Abstract
An electric therapy apparatus 1 of the present invention includes: a voltage generating unit 14 for generating a predetermined voltage; a control unit 2 for varying the voltage generated by the voltage generating unit 14 and the output time of the voltage according to a 1/f fluctuation cycle; and potential therapy conductor terminals 27, 28 for applying the potential from the voltage generating unit 14 to a therapy object, and as a result, the therapy object is prevented from getting acclimatized to stimulation by a constant potential, thereby allowing the human body to be imparted with a relaxing feeling, while sustaining the therapeutic effect of the apparatus.
Claims16
A potential therapy apparatus, comprising:
- a voltage generating unit for generating a predetermined voltage;
- a control unit for varying, according to a 1/f fluctuation cycle, a voltage generated by the voltage generating unit and varying output time of the voltage;
- and
- a potential therapy conductor terminal for applying potential from the voltage generating unit to a therapy object.
A combined electric therapy apparatus, comprising:
- a voltage generating unit for generating a predetermined voltage;
- a pulse voltage generating unit for generating a predetermined pulse voltage;
- a control unit for controlling the voltage generating unit and the pulse voltage generating unit;
- a potential therapy conductor terminal for applying potential from the voltage generating unit to a therapy object;
- and
- a low-frequency therapy conductor terminal for applying pulse current from the pulse voltage generating unit to a therapy object, wherein
- the control unit causes the voltage generated by the voltage generating unit, and the output time of the voltage, to vary according to a 1/f fluctuation cycle, and causes the pulse height, pulse width and pause time of the pulse voltage generated by the pulse voltage generating unit to vary according to a 1/f fluctuation cycle.
