[0001] This Application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No.63 / 749,448, filed on January 24, 2025, and to U.S. Non-Provisional Patent Application No.19 / 457,933, filed on January 23, 2026, which claims priority to the above-identified U.S. provisional patent application. The entire disclosures of the foregoing U.S. provisional and non-provisional patent applications are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0002] The present invention relates generally to health, wellness, and therapeutic treatment systems, and more particularly to an integrated, enclosed treatment capsule configured to deliver multiple therapeutic modalities to a human user. The invention specifically pertains to systems and methods for providing coordinated and customizable therapies, including, but not limited to, dry salt therapy, wet salt therapy, red-light and nearinfrared light therapy, aromatherapy, oxygen therapy, environmental control, and related wellness treatments within a single multifunctional enclosure under centralized control.

[0003] The invention further relates to electronically controlled wellness treatment apparatuses employing programmable interfaces, sensors, and control logic to regulate treatment parameters such as duration, intensity, airflow, particle concentration, illuminationwavelength, oxygen delivery, temperature, and humidity, for use in residential, commercial, medical, therapeutic, athletic, and hospitality environments.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0004] Health and wellness treatment technologies such as salt therapy, wet salt or saline therapy, red-light therapy, aromatherapy, and oxygen therapy are widely used to support respiratory health, skin care, relaxation, stress reduction, and overall physical and mental wellbeing. Traditionally, these therapeutic modalities are delivered using separate devices, dedicated rooms, or independent installations, each designed to perform a single function or limited set of functions.

[0005] As a result, existing wellness treatment environments typically require substantial physical space and significant capital investment to accommodate multiple standalone systems. The use of separate devices also increases operational complexity, maintenance requirements, and energy consumption, while limiting accessibility for users and providers. Moreover, the fragmented nature of current solutions often results in a disjointed user experience, requiring users to move between multiple rooms or systems in order to receive different therapies during a single wellness session.

[0006] Conventional wellness systems are generally standardized in configuration and operation, offering limited ability to personalize or coordinate treatment parameters across multiple therapeutic modalities. In many cases, therapies are delivered independently rather than in a synchronized manner, and control of environmental conditions, such as airflow, temperature, humidity, and treatment duration, is managed separately by each device. Further, parameters associated with individual therapies, including salt delivery characteristics, oxygen delivery characteristics, light output settings, and aromatic diffusion levels, are typically adjusted in isolation, if adjustable at all. This lack of integration can limit the ability to providecoordinated, repeatable, and customized multi-therapy treatment programs tailored to individual users.

[0007] In particular, no commercially available system is capable of delivering dry salt therapy, wet salt therapy, red-light therapy, aromatherapy, and oxygen therapy simultaneously within a single enclosed and unified structure. Existing salt therapy solutions are typically limited to either dry or wet delivery methods and are not integrated with additional therapeutic technologies. Similarly, red-light therapy, aromatherapy, and oxygen therapy are commonly administered using separate equipment that is not designed to operate in a coordinated or enclosed environment.

[0008] Accordingly, there exists a need for an integrated wellness treatment system that consolidates multiple therapeutic modalities into a single enclosed capsule, reduces space and operational requirements, and enables centralized control of treatment parameters. Such a system would allow therapies to be delivered independently or in coordinated sequences, simultaneously or according to predefined programs, while providing a personalized, efficient, and repeatable wellness experience. The present invention addresses these and other deficiencies of existing health and wellness treatment technologies.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0009] The present invention provides an integrated multifunction treatment capsule configured to deliver a plurality of therapeutic modalities within a single enclosed and unified structure. The capsule defines an interior environment sized to accommodate a human user and houses multiple therapeutic subsystems, including dry salt therapy, wet salt or saline therapy, red-light and near-infrared light therapy, aromatherapy, oxygen therapy, and environmental conditioning features. The therapeutic subsystems are integrated within the enclosure such that each therapy may be delivered independently, sequentially, or simultaneously during a singletreatment session, thereby enabling coordinated and customizable wellness experiences that are not achievable using conventional single-modality systems.

While the invention has been described with reference to exemplary embodiments, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes may be made, and equivalents may be substituted for elements thereof without departing from the scope of the disclosure. In addition, many modifications may be made to adapt a particular structure or material to the teachings of the disclosure without departing from the essential scope thereof.

[0023] The drawings accompanying the application are for illustrative purposes only. They are not intended to limit the embodiments of the present application. Additionally, the drawings are not drawn to scale. Common elements between different figures may retain the same numerical designation.

[0024] The present invention relates to an integrated multifunction treatment capsule configured to deliver multiple therapeutic modalities within a single enclosed system. The integrated multifunction treatment capsule is designed to overcome the limitations of conventional single-modality wellness devices by consolidating a plurality of therapeutic subsystems into a unified enclosure capable of providing coordinated, personalized, and repeatable treatment sessions.

