  • Patent number: 5211184
    Abstract: The apparatus comprises a bandage assembly further comprising a bandage, a contact point and at least two electrode assembly installation components integrated into the bandage; an electrode assembly installed in each installation component, a source for electrical signals, and conductors to carry the signals to the electrode assemblies. The bandage assembly is attached by straps or other appropriate means to a person with the contact point contacting a specific anatomic point and oriented in a specific direction relative to a selected anatomic feature. With the bandage so installed the electrode assemblies in the installation components are positioned precisely at acupuncture points. Treatment occurs when the signals from the source are applied to the electrode assemblies. Each electrode assembly comprises a body and a wick-like electrode inserted through the body. The body is hollow and filled with electrically conductive fluid which, when absorbed by the electrode, renders the electrode conductive.
