System and method for a low profile vibrating plate

摘要

A wearable medical treatment system and method are provided for the treatment of tissue ailments and/or conditions including vascular disease, deep vein thrombosis, orthostatic intolerance, reduced blood flow, weak bone structure, orthostatic hypotension, or other conditions, using a vibrating plate. The wearable system and method use magnetic layers to generate magnetic fields to provide vertical and/or horizontal vibrational motion to a platform, thus allowing the system to have a low profile.

主权项

1. A wearable apparatus for treating tissue ailments comprising:
a low profile base, a platform movably connected to said low profile base in spaced relation thereto, a first magnetic layer interconnected to said platform and at least partially movable therewith, a second magnetic layer interconnected to said low profile base in substantially aligned relation to said first magnetic layer, said first and second magnetic layers comprising equivalent polarities resulting in a repellent force being developed therebetween, at least said second magnetic layer comprising adjustable magnetic properties to impart vibratory movement to said first magnetic layer and said platform, and said platform and said low profile base cooperatively structured to at least partially define footwear.
