161 MUSCLE CONDITIONING APPARATUS US12374332 2007-07-19 US20090312160A1 2009-12-17 Douglas Alasdair Goodwin Higgins
An apparatus (10) for muscle conditioning comprises a supporting body (12), a hood-shaped pad (14), moveable relative to the body (12), and resistive means in the form of a weight stack (16) and suspension mechanism (18). The weight stack (16) is coupled to the hood-shaped pad (14) via the suspension mechanism (18), such that a resistive force can be applied against movement of the hood-shaped pad (14) from a first position relative to the body (12) to a second position relative to the body (12). The apparatus enables the conditioning of the muscles required for successful rugby scrummaging.

163 Shoulder-neck-shaper US11978506 2008-01-22 US20090187128A1 2009-07-23 Siddappa Nagabhushan
Shoulder-Neck-Shaper is designed mainly to alleviate the discomfort of upper back and neck in workers.Since the revolution of “IT” and “service industries” more and more of the workers sit at the desk hours and hours with neck bent and shoulder drooping forwards.Similarly workers working over the counter tops have similar complaints. SNS unit will help in squaring the shoulders relieving the constant stretch of upper back of the top and inner connecting muscles of the shoulder blades.Similarly a more natural position of the neck will help to relieve the discomfort at the junction of neck and upper thoracic spine. It may also relieve any pins and needles in arms by opening numeral foramina of the neck bones by relieving any stretched nerves of neck and upper back.

165 Machine and Method for Head, Neck and, Shoulder Stretching US12013295 2008-01-11 US20080176714A1 2008-07-24 John P. Boren
A machine and method of stretching and exercising the human body, specifically the head, neck, and upper shoulder region. The machine employs three separate user-controlled actuators to allow the user to move and adjust her head, neck, and upper shoulders to almost limitless positions and with utmost precision, thereby effectively stretching and exercising the user's occipital region to achieve the desired comfort level. Because the user is in control of the precise actuator movements, and hence the exact positioning of her occipital region, the machine is much easier and safer to operate and more effective than other exercise and/or physical strengthening devices.
