Description

Laser paster and have its laser paster treatment group

Technical Field

The present invention relates to a laser patch and a laser patch treatment group having the same, and more particularly, to a laser patch having a built-in battery, which can be reused by charging, has a relatively small and thin plate shape, and thus is combined at a plurality of local positions to be selectively used, and a laser patch treatment group having the same.

Background

Generally, a medical drug called a patch or a pain patch is a drug that is attached to a human body to relieve pain of a patient. The patch is in the form of a tape coated with a patch liquid mixed with a binding liquid, and is used while being attached to the body of a patient. The patch includes hot or cold compress based on the component or kind of the applied liquid medicine, and is in a form of arranging a magnet or acupuncture at the center for highly improving the blood flow effect.

However, the above-mentioned patches, when attached due to the applied adhesive liquid or patch liquid, cause skin problems due to insufficient air circulation or the like, and side effects such as large and small burns, rashes, and erosion. In particular, it is difficult for people with congenital fragile skin or children to use it because of such side effects. Also, generally, the patch does not have a limited effect for radical treatment, and most of them can be used only once, and thus, there are problems of cost burden and not environmental protection when used for a long time.

On the other hand, a Low Level Laser (LLL) has various effects of relieving pain, improving blood flow, strengthening blood flow, regenerating skin, activating cells, decomposing fat, stimulating cells, etc. depending on a specific wavelength range, and is reported by various clinical data. In particular, the weak laser has a function of relatively safely promoting metabolism and activating cells, increasing immunity, etc., thereby restoring damaged cellular tissues, as compared to the high-power laser used for the purpose of destruction of skin tissues, intended burns or gangrene. In particular, when weak laser light having a specific wavelength range is selectively irradiated to the acupoints, the effect of acupuncture or moxibustion is exerted, and the pain of the skin or muscles is relieved and the treatment is promoted.

In the drawings, the size, form, thickness, curvature, and the like of each component are enlarged for effective explanation of technical contents, and the form can be changed by allowing an error or the like.

Hereinafter, a laser patch and a laser patch treatment set having the same according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Fig. 1 is a diagram showing a laser patch treatment group according to an embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 2 is a diagram for explaining a patch tape of a laser patch treatment group according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to fig. 1 and 2, a laser patch treatment set 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a patch tape 20, a charger 30, a laser patch 100, and a packing case (not shown) for receiving and storing these components.

The above-described laser patch 100 may be a device that irradiates laser light of relatively low power, i.e., weak laser light, to the skin. For example, the laser patch 100 may be irradiated with a weak laser beam of approximately 80mW or less. The laser patch 100 may be in the shape of a thin plate of a relatively small size. The laser patch 100 may have a plane with various shapes such as a circular plate shape, a rectangular plate shape, and an oval shape. A plurality of the laser patches 100 are formed in one package 40, and a user can assemble a plurality of the laser patches 10 into various types for use.

The patch band 20 may attach the laser patch 100 to a desired skin area of a user. As shown in fig. 2 (a), the patch tape 20 according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a fixing portion 22 for fixing a laser patch 100 and a tape portion 24 connected to the fixing portion 22. The band portion 24 arranges the laser patches 100 at desired positions and fixes them to the human body. In this case, the fixing portion 22 is an opening formed in the band portion 24, and the user fixes the band portion 24 by wrapping the band portion 24 around the human body after the user clamps the laser patch 100 on the fixing portion 22.

As shown in fig. 2 (b), a patch tape 20a according to another embodiment of the present invention is sandwiched between the laser patch 100, and has a fixing portion 22a formed by a velcro (velcro) process and a velcro-processed tape portion 24b detachably attached to the velcro of the fixing portion 22 a. In this case, the fixing portion 22a is attached to a desired position of the band portion 24b and used such that the laser patch 100 coupled to the fixing portion 22a corresponds to a desired portion of a user.

