Water container with an ozone diffuser-Patent number: 10967335

Abstract: A water container with an ozone diffuser is an apparatus that is used to diffuse ozone gas into water that is either flowing through the apparatus or is retained by the apparatus. The apparatus includes an aeration chamber, an ozone generator coupler, a distribution hub, a plurality of porous tubes, and a degassing unit. The ozone generator coupler allows the apparatus to connect with a pressurized supply of ozone gas. The aeration chamber is used to retain the water that is currently being aerated by the ozone gas. The distribution hub receives the ozone gas from the ozone generator coupler and distributes the ozone gas amongst the porous tubes. The ozone gas is then evenly inserted from the porous tubes into the water retained by the aeration chamber. The degassing unit is used to neutralize the excess ozone before exhausting the excess ozone into the apparatus’s surroundings.

Water Sterilization System with Multipurpose Degasser -Patent Number:  10786758

Abstract: A sterilization system with multipurpose degasser has a vortex mixing cylinder, an endcap, and a deionization system. The vortex mixing cylinder is a container that has an inlet an outlet. The inlet and out enable an ozone-water mixture to flow into a mixing chamber within the vortex mixing cylinder. The mixing chamber is designed to facilitate the formation of an ozone saturated ozone-water mixture. The endcap is used to cover an opening of the mixing chamber and is used to expel gasses out of the mixing chamber. The deionization system is an electrical filter that removes ozone particles from the air within the mixing chamber. The deionization system is mounted in between the vortex mixing cylinder and the endcap. Accordingly, gasses must pass through the deionization system prior to being expelled through the endcap. The ozone particles are removed from the gasses being expelled through the endcap, prior to expulsion.

Back Roller - Patent Number:  D915613

Why is the "Back Trac" THE BEST Foam Roller for Mid-Back Pain Relief?  The Back Trac foam roller is squishy and does not crunch the spinous.

The Back Trac allows your spinal joints to STRETCH! 

Each vertebra has four joint surfaces (for a total of 364 joints in the spine) that connect to other vertebrae and connect with the spinal discs, ribs, sacrum, skull, and other structures. By lying on the Back Trac and rolling back and forth, your body weight applies pressure to realign your vertebrae. This process stretches the intervertebral joints, hydrates spinal discs, opens the meninges, and reduces pinched nerves, which improves joint health and global alignment. After rolling on the Back Trac, almost everyone will hear their vertebrae pop and feel the realignment so that when you stand up, you will feel taller and straighter! In addition, the instant relief you can feel from your back pain is amazing!

Back Roll Spinal Brace -Patent Number:  D859668

Abstract: Foam rolls are standard home fitness tools that promote myofascial release and are not specifically known for fixing chronic low back and neck pain.

Our patented foam rolls have a different purpose and effect because they promote proper curvature of the spine, which reduces tension, tightness, and low back and neck pain. Simply lay over the rolls and relax while your muscles release and your bones shift.

Other foam rolls crunch the spinous and lack design features to remold the spinal column. Our rolls act like a spinal support brace with a specialized groove to guide the lumbar and cervical vertebrae. The groove supports the vertebrae transverse process while simultaneously letting the spinous float. The body's weight in the supine (lying position) over strategically positioned rolls relieves tight muscles so the vertebrae can shift and settle into a healthier position and curvature. Picture a locomotive (train) moving down the train track, being guided in the correct direction. Shape is critical because you can never change the muscle bone attachment points, and tight muscles mean the vertebrae are in the wrong position. Our spinal fitness foam rolls provide the passive guidance you need to remold the spine's shape for the first time.

The Back Shaper rolls come in five (5) different diameters and three (3) different densities. The back rolls are twelve (12) inches long.
