The present invention is related to the technical field of mechanics, electronics and physical therapy, since it provides a programmable device for the application of physiotherapy for feet.
ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓN BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
El pie sirve de plano de sustentación y palanca de locomoción del cuerpo humano, y para ello es capaz de adaptarse a cualquier situación irregular del suelo, gracias a la flexibilidad de la bóveda plantar, pero precisamente esa flexibilidad de adaptación le hace sensible a cambios permanentes, que pueden desembocar en inestabilidad del sustentáculo, e incluso puede afectar a la estática corporal, con lo cual también cambia la dinámica. The foot serves as a support plane and locomotion lever for the human body, and for this it is capable of adapting to any irregular situation on the ground, thanks to the flexibility of the plantar vault, but precisely this flexibility of adaptation makes it sensitive to permanent changes. , which can lead to instability of the sustentacle, and can even affect body statics, which also changes the dynamics.
Para mantener la actitud de bipedestación el individuo debe estar en equilibrio, y para esto hace falta que la vertical que pasa por el centro de gravedad, caiga dentro de la base de sustentación. El pie es una pieza elemental de la estática, al ser el elemento de apoyo. Así, todas sus variaciones influyen en la estática (cuello y cabeza, tórax, pelvis, muslo y pierna). To maintain the standing attitude, the individual must be in balance, and for this it is necessary that the vertical that passes through the center of gravity falls within the base of support. The foot is an elementary piece of statics, as it is the support element. Thus, all its variations influence the statics (neck and head, chest, pelvis, thigh and leg).
Al finalizar una jornada diaria, los pies podrían encontrase muy cansados y es habitual que puedan presentarse dolencias o una sensación de pesadez. En muchas ocasiones, estas dolencias podrían llegar a ser ocasionadas por aquellos sobre
esfuerzos que se realizan durante todo el día de manera inconsciente, así como por la utilización de calzados que no sean los más adecuados. At the end of a daily day, the feet could be very tired and it is common for ailments or a feeling of heaviness to occur. On many occasions, these ailments could be caused by those on efforts that are made throughout the day unconsciously, as well as by the use of footwear that is not the most appropriate.
Otro de los motivos principales por los cuales se presentan dolencias o molestias en los pies, seria por una circulación deficiente en ellos, por tal motivo, y para un descanso correcto y efectivo, podrían relajarse con la ayuda de los masajeadores de pies. Estos dispositivos se encuentran disponibles en múltiples tratamientos y sistemas de relajación, pero todos cuentan con una tendencia en común, la relajación de los pies y, por ende, un descanso mejorado. Another of the main reasons why foot ailments or discomfort occur would be due to poor circulation in them, for this reason, and for a correct and effective rest, they could relax with the help of foot massagers. These devices are available in multiple treatments and relaxation systems, but they all have a common tendency, the relaxation of the feet and, therefore, an improved rest.
Los dispositivos masajeadores de pies cuentan con la capacidad de brindar una relajación total, además de ayudar a optimizar el sistema circulatorio, aligerar la pesadez e inclusive, embellecer la apariencia de los pies. Foot massager devices have the ability to provide total relaxation, in addition to helping to optimize the circulatory system, lighten heaviness and even beautify the appearance of the feet.
Cada vez existen más modelos en el mercado, y aunque la polivalencia sea una de sus características principales, también es verdad que cada dispositivo masajeador se especializa en el cuidado o en el objetivo específico de cada problema. There are more and more models on the market, and although versatility is one of its main characteristics, it is also true that each massage device specializes in the care or specific objective of each problem.
Estos dispositivos para el cuidado personal son capaces de proporcionar masajes en los pies, que proporcionan muchos beneficios y serán una solución para relajar y para tratar el dolor, las molestias y los trastornos que afectan a personas de todas las edades y sexos, el tipo y la variedad de masajes de pies dependen principalmente de la estructura del masajeador, los cuales se enlistan a continuación: These personal care devices are capable of providing foot massage, which provides many benefits and will be a solution to relax and treat pain, aches and disorders that affect people of all ages and sexes, type and The variety of foot massages depend mainly on the structure of the massager, which are listed below:
Los hidromasajes utilizan chorros de agua que impulsan el agua por encima y alrededor del pie, proporcionando un efecto
de masaje que ayuda a que los músculos se relajen. También se llaman bañera para pies, spa para pies o hidromasaje. Whirlpools use jets of water that propel water over and around the foot, providing a massage that helps the muscles relax. Also called a foot tub, foot spa, or whirlpool.
El shiatsu o amasado, es uno de los más conocidos y eficaces masajes, se caracteriza por una serie de presiones y tracciones mantenidas durante unos segundos en una zona precisa de la planta del pie. Por lo general, este tratamiento se lleva a cabo gracias a las bolas que se mueven en un movimiento circular. Cuantas más bolas haya en el aparato, más intenso y preciso será el masaje. Shiatsu or kneading, is one of the best known and most effective massages, it is characterized by a series of pressures and tractions maintained for a few seconds in a precise area of the sole of the foot. Usually, this treatment is carried out thanks to the balls that move in a circular motion. The more balls in the device, the more intense and precise the massage will be.