As shown in fig. 2 (c), a patch tape 20b according to another embodiment of the present invention includes a fixing portion 22b to be used by being sandwiched between laser patches 100, and an adhesive substance for fixing by adhesion or close contact with the skin may be applied to one surface of the fixing portion 22 b. In this case, the user can use the patch tape 20b by attaching the patch tape 20b to a desired position after the patch tape 20b is closely attached to the laser patch 100.

The charger 30 may be used to charge the laser patch 100. The charger 30 may include a charging converter 32 separate from or integrated with the charger 30 in such a manner that the plurality of laser patches 100 can be charged at the same time.

Next, the laser patch of the embodiment of the present invention is explained in detail. Here, a repetitive description of the above-described laser patch 100 is omitted or simplified.

Fig. 3 is a perspective view showing a laser patch according to an embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 4 is a sectional view showing the structure of the laser patch shown in fig. 3.

Referring to fig. 3 and 4, a laser patch 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a patch body 110, a circuit board 120, a built-in battery 130, a laser device 140, a detector 150, and a controller 160.

The patch body 110 has a substantially thin plate shape, and provides an internal space for protecting, disposing, and supporting the components 120, 130, 140, 150, and 160. For example, the patch body 110 is assembled with each other to form a first body 112a and a second body 112b of a thin plate-shaped body 112. The first body 112a has one surface to be coupled to a human body when therapy is performed, and the second body 112b has the other surface exposed when therapy is performed. One surface of the first body 112a may include a transmission hole 112c for transmitting the weak laser light. The second body 112b may include a work light 115 that allows a user to recognize a motion when a weak laser is irradiated or the laser patch 100 is moved.

On the other hand, the transmission hole 112c of the first body 112a may include a mirror 113 for diffusion of the weak laser light. For example, the lens 113 reduces linearity of light of a normal laser beam and spreads the laser beam over a wider area in a human body. For this purpose, a convex lens may be used as the lens 113. Accordingly, the weak laser beam passing through the transmission hole 112c can penetrate into a relatively wide human body part by transmitting through the mirror plate 113 and then diffusing. In this case, the dispersed irradiation of the weak laser beam to a relatively wide region is suitable for the purpose of use, that is, for the purpose of pain relief, lymph node stimulation, edema relief, skin stimulation, and the like.

As another example, the lens 113 may be used to maintain or enhance the linearity of the weak laser beam. For this, a concave mirror or a general transmission plate may be used for the mirror plate 113, whereby the weak laser light passing through the transmission hole 112c is concentrated or maintained to penetrate into a relatively narrow human body part after transmitting the mirror plate 113. In this case, the irradiation with the weak laser light is concentrated on a relatively narrow portion, and the irradiation is performed for the purpose of use, that is, for the purpose of improving blood flow, strengthening blood flow, activating cells, or the like.

The chip main body 110 is formed with a charging unit 116 connected to the charger 30 for charging the internal battery 120. The charging unit 116 may include a charging terminal 116a and a first charging lamp 116b and a second charging lamp 116c for identifying whether charging is completed or the remaining amount of the battery. The first charging lamp 116b includes a green led device for indicating the end of charging, and the second charging lamp 116c includes a red led device for indicating the charging.

Also, the patch body 110 may include various control buttons 118 for setting the treatment conditions of the laser patch 100. For example, the control buttons 118 may include: an open/close button 118a for opening and closing the weak laser device 140; a laser power adjusting button 118b for adjusting the laser power intensity of the weak laser device 140; and a timing button 118c for setting an operation time of the laser patch 100. The user can set the control buttons 118 to set the treatment conditions of the laser patch 100.

The circuit board 120 may be disposed inside the chip body 110. The circuit board 120 is disposed to face the first body 112a relatively closer to the battery pack 130. The Circuit Board 120 may include at least one Printed Circuit Board (Printed Circuit Board).

The built-in battery 130 is a rechargeable battery. The built-in battery 130 is charged by the charger 30, and the power for laser irradiation of the weak laser device 140 is supplied by internal power. The built-in battery 130 may be a lithium polymer battery in order to reduce the risk of explosion and fire. The laser patch 100 can be operated by the self-power of the built-in battery 130 without additional external power.

