ABSTRACT:
A foot sole massager includes a machine base supported on the ground by stands. A center opening is provided in the base, and two handrails extend upward at two opposite sides. Two lines of different massaging rods are arranged within the center opening. A first massaging rod includes plurality of raised portions, and a second massaging rod includes a plurality of tubular portions arranged in parallel. Each tubular portion includes a through hole, so that the second massaging rod is elastically deformable. A slide plate is disposed in contact with the massaging rods, and a motor is controlled to reciprocate the slide plate through an eccentric wheel and a link, causing the slide plate to turn the massaging rods to massage the user's soles. An adjusting mechanism is provided to change the turning angle of the massaging elements.
