Beneficial effects

[0009] This utility model features a drive rod, connecting rod, worm gear, and positioning block that work together to allow the movable plate to be raised and lowered longitudinally by turning the rocker handle. This allows for flexible adjustment of the headrest support height according to actual massage needs and the patient's body shape. The reasonable headrest height ensures that the patient's cervical spine maintains its natural physiological curvature, improving patient comfort. Furthermore, when the patient is prone, lowering the headrest allows the patient's face to be embedded in the headrest hole, reducing pressure on the face, eyes, and nose, keeping the airway unobstructed, and effectively preventing discomfort caused by breathing difficulties.

[0010] This utility model's C-shaped plate is embedded in the rotating block by a limiting plate, which increases the mounting support for the worm gear hoisting point and limits its position, so that it can rotate axially while maintaining its longitudinal height, thus preventing it from moving away and detaching, affecting the linkage effect between the components, and improving the structural stability.

[0011] This utility model has a flexible structure and can quickly adjust the headrest support height according to actual massage needs and patient body shape. With a reasonable headrest height, the patient's cervical spine can always maintain its natural physiological curvature, improving patient comfort while avoiding pressure on the patient's mouth and nose when the patient is lying prone, ensuring smooth breathing and improving the comfort of traditional Chinese massage.