The weak laser device 140 is formed on the circuit board 120 so as to irradiate weak laser light to the outside through the transmission hole 112 c. In general, a weak laser beam exerts various effects such as pain relief, blood flow improvement, blood flow reinforcement, cell activation, lymph node stimulation, edema relief, and skin stimulation, and such effects are exerted in a weak laser beam having a specific wavelength range. For example, when the human body is irradiated with a power of 30mW or more in a wavelength range of approximately 630nm to 680nm for 20 minutes or more, the effects of pain relief, lymph node stimulation, edema relief, cell activation, and the like are relatively high, and when the human body is irradiated with a power of 30mW or more in a wavelength range of approximately 780nm to 990nm for 20 minutes or more, the effects of blood flow improvement, blood flow enhancement, cell activation, and the like are relatively high. Therefore, the weak laser device 140 described above uses devices of a plurality of wavelength ranges according to the use purpose described above.

Here, the weak laser device 140 emits much heat to the outside when generating laser light. The heat dissipation of the weak laser device 140 described above reduces the lifetime of the device and the reliability and safety of the product, and in particular, when performing a treatment, may cause a burn of the patient. Thus, a unit that efficiently releases heat of the weak laser device 140 described above is required. As such a unit, an additional heat radiation plate (not shown) may be disposed around the weak laser device 140. In this case, the thickness of the laser patch 100 has to be increased at least by the protrusion degree of the circuit board 120. However, the laser patch 100 of the present invention has the thinnest thickness for user convenience. That is, the thicker the thickness of the laser patch 100, the more it is exposed on the skin, and when it is in close contact with the skin, the greater the foreign body feeling or inconvenience is, and the appearance becomes ugly.

In order to solve the above problems, the laser patch 100 of the present invention may be configured such that the patch body 110 is made of a material having relatively high thermal conductivity, and a heat radiation plate for radiating heat of the weak laser device 140 to the outside or a heat transfer plate for transferring heat to a human body during therapy may be used. Therefore, the entire patch body 110 may be made of stainless steel, aluminum, copper, or other various metal materials, the skin contact surface may be made of a plastic material satisfying biocompatibility, and the inner side may be made of a body having a multi-layer structure of different materials formed of metal materials. In this case, the laser patch 100 generates heat from the weak laser device 140, so that a part or the whole of the patch body 110 is heated, and the proper heat of the patch body 110 is transferred to the human body, thereby performing thermotherapy. That is, the laser patch 100 performs thermotherapy due to self-heating of the patch body 110 together with basic weak laser therapy.

The detector 150 is used for therapeutic safety and proper therapeutic control of the laser patch 100. For example, the detector 150 may include a contact detection sensor 152 and a temperature detection sensor 154. When the laser patch 100 is used, the contact detection sensor 152 may detect whether one surface of the laser patch 100 is in contact with the skin of the user. For this reason, the contact detection sensor 152 may be a pressure sensor, an impedance sensor, a magnetic sensor, a capacitive sensor, or the like. Alternatively, the contact detection sensor 152 may be a sensor that detects whether the skin is in contact with the skin by a physical or mechanical means. For example, the contact detection sensor is a pin (pin) that protrudes normally, and a physical sensor that is inserted into the skin when it is coupled to the skin to detect whether contact is made or not can be used.

The temperature detection sensor 154 generates heat from the weak laser device 140, and thus the laser patch 100 generates heat, thereby preventing burn of a user during treatment. As described above, the patch body 110 of the present invention is formed of a material having relatively high conductivity, and the heat dissipation of the weak laser device 140 can be used for thermotherapy. In this case, however, burn due to excessive heat dissipation of the laser patch 110 may occur, and thus a safety technique for preventing the above phenomenon is required. For this purpose, the temperature detection sensor 154 is formed at least at one or more positions on the chip body 110 to detect the temperature of the chip body 110. For example, the temperature detection sensor 154 is formed on the first body 112 of the patch body 110, and detects the temperature of the first body 112 directly contacting the human body during treatment.

