Abstract
An apparatus and method for decompressing invertebral discs, relieving back pain, and promoting back healing is provided, involving a pelvic harness, elastic member, and foot-pad-pressing unit. The pelvic harness has a back side and a front side. The back side of the pelvic harness is connected to the elastic member's top end. The elastic member's bottom end is connected to the foot-pad-pressing unit. The foot-pad-pressing unit has a centrally located connector receptacle. The centrally located connector receptacle is used to attach the bottom end of the elastic member to the foot-pad-pressing unit.
Claims1
An apparatus for decompressing invertebral discs, relieving back pain, and promoting back healing comprising:
- a pelvic harness having a support belt and a connecting mechanism, the support belt having a back side and a front side, the connecting mechanism being affixed to the back side of the support belt;
- a pelvic-harness connector having a looped end and a studded end, the looped end being removably connected to the connecting mechanism;
- a metallic spring having a bottom end and a top end, the top end being secured to the studded end of the pelvic-harness connector;
- a pressing-unit connector having a connecting end and an adjusting end, the connecting end being secured to the bottom end of the metallic spring, the adjusting end having a beginning-threaded end and a stopping-threaded end, the stopping-threaded end beginning midway along the pressing-unit connector;
- a foot-pad-pressing unit having a metal sheet and an adjusting means, the metal sheet having a top side, an under side, an upward-facing surface, a downward-facing surface, and at least one centrally located connector receptacle where the adjusting end of the pressing-unit connector is engaged;
- a rolling mechanism attached to the downward-facing surface of the metal sheet;
- and wherein the adjusting means includes an upper turn-bolt and a lower turn-bolt, the upper turn-bolt being positioned on the stopping-threaded end of the pressing-unit connector and adjacent to the top side of the metal sheet, the lower turn-bolt being positioned on the beginning-threaded end of the pressing-unit connector and adjacent to the under side of the metal sheet.
