A massage, massage and correction device for torticollis

Abstract

Disclosed is a massage and corrective device for torticollis, comprising a chest fixing mechanism (1), a back fixing mechanism (2), a head assembly (3) provided on the back fixing mechanism (2), a corrective mechanism (4) located between the head assembly (3) and the back fixing mechanism (2), and a massage mechanism (6) provided at one side of the head assembly (3). The corrective mechanism (4) in the device is engaged with a driving screw (46) via a gear (45), and a driven screw (44) is engaged with an eccentric gear (43), thereby steadily implementing stretching exercise of a patient's neck with high stability and slow speed, so that the device can perform neck correction repeatedly and continuously. In addition, the device is further equipped with the massage mechanism (6) and a medicine for performing massage operations such as pinching on an enclosed mass portion of the sternocleidomastoid muscle on an affected side, thereby realizing assisted therapy of the correction. The corrective mechanism (4) and the massage mechanism (6) are used cooperatively, thereby achieving a better comprehensive therapeutic effect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of massage, massage and orthopedic instruments, in particular to a massage, massage and orthopedic device for torticollis.