The controller 170 receives a detection signal from the detector 150 to control the laser patch 100. For example, the controller 170 may receive a contact detection signal from the contact detection sensor 152, turn ON (ON) the weak laser device 140 when the patch body 110 is in contact with a human body during therapy, and turn OFF (OFF) the weak laser device 140 when the patch body 110 is not in contact with a human body. The controller 160 receives a temperature detection signal from the temperature detection sensor 154, turns off the weak laser device 140 if the temperature of the chip main body 110 exceeds a preset temperature, and turns on the weak laser device 140 if the temperature of the chip main body 110 satisfies the preset temperature. Wherein, preferably, the preset temperature range may be an appropriate range for thermotherapy. For example, the preset temperature range is approximately 40 ℃ to 55 ℃. When the temperature of the patch body 110 is substantially less than 40 c at the time of treatment, the effect of thermotherapy is insignificant. In contrast, when the therapy is performed, the user may be burned in the case where the temperature of the patch body 110 is substantially greater than 55 ℃.

Next, the self-laser therapy method using the laser patch therapy group described above will be described in detail.

Fig. 5 is a flow chart illustrating a method of weak laser therapy according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to fig. 3 to 5, first, treatment condition setting and disclosure are performed (step S110). Specifically, the user operates the control button 118 of the laser patch 100 to set the output time, intensity adjustment, and on/off operation of the weak laser of the laser patch 100. Such treatment condition setting values may be different depending on the purpose of use such as pain relief, blood flow improvement, blood flow enhancement, skin regeneration, cell activation, fat decomposition, cell stimulation, and the like.

For example, when the use purpose is pain relief, the laser power adjustment button 118b is operated to set the power of the weak laser light to 40mW, and the timing button 118c is operated to set the power of the weak laser light to 30 minutes, and then the on/off button 118a is operated to turn on the light source under the above conditions. After the patch band 20 corresponding to the skin tissue of the subject is selected and the laser patch 100 is fixed, it can be attached to the treatment site.

If the laser patch 100 is attached to the treatment site, it is determined whether the laser patch 100 is normally in contact with the human body (step S120). Specifically, the controller 160 receives a contact detection signal from the contact detection sensor 152 of the detector 150 to determine whether or not one surface of the first body 112a of the laser patch 100 is normally in contact with the treatment site. At this time, if it is determined that the patch body 110 is normally in contact with the treatment site, the controller 160 controls the circuit board 120 to irradiate the weak laser beam of the weak laser device 140 with the self-power of the built-in battery 140 (step S130). On the contrary, when it is determined that the patch body 110 is not in abnormal contact with the treatment site, the controller 160 may wait for the weak laser irradiation of the weak laser device 14 (step S140).

That is, the weak laser beam of the weak laser device 140 is irradiated only when the laser patch 100 is normally in contact with the treatment site, and is kept on standby in an off state. Accordingly, the laser patch 100 irradiates weak laser light only when it is normally in contact with the treatment site, thereby preventing safety accidents such as irradiation of weak laser light to the eyes due to carelessness of the user.

Further, when the weak laser beam is irradiated, it is determined whether the temperature of the laser patch 100 satisfies a predetermined temperature range (step S150). Specifically, the controller 160 receives a temperature detection signal from the temperature detection sensor 154 of the detector 150 to determine whether the temperature of the chip body 112 of the laser chip 100 satisfies a predetermined temperature range. At this time, when the temperature of the chip main body 110 satisfies the preset temperature range, the controller 160 continues to irradiate the weak laser beam of the weak laser device 140 (step S160). On the contrary, when the temperature of the chip body 110 exceeds the preset temperature range, the controller 160 controls the circuit board 120 to interrupt the laser irradiation of the weak laser device 140 (step S170).