[0025] In exemplary embodiments, the integrated multifunction treatment capsule defines an enclosed interior sized to accommodate a human user in a seated, reclined, or partially reclined position. The enclosure houses a plurality of therapeutic subsystems, which may include, but are not limited to, dry salt aerosol delivery, wet salt or saline aerosol delivery, red-light and near-infrared light therapy, aromatherapy diffusion, oxygen enrichment ordelivery, air purification and filtration, humidity control, temperature control, sound therapy, and guided breathing or relaxation protocols. The therapeutic subsystems are integrated within the enclosure in a manner that allows efficient delivery of one or more therapies to the user during a single treatment session, during successive treatment sessions, or as part of a predefined, repeatable, or customizable treatment protocol executed over time.

[0026] Each therapeutic subsystem of the integrated multifunction treatment capsule may be configured to operate independently or in coordinated sequences with one or more other therapeutic subsystems. In some embodiments, multiple therapeutic modalities may be delivered simultaneously, while in other embodiments the therapeutic subsystems may be activated sequentially according to a predetermined treatment program. This flexible operational architecture enables selective combination and coordination of therapies based on individual user preferences or therapeutic objectives.

[0027] The integrated multifunction treatment capsule further includes a control system operatively coupled to the therapeutic subsystems and configured to regulate operational parameters associated with each therapy. Such parameters may include, but are not limited to, therapy duration, therapy intensity, airflow characteristics, salt particle concentration, saline aerosol output, light wavelength and intensity, oxygen flow or concentration, and environmental conditions within the enclosure, including temperature and humidity. The control system may coordinate these parameters across multiple therapeutic subsystems to provide controlled and repeatable treatment protocols.

[0028] In exemplary embodiments, the control system may include manual controls, digital interfaces, touchscreen displays, software-based programming, remote operation capability, or network-connected functionality. These features allow users or operators to select, customize, store, and repeat personalized treatment programs with a high degree ofconsistency. The control system may further provide monitoring and status feedback to support reliable operation of the integrated multifunction treatment capsule.

[0029] The integrated multifunction treatment capsule may be constructed using modular components to facilitate scalability, customization, maintenance, and future upgrades. Modular construction allows therapeutic subsystems to be added, removed, or replaced without substantial modification to the enclosure. The system is suitable for deployment in a variety of environments, including, but not limited to, wellness centers, spas, medical and therapeutic facilities, gyms, hotels, resorts, athletic training facilities, professional sports organizations, transportation hubs, and residential settings.

[0030] By integrating multiple therapeutic modalities within a single enclosed and controllable system, the integrated multifunction treatment capsule reduces space and operational requirements, lowers overall system costs, enhances treatment personalization, and provides a coordinated wellness experience relative to conventional single-modality devices.

[0031] In an exemplary embodiment, the present invention provides a multifunctional health and treatment capsule that integrates wet salt therapy, dry salt therapy, red-light and near-infrared light therapy, aromatherapy, and oxygen therapy within a single enclosed and unified structure. Each therapeutic modality may be delivered individually or in any combination during a single treatment session under centralized control. The integration of multiple therapeutic technologies into a single multifunctional enclosure enables users to selectively combine, customize, and coordinate therapies in a streamlined and efficient manner. The capsule may be configured for residential or commercial use and provides advanced therapeutic capabilities in a convenient, user-friendly environment designed to reduce overall treatment time while maximizing therapeutic efficiency.

[0032] In exemplary embodiments, the treatment capsule is configured to simultaneously or sequentially target respiratory function, skin health, mental clarity, andemotional balance during a single treatment session. Dry salt therapy, also referred to as halotherapy, is provided by dispersing micronized dry salt particles into the air within the enclosed interior to create a controlled microclimate resembling that of natural salt caves or salt mines. Wet salt therapy, also referred to as saline or brine therapy, is delivered by aerosolizing a saline solution using a misting or nebulizing device, wherein water acts as a carrier medium for salt particles. The inclusion of both dry salt therapy and wet salt therapy subsystems within the same capsule enables delivery of distinct salt-based therapeutic modalities within a shared enclosed environment, either independently or in coordinated operation.

[0033] In some implementations, dry salt therapy is provided by a dry salt generator coupled to the interior of the treatment capsule and configured to mechanically grind, mill, or abrade pharmaceutical -grade sodium chloride into micron-sized particles. The dry salt generator may further include a dispersion mechanism, such as a fan or air propulsion system, that entrains the micronized salt particles into a controlled airflow and distributes them uniformly throughout the enclosed cabin. The generator is configured to regulate particle size, concentration, and flow rate to maintain a consistent dry salt microclimate within the interior during operation, wherein related operating parameters are controllable by a processing control unit.

