ABSTRACT:
A back massaging device includes a base having a clamp for securement to a bed frame rail. A vertical column is mounted for reciprocal axial and rotational movement on the base. A transverse arm is pivotally mounted at an upper end of the vertical column and includes an actuating rod mounted for reciprocal parallel linear movement therewith. A massaging implement is pivotally secured on a distal end of the actuating rod. A programmable control simultaneously controls movement of the vertical column, the transverse arm and the actuating rod to move the massaging implement over a preprogrammed contour of an individual's back. The programmable control may include a remotely operable joystick to allow control of the back massaging device by a reclining individual during a back massaging operation. The massaging implement may include a remotely actuatable lotion dispenser.