That is, as described above, the laser patch 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention uses the heat of the weak laser device 140 as the heat for the thermotherapy, and thus, if the temperature of the patch main body 110 is excessively increased, a problem such as burn may occur. Thus, the laser patch 100 can be irradiated with weak laser light only in a case where the temperature does not exceed a normal temperature range, thereby improving treatment stability.

In the course of performing the above laser treatment, it may be determined whether a preset time is reached (step S180). For example, in step S110, if the set time has not reached 30 minutes, the controller 160 returns to the previous step S120 again and repeats steps S120 to S170. On the contrary, when the time reaches 30 minutes set in the step S110, after the weak laser device 140 is turned off, an external display such as a reminder or turning off of the operation lamp 150 is performed so that the user can recognize the phenomenon.

As described above, the laser patch treatment group 10 according to the embodiment of the present invention includes the plurality of laser patches 100 for irradiating weak laser light, which have relatively small diameters and are in the shape of a thin plate, and the patch band 20 for fixing the laser patches 100 to a treatment site. In this case, the user selectively arranges pain parts, blood apertures (blood apertures), lymph glands (lymph glands), and the like in combination, thereby performing various self-therapies such as pain relief, blood flow improvement, blood flow enhancement, lymph node stimulation, edema relief, and skin stimulation. Thus, the laser patch of the present invention and the laser patch treatment group having the same are constituted by a relatively small plate-shaped laser patch in such a manner that treatment can be performed on a local position, and are used with a combined patch that conforms to the kind of treatment required by a user and the required local position.

Further, the laser patch and the laser patch treatment group having the same according to the embodiments of the present invention have no problems caused by adhesives or patches, such as skin problems due to rashes, allergies, burns, etc., and perform treatments such as relieving pain, improving blood flow, strengthening blood flow, skin regeneration, activating cells, decomposing fat, stimulating cells, etc., as compared to conventional patches or pain patches.

Further, the laser patch and the laser patch treatment set having the same of the present invention can realize self-treatment with the same effect without additional cost burden for a long time by a user, and can prevent waste of resources, thereby being environment-friendly, compared to conventional patches or pain patches.

Next, a laser patch according to the above-described modified example of the present invention will be described. In this case, the overlapping contents with the laser patch 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention described above may be omitted or simplified.

Fig. 6 is a diagram showing a laser patch according to a modification of the present invention. Referring to fig. 6, a laser patch 100a according to a variation of the present invention includes a patch body 110, a circuit board 120, a built-in battery 130, a weak laser device 140a, a detector 150, and a controller 160, wherein the weak laser device 140a may include a first device 142a and a second device 144a having different laser wavelengths. As an example, the first device 142a may include a weak laser device having a wavelength range of about 630nm to 680nm and a power intensity of about 80mW or less. Such first devices 142a are used to relieve pain, stimulate lymph nodes, relieve edema, activate cells, and the like. In contrast, the second device 144a described above may comprise a weak laser device having a wavelength range of approximately 780nm to 990nm, with a power intensity of approximately 80mW or less. Such second devices 142a may be used to improve blood flow, enhance blood flow, activate cells, and the like.

The number and arrangement of the first devices 142a and the second devices 144a may be various. The user operates the plurality of control buttons 118 to select and control the first device 142a and the second device 144 a. For example, in the case of using the laser patch 100a for pain relief, the user sets the plurality of control buttons 118 so that only the first device 142a is turned on, and then uses the laser patch. Alternatively, in the case where the laser patch 100a is used for the purpose of improving blood flow, the user sets the plurality of control buttons 118 so that only the second device 144a is turned on and then uses the laser patch. The first and second devices 142a, 144a are both activated and used by the user for the purpose of both pain relief and improved blood flow.

The laser patch 100a of the above-described structure is capable of irradiating laser light of two wavelength ranges through one laser patch 100a, and compared to the laser patch 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention, laser treatment of two wavelength ranges can be performed through a single laser patch 100 a.