[0034] In some implementations, wet salt therapy is provided by a wet salt generator coupled to the interior of the treatment capsule and configured to aerosolize a saline or brine solution. The wet salt generator may include a reservoir for holding the saline solution and a misting, ultrasonic, or nebulizing device that converts the solution into fine droplets suspended in air. The system may be configured to control droplet size, humidity, and saline concentration, thereby enabling delivery of a breathable saline mist into the enclosed cabin fortherapeutic exposure, either alone or in combination with dry salt therapy, wherein related operating parameters are controllable by a processing control unit.

[0035] The integrated treatment capsule can further include a red-light therapy subsystem configured to emit non-invasive wavelengths of red and near-infrared light, which in exemplary embodiments may include wavelengths of approximately 660 nanometers and approximately 850 nanometers. Such light therapy is configured to promote cellular health, tissue regeneration, joint recovery, and muscle recovery, and may assist in reducing pain, inflammation, and stiffness associated with muscular, joint, or tissue conditions. The red-light therapy subsystem may be configured to control treatment parameters including wavelength selection, light intensity, exposure duration, and duty cycle to deliver a targeted photobiomodulation effect. In some implementations, the red-light therapy subsystem includes one or more light sources mounted within the interior of the capsule to provide uniform or localized illumination. Related operating parameters of the red-light therapy subsystem are controllable by a processing control unit.

[0036] The integrated treatment capsule can further include an oxygen therapy subsystem configured to enrich or regulate the breathing environment within the enclosure to promote relaxation, revitalization, and improved breathing efficiency. In some implementations, oxygen therapy is provided by an oxygen generator, oxygen concentrator, or compressed oxygen tank operably connected to the interior of the capsule and configured to deliver oxygen-enriched air into the enclosed breathing space. The oxygen therapy subsystem may be configured to control parameters including oxygen concentration, flow rate, delivery duration, and timing relative to other therapeutic modalities. Oxygen may be delivered continuously or intermittently through one or more outlets positioned within the capsule to promote even distribution. Related operating parameters of the oxygen therapy subsystem are controllable by a processing control unit.

[0037] Additionally, an aromatherapy subsystem may be configured to deliver aromatic substances into the enclosed interior of the treatment capsule to promote physical, mental, and emotional well-being. In exemplary embodiments, the aromatherapy subsystem utilizes natural plant extracts, including essential oils, which may be administered through inhalation using airflow-based diffusion, vapor-based diffusion, steam-based delivery, or combinations thereof. The aromatherapy subsystem may be operatively coupled to the control system to regulate delivery parameters such as oil selection, diffusion rate, concentration, timing, and duration.

[0038] Aromatherapy provided by the treatment capsule may deliver therapeutic effects including, but not limited to, relaxation, stress and anxiety reduction, mood enhancement, improved sleep quality, pain management, improved digestion, immune system support, and overall emotional balance. In exemplary embodiments, aromatherapy delivery may be tailored to individual user preferences or therapeutic objectives through selection of specific aromatic compounds and adjustable delivery settings. The aromatherapy subsystem may operate independently or in coordination with one or more additional therapeutic subsystems of the treatment capsule during a treatment session.

[0039] In some implementations, the aromatherapy subsystem is provided by one or more aromatic oil diffusers coupled to the interior of the treatment capsule and configured to disperse aromatic substances into the enclosed environment. By way of example, the diffuser may include an ultrasonic diffuser that uses high-frequency vibrations to atomize a liquid containing one or more essential oils into a fine mist without the application of heat. In other implementations, the diffuser may include a nebulizing diffuser, a fan-assisted diffuser, or a vaporizing diffuser configured to deliver aromatic compounds in a controlled manner. The one or more diffusers may be positioned to promote uniform distribution of aromatic substances within the capsule and may be configured to operate continuously or intermittently during atreatment session. Delivery parameters including oil selection, diffusion rate, concentration, timing, and duration may be adjustable, wherein related operating parameters of the aromatherapy subsystem are controllable by a processing control unit.

[0040] In some implementations, the integrated treatment capsule includes a controllable reclining seat coupled to the interior cabin and configured to support a user in one or more seated or reclined positions during a treatment session. The reclining seat may include one or more heating features, such as a heated mat, heating pad, resistive heating elements, or embedded heating coils integrated into a seat base, backrest, or leg support, and configured to provide localized or full-body warmth. The reclining seat may further include one or more massage features provided by massage components coupled to the seat, which may include mechanical actuators, vibrating elements, rollers, or pneumatic massage elements such as air bladders configured to inflate and deflate to apply pressure to selected regions of a user’s body. In exemplary embodiments, the reclining position, heat output, massage intensity, massage pattern, and duration may be adjustable to accommodate user comfort and therapeutic preferences.

