A mist head is provided for adding in liquid forms of vitamins, hormones, and other therapeutic elements capable of being absorbed by the skin. The cover has large translucent side panels for the majority of the sides of the panels, and is supported on a central spine frame pivoted at a foot end to the base, with a hoop at its open or head end. The cover hinges to open and close relative to the base.

Abstract: The present invention provides for a facial wetting apparatus having a substantially concave portion generally contoured to receive a user's face therein and including airway means adapted for communication with a user's mouth for breathing purposes, the device further being arranged to present water to the user's face when received in the device and such that the water presentation can continue and in a readily controlled manner without compromising the user's breathing which continues by way of the airway means.

Abstract: A vascular treatment apparatus, comprising a chair, a horizontal housing and a retractable cover. The cover has hot and cold fluid dispensers whereby alternating and pulsating sprays of hot fluid and cold fluid treat a patient. The housing section also includes hot and cold fluid dispensers. The temperature, pulse strength and pulse rate are controlled by a central processing unit. The central process unit also correlates patient information for observing patient progress and comparing with other patients. Skin conditioner and disinfectant dispensers are included. The chair swivels for easy patient entry. The inventive method includes alternating pulsing streams of hot and cold fluid, preferably alternating 3 seconds of hot fluid with 3 seconds of cold fluid. The hot fluid is between 32 degrees centigrade and 41 degrees centigrade, and the treatment duration is approximately 25 minutes. Preferably, before treatment, the temperature of the hot fluid is gradually raised.

Abstract: An enclosure including a quasi-bathtub embedded in a structure and underneath a treatment hood has a shallow, substantially rectangular, practically flat bottom and a longitudinal basin extending from the head side. The basin is and has less depth than the tub. Air evacuation ports are on a ledge of the tub and air intake ports slightly project above the upper ledge of the tub. A semi-cylindrical, removable hood fits on the upper ledge of the tub. A blower is connected between the evacuation ports and air intake ports. Pivoting manifolds are connected to laterally orientable shower heads. Red and blue lights are alternately on for stimulation and relaxation, respectively.

Abstract: A personalized therapeutic compartment includes a horizontal bed for supporting a person to be treated, and has a shower system with a plurality of shower nozzles arrayed above the bed so that a person can have a therapeutic shower while lying on the bed. The shower system includes a water source which may be colored and coordinated with a light source on the interior of the compartment. A source of aroma is provided that suggests the color used for total therapy treatment. Additional therapeutic steam and dry air can be provided as desired. A method of treatment disclosed includes chromatherapy using coordinated colors and aroma and if desired requested colors for therapy of different portions of the body of a user.

Abstract: An apparatus for burning calories of an individual. The apparatus includes a cooling mechanism adapted to cool the individual's temperature. The apparatus includes a controlling mechanism for controlling the rate at which the cooling mechanism cools the individual. A method for burning calories in an individual.
