ABSTRACT:
A support apparatus in the nature of a mattress comprises means defining an array of pressure points for the application of pressure to parts of a human body resting on the support member. The means defining the array of pressure points are connected together to form a layer which is covered by a cover. The pressure points are preferably defined by bead members and the support apparatus is advatangeously flexible. Additionally, a cushioning layer may be added beneath said layer to provide a restoring force delivering a somewhat gentler massaging effect at the pressure points.
