Description

Thermotherapy treatment apparatus

The present invention relates to a heat treatment device for heat treatment using light generated from heat treatment ceramics, and more particularly, to a heat treatment device capable of intensive heat treatment of an adaptation point by moving the heat treatment ceramics to a spine associated with a patient's disease. will be.

In general, the heat treatment device uses the light, heat, and ceramics generated from each bulb when helium bulbs, infrared bulbs, and incandescent bulbs are used to prevent various diseases and to obtain one-ceramic effects such as acupressure, thermal spasms, chiropractic, and cell regeneration. You can do physical therapy.

Here, when helium bulb is used, the laser wavelength of 632.8mm is generated from the helium bulb, so when this wavelength penetrates to 50mm deep of the human body, the leukocytes of capillaries exert more than twice the exercise effect, and are not released by exercise or massage. Fine muscles attached to the bones are not moved by the wavelength to maximize the effect of acupressure and massage.

In addition, when using an infrared bulb, the infrared ray having a wavelength of 5.6 to 100 microns can not only obtain a proper effect of removing waste materials such as heavy metals accumulated in the human body, but also can treat an adult disease such as chiropractic treatment.

On the other hand, the spine consists of 33 bones (7 cervical vertebrae, 12 thoracic vertebrae, 5 lumbar vertebrae, 5 sacral vertebrae and 4 lumbar vertebrae) to protect the spinal cord, the central nerve that descends from the brain. The central nerve, which starts in the brain, connects to the body, organs, skin, and everything else through the spine.

The spinal cord between these spinal nodes is associated with many diseases, and it is known in Korean medicine that the chiropractic or moxibustion of the spine associated with the disease is effective in treating the disease.

Therefore, oriental medicine has been treating the disease by performing a spine or acupressure or other moxibustion procedures corresponding to the patient's disease.

Therefore, in the past, the method of applying heat treatment has been developed by applying the above-mentioned points, using helium or infrared light bulbs, etc. to perform physical therapy at home with unique light wavelength and heat generated from the bulb, so that acupressure, heat moxibustion and spine correction Physiotherapeutic treatments, including cell and cell regeneration, as well as prevent and treat adult diseases.

However, since the general heat therapy device has to be used while moving the location of the heat therapy device, it is difficult to find an accurate treatment site and a person who is uncomfortable with a motion needs a person who needs to move the heat therapy device from the side.

In order to alleviate the above-mentioned drawbacks, as shown in FIG. 5, a chain 103 driven by a motor 102 is installed inside the mat 101, and the thermal therapy conductor 104 is installed on the chain 103. Is installed, as the motor 102 is driven, the chain 103 is rotated while the thermal therapy ceramics 104 are transported in the longitudinal direction to stimulate the spine to treat the disease of the patient.

By the way, the conventional heat therapy device made as described above has a problem that the therapeutic effect is lowered if the transport path of the heat therapy ceramics is set to be constant and the transport path does not match the spine of the patient lying on the mat.

In addition, according to the rule of thumb that the part of the pain that is more painful than other parts when pressing the spine is related to the patient's disease, the patient pauses the transfer of the heat therapy ceramics from the painful area during heat treatment, or Intensive round trips around the area have been implemented to treat heat.

However, such a conventional treatment method has a problem that it is very difficult to treat by precisely positioning the thermal therapy ceramics on the spine to be treated and the treatment effect is also reduced.

Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the problems described above, even when the patient's spine and the longitudinal transfer path does not match, the width of the transfer can be effectively transported to find the therapeutic spine, thereby improving the therapeutic effect. The purpose is to provide a thermal therapy device.

Another object of the present invention is to automatically display the spine of the patient and then display it on the screen, and then compare and diagnose data related to the relationship between the spine and the disease previously inputted in the controller, so that the general public with less medical knowledge is easily accessible. It is to provide a heat treatment device that can be treated.
