ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus are disclosed for massaging and otherwise treating the hands, more specifically the nails and cuticles. A uniquely contoured hollow handrest of shell-like configuration which comfortably supports either hand with the fingers in outstretched, separate positions, is centered in a shallow container of treating oil. The inner periphery of the container includes a semi-annular barrier of oil-soaked sponge against which the fingernails and cuticles rest, and means for heating the oil above room temperature. The handrest is constructed to include a vibrator adjacent to its inner surface. Thus, the fingers and nails of a hand under treatment may be simultaneously soaked in hot oil and massaged with vibrations.
