METHOD FOR DETERMINING BODY TYPE FOR THERMOTHERAPY DEVICE

摘要

Disclosed herein a method of determining the type of human body in a thermo-therapeutic apparatus. In the method of determining the type of human body in a thermo-therapeutic apparatus, a control unit scans the entire spine of a user by moving a moxibustion device using a horizontal motor, measures the operating current of the horizontal motor, calculates the length of the spine of the human body based on the measured operating current, and precisely determines the positions of the cervical vertebrae, the thoracic vertebrae, the lumbar vertebrae, and the coccyx that form the spine. As a result, acupuncture points suitable for a specific person are calculated and then the calculated acupuncture points are enabled to be used to administer thermotherapy.
