thus the inherent body is easily warmed. Along with that, there is an advantage that the radium radiation can be radiated smoothly, and there is an advantage that the state of the basalt 56 stacked in the upper layer is also stabilized.

Further, in the above description, by appropriately setting the controller 58 of the heating panel 54, the temperature of each unique body 55 becomes 70 to 90 ° C., and the temperature of each basalt 56 is 40 to 50 ° C. In this case, the temperature setting may be automatically secured. In this case, the first temperature sensor is provided at the location where the basalt 56 is located, and the second temperature sensor is provided at the location where the unique body 55 is located, and the detection results of these temperature sensors are input to the controller. A control unit for automatically controlling the temperature is provided to control the heating panel 54 to heat when the temperature detected by each temperature sensor is lower than the temperature in the reference range, and the temperature detected by each temperature sensor is the temperature in the reference range If it goes up, it will control so that the heat generation degree of the heating panel 54 will be reduced. As for the temperature in the above reference range, a range of 40 to 50 ° C. is used for the first temperature sensor as in the case of the basalt 56 described above, and for the second temperature sensor, the temperature of the above-mentioned unique body 55 is As in the case, a range of 70 to 90 ° C. will be used.

In addition, although the basalt 56 is stacked in a single step in the state shown in FIG. 13, the emphasis is placed on the occurrence of radon to set the temperature of each inherent body 55 higher, and accordingly the temperature of the basalt 56 becomes too high. , And may be stacked on the unique body 55 in two or more stages. Moreover, what is accumulated on the intrinsic body 55 is not limited to basalt, and it is of course possible to use other types of rock or stone, for example, Nachi-ishi etc. can be used. As the rock or stone to be stacked on such an intrinsic body 55, the user who receives the treatment using a rough surface, an uneven surface, etc. in addition to a smooth surface is used for EMS treatment Moderate stimulation may be given to the soles.

In addition, the EMS apparatus used for EMS treatment is not limited to the configuration shown in FIG. 10, and it is possible to use, for example, a battery-driven type in which an EMS control unit and a pad are integrated. is there. Further, the treatment at the stage of S5 in FIG. 1 is not limited to the treatment of EMS, and it is also possible to apply the treatment by vibration using an electrically driven vibration pad (corresponding to a treatment body). Such a vibration pad uses a vibration pad having a vibration generating portion shown in Patent Document 1 described above, and such a vibration pad is wound and attached to a specified location by a belt or the like.

Furthermore, in the embodiment described above, the treatment (EMS treatment) is performed while warming the foot by the foot warming device 50, but the treatment is performed while warming the hand at the same time using the warming device similar to the foot warming device 50 You may In this case, a desk is installed beside the chair 4 shown in FIG. 11, a foot warming device 50 shown in FIG. 11 is placed under the desk, and a warming device for warming hands is placed on the desk Deploy. The warming device for warming the hand is basically the same as the warming device 50, but the hand is put into the device not from the top of the device but from the side of the device. With the top closed, one of the four side walls around the device is configured with an open-close lid with a cutout, similar to the top surface of the foot warmer 50 shown in FIGS. Therefore, a hand is put into the inside of the apparatus from the direction of the lid.

When the hands and feet are simultaneously warmed in this manner, the human body is warmed from the ends of both the legs toward the center, thereby further improving the degree of warming of the entire human body. And if you want to warm the hand, put the hand side of the elbow into the inside of the warming device, attach the pad for EMS treatment to the place of maximum circumference length of the upper arm, and perform EMS treatment for the upper arm as well. The same EMS treatment can be performed for the upper arm as well as for the foot described above. If it is only necessary to warm the hands, only the warming device for warming the hands may be used, and the foot warming device may be omitted.

According to the present invention, even if the user does not move at all, the same situation as when performing muscular training by EMS treatment can be secured while securing the same situation as when performing aerobic exercise by the foot warming device. It can be suitably used for users who do not want to exercise themselves, or users who can not easily exercise themselves due to injury or illness.
