massage device

Abstract

The massage device “Niteisho” for massage purposes is characterized in that it has a palm-sized receiving area (1) for a stimulator attachment (2), which in the palm area consists of a frustoconical stabilizing element (3) and a pressure plate (4), and is attached to the hand with a fastening system consisting of Velcro fasteners (6) or with rubber bands with guide holes (7) to fixing straps (5).

Description

[0001] The Niteisho massage device is worn on the hand and supports physiotherapeutic treatments such as acupressure and massage.

[0002] The device features a spherical or elliptical conical shape in the palm area. This shape serves to specifically stimulate and activate the muscles and fascia.

[0003] The device is made of silicone / rubber or rigid foam. It is attached to the hand with three straps. The straps are secured to each other on the back of the hand using Velcro fasteners or elastic cords.

[0004] The palm rest area has a larger cross-section than the fastening straps to cushion the palm. A plastic plate is located within the palm rest area to ensure even pressure distribution across the palm.

[0005] On the outside of the device is a stimulator attachment (activation spike) in the shape of a truncated cone or cylinder with a spherical end.

[0006] The transition from the activation pin to the palm rest is achieved using a truncated cone angle bracket. This directs any horizontal forces generated by the activation pin directly into the pressure plate, and thus into the palm rest.

[0007] An embodiment of the invention is described with reference to the Fig. 1-6 explained.