The web client 60 may receive various treatment information, the use history of the laser patch 200, and data from the user terminal 40 and the web server 50.

Next, a laser patch according to another embodiment of the present invention is described in detail. The description overlapping with the laser patches 100, 100a, and 100b of the various embodiments described above is omitted or simplified.

Fig. 10 is a perspective view showing one side of a laser patch according to an embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 11 is a perspective view showing another side of the laser patch shown in fig. 10.

Referring to fig. 10 and 11, a laser patch 200 according to another embodiment of the present invention includes a patch body 210, a circuit board (not shown), a built-in battery (not shown), a laser device 240, a detector 250, and a controller (not shown), and the circuit board, the built-in battery, and the controller have the same or similar structures as the laser patches 100, 100a, and 100b described above.

The patch body 210 may have a first body 212a and a second body 212b assembled with each other to form a thin plate-shaped body 212. The first body 212a has one surface closely attached to a human body during treatment, and the second body 212b has the other surface exposed during treatment. The chip body 210 may include a charging unit 216 connected to the charger 30 to charge the built-in battery. The charging unit 216 may include a first charging lamp 216b and a second charging lamp 216c for identifying the charging terminal 216a, whether the charging is completed or not, or whether the battery remains.

The patch body 210 may include a laser control button 218 for setting a treatment condition of the laser patch 200. For example, the laser control buttons 218 may include: an open/close button 118a for opening and closing the weak laser device 240; a laser power adjustment button 218b for adjusting the laser power intensity of the weak laser device 240; and a timing button 218c for setting an operation time of the laser patch 200. The chip body 210 may further include a vibrator control button 219 for setting and operating a vibrator (not shown) formed inside the laser chip 200. For example, the vibrator control button 219 may include: an open/close button 219a for selecting an open/close or vibration mode of the vibrator; an increase button 219b for increasing the strength of the vibrator; and a reduction button 219c for reducing the strength of the vibrator. The user sets the plurality of control buttons 218 and 219 to set the treatment conditions of the laser patch 200.

The weak laser device 240 may include a first device 242 and a second device 244 having different laser wavelength values. As an example, the first device 242 may include a weak laser device having a wavelength range of about 630nm to 680nm with a power intensity of about 80mW or less. Such a first device 242 may be used to relieve pain, stimulate lymph nodes, relieve edema, activate cells, and the like. In contrast, the second device 244 described above may include a weak laser device having a wavelength range of about 780nm to 990nm, with a power intensity of about 80mW or less. Such a second device 242 may be used for purposes such as improving blood flow, enhancing blood flow, activating cells, etc.

The number and arrangement of the first device 242 and the second device 244 may be various. For example, at least one of the second devices 244 is disposed in a central region of one surface of the chip body 210, and the plurality of first devices 242 is disposed in a peripheral region of one surface of the chip body 210. In the weak laser device 240 having the above-described structure, the second device 244 is positioned in a blood vessel of the user to promote or improve blood flow in a specific blood vessel during treatment, and the remaining first devices 242 radiate weak laser light to a relatively wide area to relieve pain.

The detector 250 can be used for therapeutic safety and proper therapeutic control of the laser patch 200. For example, the detector 250 may include a contact detection sensor 252 and a temperature detection sensor 254. When the laser patch 100 is used, the contact detection sensor 252 detects whether one surface of the laser patch 100 is in contact with the skin of the user, and the temperature detection sensor 154 applies heat to the laser patch 100 by heat dissipation of the weak laser device 140, thereby preventing burn of the user during treatment.

The controller receives a detection signal from the detector 250 to control the laser patch 200. For example, the controller 270 receives a contact detection signal from the contact detection sensor 252, and turns on the weak laser device 240 when the patch body 210 is in contact with a human body during treatment, and turns off the weak laser device 240 when the patch body 210 is not in contact with a human body. The controller receives a detection signal from the temperature detection sensor 254, turns off the weak laser device 240 if the temperature of the chip body 210 exceeds a preset temperature, and turns on the weak laser device 240 if the temperature of the chip body 210 satisfies the preset temperature.