[0041] In combination, the integrated delivery of salt-based therapies, light therapy, oxygen therapy, and aromatherapy within a single enclosed capsule provides synergistic therapeutic benefits that may include respiratory relief, skin care, detoxification, relaxation, stress reduction, improved circulation, immune system support, enhanced mental clarity, and emotional balance. The ability to coordinate and customize these therapies within a single system allows the treatment capsule to provide a comprehensive, repeatable, and personalized treatment experience that is not achievable using conventional standalone or single-modality wellness devices.

[0042] In exemplary embodiments, the integrated multifunction treatment capsule employs a centralized control architecture configured to enable rapid setup, efficient operation,and simplified maintenance of the therapeutic subsystems. Centralized control reduces system complexity and downtime by coordinating operation of multiple therapeutic modalities through a unified hardware and software framework. Such architecture facilitates streamlined system diagnostics, software updates, and subsystem management, thereby enhancing overall reliability and service availability.

[0043] The control system may include a user-facing interface accessible via a tablet, touchscreen, or similar digital device, allowing users to easily select, activate, deactivate, or combine one or more therapeutic modalities during a treatment session. The interface may support customizable treatment settings that enable therapies to be tailored to individual health and wellness preferences or objectives. In exemplary embodiments, the interface presents a clean and intuitive layout with visual indicators, guided prompts, and informational tooltips to assist users in navigating available treatment options, therapy combinations, and customization levels.

[0044] In some embodiments, technical aspects of system configuration and operation may be managed by an operator, technician, or staff member. A comprehensive control panel may display user selections, subsystem status, and corresponding operational parameters in real time. The control system may guide the operator through step-by-step setup procedures, including automated verification routines configured to confirm proper deployment, calibration, and functionality of selected therapeutic subsystems prior to or during operation.

[0045] The control system may further be configured to monitor system performance in real time and generate alerts, notifications, or status messages in response to detected conditions, such as parameter deviations, maintenance requirements, or subsystem faults. Such monitoring capabilities allow operators to proactively maintain service quality, ensure user safety and comfort, and promptly address user inquiries or operational issues. The centralizedcontrol architecture thereby supports efficient management, scalability, and consistent delivery of coordinated wellness treatments within the integrated multifunction treatment capsule.

[0046] The multifunctional treatment capsule may be constructed from a variety of structural and functional materials selected to provide durability, user comfort, aesthetic appeal, and compatibility with the integrated therapeutic subsystems. Such materials may include, but are not limited to, fiberglass, metals, composite materials, polymers, glass, leather or synthetic upholstery materials, acoustic materials, and electronic and electrical components. The materials may be selected to withstand exposure to moisture, salt particles, light emissions, airflow, temperature variations, and repeated use in residential or commercial environments.

[0047] In exemplary embodiments, the exterior surface of the capsule is molded from fiberglass to provide a lightweight, rigid, and corrosion-resistant enclosure. Fiberglass construction allows for smooth, contoured exterior and interior surfaces that enhance structural integrity and ease of cleaning. The molded fiberglass exterior may further support integration of access panels, lighting elements, ventilation openings, control interfaces, and mounting features for internal therapeutic subsystems. In some embodiments, the exterior may be finished with protective coatings, decorative surfaces, or antimicrobial treatments to enhance durability and hygiene.

[0048] Internal structural components, mounting frames, or subsystem housings may be formed from metal or reinforced composite materials to provide mechanical strength and thermal stability. Interior user-contact surfaces may incorporate padded elements, seating structures, or liners formed from leather, synthetic leather, or other comfort-enhancing materials. Electronic components, sensors, wiring, and control modules may be housed within dedicated compartments to protect sensitive equipment and facilitate maintenance, upgrades, or replacement.

[0049] In exemplary embodiments, the materials and components used in construction of the multifunctional treatment capsule are selected to satisfy applicable safety, fire-resistance, and durability requirements for residential and commercial installations. Structural, interior, and electronic components may be formed from materials that are flame-retardant, fire-resistant, or self-extinguishing, and may comply with applicable electrical, building, and safety standards. Electrical wiring, control circuitry, lighting elements, and heating or airflow components may be insulated, shielded, and isolated to reduce fire risk and enhance operational safety during use.

[0050] Additionally, material selection and surface treatments may be configured to mitigate corrosion, degradation, or performance loss resulting from prolonged exposure to salt particles, saline aerosols, humidity, and other environmental conditions associated with saltbased therapies. In exemplary embodiments, interior and structural components may be fabricated from corrosion-resistant metals, coated composites, or polymer-based materials, and may include protective finishes, sealants, or barriers to inhibit salt accumulation and moisture penetration. Such corrosion-mitigating features enhance long-term durability, reduce maintenance requirements, and preserve reliable operation of therapeutic subsystems, airflow pathways, and electronic components within the enclosed environment.
