Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0650716A1] There is described a massage device for rolling massage of skin and reflex zones of the human body, in which massage rings or rolling bodies 106 mounted so as to be freely rotatable are seated on at least one shaft seated on a handle. These massage rings or rolling bodies each carry prong-, tooth- or needle-like projections 108 which are uniformly distributed in the circumferential direction. In order to increase considerably the number of stimulation sites on the skin and reflex zones without impairing the handiness of the massage roller it is proposed - that each massage ring or rolling body 106 be provided with a double or multiple row 110/112 of projections 108, - that the rows 110/112 of projections 108 have a predetermined or fixed lateral spacing 114 relative to one another, and - that the projections 108 in the adjacent rows 110/112 be arranged so as to be offset relative to one another with a gap 116 in the circumferential direction. <IMAGE>
