Abstract: A therapeutic apparatus and a method for providing parallel mobilization treatment of a muscle or a tendon in a limb utilizing the therapeutic apparatus. The therapeutic apparatus includes a driven endless belt which travels along a path, with a plurality of contact elements projecting from and spaced along the machine direction of the endless belt. The apparatus can provide parallel mobilization treatment to a tender location by releasably securing the therapeutic apparatus to a limb overlaying the tender location, and activating the therapeutic apparatus to drive the contact elements along a path wherein the contact elements contact and effect parallel mobilization of a muscle or a tendon at the tender location as the contact elements travel along an interaction segment of the path.

Abstract: A cover system for pontoon boats is provided. The cover system facilitates the expeditious covering of a pontoon boat. The cover system includes a plurality of support bows that are laterally extendable across a pontoon boat deck and attachable to the railing of a superstructure thereof. A cover is affixed to a tubular roller that is configured to extend and retract the cover over the plurality of support bows. Support arms disposed at ends of the tubular roller include brackets for mounting the tubular roller onto the superstructure of a pontoon boat and supporting the cover on a side thereof. A handle is attached to the cover for enabling a user to manually extend the cover over the plurality of support bows. The tubular roller is operably coupled to an actuator that is configured to rotate the roller and retract the cover.
