Description

The invention relates to sports equipment and can be used at home for massage of the fingers, neck, back and whole body.

A device for self-massage (RF patent No. 58913) is known, comprising a body of non-magnetic material and a massage element in the form of a permanent magnet partially located in it.

However, this device does not allow you to freely manipulate your hands, it is inconvenient and cumbersome. In addition, during massage, the threads between the body and the massage element can clog the patient’s threads, hairs, debris or any foreign body that will stop the free rotation of the permanent magnet, which will worsen the massage process itself.

These shortcomings will disappear in the proposed device if the body is made in the form of a cylinder of non-magnetic material with convex bases, inside which is a freely moving massage element. In addition, it allows you to confidently and calmly massage with a magnetic field those parts of the body that you want and want to, simply and calmly. The implementation of the body in the form of a cylinder with convex bases makes it possible to massage the neck, thighs with two hands, chest, back, lying, soles of the feet while standing or sitting.

The installation of the protrusions on the body of the installation increases the massage effect due to increased blood flow.

The manufacture of the housing from an elastic material increases the usability of the device, as such a device gently rolls over the body, without causing pain and without scratches. The elastic body can take on the contact line the shape of the skin of a person, which greatly increases the massage effect.

The technical result of the invention is to increase the effectiveness of massage.

Figure 1 shows the device; figure 2 is a device in section; figure 3 - massaging the back lying; figure 4 - massage of the chest and abdomen.

The device for self-massage contains a housing 1 of non-magnetic material in the form of a cylinder with convex bases 4, inside of which there is a massage element 2 of a permanent magnet. On the outside of the casing, projections 3 are mounted, and the casing itself can be made of an elastic material.

The device operates as follows. They take the device into their hands and roll it on their fingers or pendulum with shock-and-forward movement, and also roll it on their backs, hips or give the second person the opportunity to do the same operations. At the same time, the magnetic field of a permanent magnet acts on the patient’s body, and the body, mechanically pressing, increases blood flow, improving the patient’s well-being. In addition, when massaging fingers, the shock-translational movement of a permanent magnet inside a non-magnetic body improves peripheral blood vessels and nerves.
