Support system for treatment device

A support system for a handpiece, comprising:

• a boom assembly including a flexible anchor rod having proximal and distal ends, the flexible rod being operably secured at the proximal end thereof to a base, the flexible rod having a flexibility than increases from the proximal end to a distal end thereof;
• and
• a connection assembly having a proximal end configured to couple to the distal end of the flexible rod and a distal end configured to couple to the handpiece,
• wherein the boom assembly is configured to support the connection assembly and the handpiece such that when the connection assembly and the handpiece are in an undocked position, the handpiece can be maneuvered with a level of effort that is less than or equal to 0.5 lbF in an envelope surrounding a neutral position of the handpiece.

A support system for a handpiece, comprising:

• a cart including a flexible rod operably coupled thereto;
• and
• a connection assembly having a proximal end configured to couple to the distal end of the flexible rod and a distal end configured to couple to the handpiece,
• wherein the boom assembly is configured to support the connection assembly and the handpiece such that the handpiece can be maneuvered with a level of effort that is less than or equal to 0.5 lbF in an envelope surrounding a neutral position of the handpiece.
