A device for activation of the human spine system

Abstract: The device comprises at least one segment (1) having a plurality of bulges (2) separated by grooves (3). The bulges (2) have on their lateral sides a plurality of notches (4) each, additional notches (6) being arranged on the upper side of at least every third bulge (2). Connecting several segments (1) in a row is possible by having protrusions (8) on the front side of one segment and corresponding holes on the posterior side of the following segment (1) engage each other. The row, formed as described, can be used for treatment of the whole spine by simply placing it against the body such that the pairs of protrusions on each bulge 2 are applied to the vertebral column on both sides thereof. By placing the row in a holding bag and fastening it with holders around the body, it is possible to wear the device in upright position of the body, i.e. during any activity.

Description: This invention belongs to the field of devices applied in alternative medicine, especially in the field of devices for energetic activation of the human spine system. The technical problem solved by the invention is to provide a construction of a device for energetic activation of the spine system, in order to enable the device to be placed on the lying body, or wearing the device during walking, working etc. Energetic activation shall be understood to comprise inter alia applying mechanical energy by using the inventive apparatus for massage treatment and/or by applying thermal energy. It is even believed that the inventive apparatus can focus cosmic energy on the spine system to be treated. The device for energetic activation of the spine system, according to this invention, consists of one or more segments, each of them having a plurality of bulges and grooves. The bulges have a pair of protrusions each and on the lateral side of each such protrusion there are numerous transverse notches. Two additional notches may be provided between the two protrusions, on the upper side of every third bulge. The bulges may have two concentrically arranged cylindrical extensions on each of their front sides. The segments are adapted to be connected with other segments in a row, using corresponding protrusions and holes. The number of segments in a row depends on the length of the spine or other part of the human body which needs treatment. By energetic focussing in the zone of the spine (as a whole or parts thereof), an optimal condition of the spine is easily achieved. Thereby, the activation of regular biological processes in that part of the body are induced and brought into harmony. That positive effect is achieved by eliminating energetic blockades in the spine zone, whereby biologic blockades are eliminated as well. The device consists of segments which can be used individually for local treatment of the cervical or lumbal part of the spine, or in a row, when it represents an optimal system for energetic treatment of the whole spine. The inventive device may be used as it is (without cover), by placing it on a lying body, or in a bag, with fastening belts, for use in upright, sitting or lying position as well as in motion. The invention will be more closely explained by drawings in which: Fig. 1 represents a device for energetic activation of the spine system in axonometric view, Fig. 2 represents the device of Fig. 1 in horizontal view, Fig. 3 represents the device of Fig. 1 in lateral view, Fig. 4 represents the device of Fig. 1 in horzontal view from the inferior side, Fig. 5 represents the partial section B-B of Fig. 2, Fig. 6 represents the section A-A of Fig. 2, Fig. 7 represents the treatment of the cervical spine with one segment of the device, and Fig. 8 represents the treatment of the whole spine with a row of segments of the kind shown in Fig. 1. According to the drawings, the device for energetic activation of the spine system consists of one or more segments 1. Each such segment 1 may be made from metal or ceramic material which is suitable in particular for thermal treatment of the human body. In preferred embodiments, however, the segments are made from PVC or similar plastics material. Each individual segment 1 has numerous transverse bulges 2 separated from each other by grooves 3. Each bulge 2 has on its lateral side numerous notches or cuts 4. On the upper side of each third one of the bulges 2 two grooves 6 are arranged. Each bulge 2 has two concentrically arranged cylindrical extensions 5 on its front side. Furthermore, each segment 1 has, on its front side, a horizontally arranged flange 7 with two preferably cylindrical protrusions or studs 8 and a pair of holes 9. On its posterior side, each segment 1 has a flange 10 with two pairs of holes 9, 11. On the inferior side, each segment 1 has numerous apertures 12 shaped as lines and dots. Connecting several segments 1 in a row N is possible by having the protrusions 8 on the front side of one segment and corresponding holes 11 on the posterior side of the following segment 1 engage each other. The row N, formed as described, can be used for treatment of the whole spine by simply placing it on the lying body such that the pairs of protrusions on each bulge 2 are applied to the vertebral column on both sides thereof. By placing the row N in a holding bag S and fastening it with holders P around the body, it is possible to wear the device in upright position of the body, i.e. during any activity. During all that time the spine is treated correctly. If it is unnecessary to treat the whole spine it is possible, with holder P, to fasten only one segment 1 or a few of them in row on that part of the spine which needs treatment. This application of the invention is represented in Fig. 7.
