ABSTRACT:
An acupressure apparatus for applying vibrational pressure evenly to a plurality of preselected points on a shaded portion of a living body such as upon the face thereof includes a housing and a flexible membrane secured to the housing to form an enclosed chamber between the housing and the flexible membrane for containing therein a liquid. A plurality of protrusions are carried on the flexible membrane and, when the housing is placed adjacent to the shaped portion of the living body, the plurality of protrusions contact preselected acupuncture points. The fluid is excited by vibrational energy such that this energy is transferred to the plurality of protrusions evenly so that the protrusions exert vibrational pressure on the preselected acupressure points. The fluid can be heated if desired.