Next, a treatment process using the laser patch according to another embodiment of the present invention described above will be described. In which overlapping description with the laser patches of the various embodiments described above is omitted or simplified.

Fig. 12 is a flowchart illustrating a laser treatment method using a laser patch according to another embodiment of the present invention. Referring to fig. 8 to 12, first, user basic information is output by an application of the user terminal 40 (step S210). For example, the user downloads a relevant application through the user terminal 40 to input user basic matters, such as sex, age, weight, treatment of a desired disease, and the like.

After the user basic information is input, the user may select a desired treatment (step S220). Specifically, the user can input treatment items and positions to be treated through the above application program. For example, when a user inputs a pain treatment of a large classification or a pain treatment in improving blood flow, a treatment site of an arm, a leg, a neck, a waist, or the like as a middle classification item is presented, and when a shoulder is input, a right side and a left side, and a specific forehead pain site are presented. The user can find and input items suitable for the desired treatment through such detailed classification.

Treatment can be performed based on the information on the use of the laser patch containing appropriate treatment information data (step S230). Specifically, if the therapy required by the user is selected, the network server 50 transmits appropriate therapy information data among the information in the database basically stored to the user terminal 40. The user can sequentially attach the laser patches 200 to the parts to be treated according to the method or procedure of using the laser patches 200 presented through the user terminal 40.

In particular, the treatment information data sets a treatment order and a position of the laser patch according to a treatment guideline selected by information input in advance by the user, and the user sequentially positions the laser patch at the set position of the user in accordance with the set treatment order and position, thereby achieving at least one of the purposes of pain relief, blood flow improvement, cell activation, cell regeneration, lymph node stimulation, and edema relief. Thus, the user sequentially attaches the laser patches 200 at specific positions to perform a treatment through a chinese acupuncture or moxibustion treatment process. A person in general can simply perform a professional chinese medical treatment.

In the above treatment process, it is possible to judge whether or not the laser patch is used in accordance with the use information guided by the treating person (step S240). For example, when the user attaches the laser patch 200 to a human body, the controller (not shown) determines whether the user performs treatment in a treatment procedure conforming to guidance through the user terminal 40 based on whether the detector 250 is in contact with the laser patch or not. When the user performs treatment using the laser patch 200 in accordance with the guided treatment procedure, it is determined that the treatment is normally performed (step S260). Wherein the normal treatment may include the weak laser treatment described with reference to fig. 5. In contrast, in the case where the user does not use the laser patch 200 for treatment in the treatment steps conforming to the guidance, after guiding these to the user, the use information is guided again in such a manner that the appropriate treatment can be performed (step S250).

As described above, the laser patch 200 and the laser patch treatment group 12 having the same according to another embodiment of the present invention include: a plurality of laser patches 200 performing weak laser therapy; a user terminal 40 which communicates with the plurality of laser patches 200 and has an application program for guiding the use method and procedure of the plurality of laser patches 200; and a web server 50 connected to the user terminal 40, whereby a general user receives guidance for a desired treatment using the application program and can perform a chinese medical treatment using the laser patch 200 by himself/herself. Therefore, the laser patch and the laser patch treatment group having the same according to the embodiments of the present invention are connected to a user terminal carrying an application program for informing a user of the laser patch of acupuncture or moxibustion therapy as accurate chinese medical treatment, so that a general user who does not have or lacks knowledge of the chinese medical treatment can simply and accurately perform the chinese medical treatment, and the laser patch treatment group having the same are provided.

The embodiments of the laser patch of the present invention and the laser patch treatment group having the same have been described so far, and various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of the present invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiments, but is defined by the claims to be described later and the equivalents thereof. The above-described embodiments are illustrative in all respects and should not be construed as limiting, the scope of the present invention is defined by the claims to be described later, not by the detailed description, and the meaning and scope of the claims and all modifications and variations derived from the equivalent concept are included in the scope of the present invention.
