EQUIPMENT FOR THE SELECTIVE STIMULATION OF CERTAIN PARTS OF THE BODY

摘要

The invention relates to equipment for biomechanical stimulation, comprising a
base unit, a support unit (4) that is mounted on the base unit in such a way
that the position of the support unit can be continuously adjusted in relation
to the base unit and a cylindrical stimulation unit (9). The latter contains a
drive motor (10) and is connected to the support unit in such a way that
during operation it executes a circular or elliptical movement about an axis
that differs from the cylinder axis and undergoes a parallel displacement. The
equipment can used, in particular, for the selective therapeutic treatment of
certain parts of the body, preferably the leg or back muscles.