El masajeador de rodillo tiene unos elementos que se mueven hacia adelante y hacia atrás a lo largo de la planta del pie, liberando el dolor y la tensión acumulada en los talones de los pies. The roller massager has elements that move back and forth along the sole of the foot, releasing pain and tension accumulated in the heels of the feet.
Los de vibración consisten en una oscilación de unas bolas que ayuda a reactivar la circulación, relajar y disolver los músculos. The vibration ones consist of an oscillation of some balls that help to reactivate the circulation, relax and dissolve the muscles.
La presoterapia está disponible para masajeadores de pies con protección. Unas almohadillas dentro de las dos cavidades se inflan y desinflan a intervalos regulares para intensificar el masaje y estimular la circulación sanguínea más eficazmente con calor. Pressotherapy is available for foot massagers with protection. Pads inside the two cavities inflate and deflate at regular intervals to intensify the massage and stimulate blood circulation more effectively with heat.
La acupuntura de pies es la más sofisticada y económica, que ofrecen tratamientos que siguen los principios de la acupuntura, aplicando más presión en puntos específicos de la planta del pie. Foot acupuncture is the most sophisticated and economical, offering treatments that follow the principles of acupuncture, applying more pressure to specific points on the sole of the foot.
Los masajeadores eléctricos pueden aliviar el estrés y la ansiedad, bajar la presión, relajar las contracciones musculares y nerviosas de pies, estimular la circulación
sanguínea y ayudar a drenar el exceso de líquido. Por todas estas razones, el masaje de pies está particularmente recomendado para aquellos que sufren de hipertensión, hinchazón de las extremidades inferiores o, más en general, problemas con la circulación y la retención de agua. Las mujeres embarazadas o las personas que trabajan muchas horas de pie o sentadas en su escritorio pueden beneficiarse especialmente de este tratamiento. Electric massagers can relieve stress and anxiety, lower blood pressure, relax muscle and nerve contractions in the feet, stimulate circulation blood and help drain excess fluid. For all these reasons, foot massage is particularly recommended for those who suffer from hypertension, swelling of the lower extremities or, more generally, problems with circulation and water retention. Pregnant women or people who work long hours standing or sitting at their desk can especially benefit from this treatment.
Según la reflexología, práctica de la medicina alternativa y tradicional china, la planta del pie refleja todas las partes del cuerpo, como si fuera un mapa. Más específicamente, cada punto del pie está conectado por un extremo nervioso a una parte de la columna vertebral, que está conectada a un órgano. According to reflexology, a practice of alternative and traditional Chinese medicine, the sole of the foot reflects all the parts of the body, as if it were a map. More specifically, each point on the foot is connected by a nerve ending to a part of the spinal column, which is connected to an organ.
Presionando y estimulando ciertas zonas de la planta del pie, se podrá influir en el funcionamiento de los órganos correspondientes y resolver o simplemente aliviar problemas de salud que parezcan estar completamente desconectados de las extremidades inferiores. By pressing and stimulating certain areas of the sole of the foot, it will be possible to influence the functioning of the corresponding organs and solve or simply alleviate health problems that seem to be completely disconnected from the lower extremities.
La plataforma para los pies es un tipo de masajeador, sin duda el más sencillo; la estructura consiste en una plataforma bastante delgada, similar a la de una báscula personal, sobre la que simplemente hay que descansar los pies; los cabezales de masaje están situados en las dos zonas de los pies, simulando un masaje shiatsu con movimientos circulares; cuantas más cabezas haya en la plataforma, más efectivo será el masaje. The platform for the feet is a type of massager, without a doubt the simplest; the structure consists of a fairly thin platform, similar to that of a personal scale, on which you simply have to rest your feet; the massage heads are located in the two areas of the feet, simulating a shiatsu massage with circular movements; the more heads on the platform, the more effective the massage will be.
Los masajeadores con tapa son más sofisticados y por lo tanto son mucho más caros. La estructura es una esfera con dos cavidades para insertar los pies; en el interior de los dos orificios recubiertos de tela hay cojines que se inflan
y desinflan, haciendo que el tratamiento de masaje sea más o menos intenso. En la base de los orificios, justo debajo de las plantas de los pies, se encuentran rodillos que se mueven hacia adelante y hacia atrás y cabezas giratorias. Esta estructura, por lo tanto, permite disfrutar de varios tipos de masaje al mismo tiempo, ofreciendo un efecto envolvente. Capped massagers are more sophisticated and therefore much more expensive. The structure is a sphere with two cavities to insert the feet; inside the two fabric-covered holes are cushions that inflate and deflate, making the massage treatment more or less intense. At the base of the holes, just below the soles of the feet, are rollers that move back and forth and swivel heads. This structure, therefore, allows you to enjoy various types of massage at the same time, offering an enveloping effect.
