ABSTRACT:
A hand held massaging device comprised of a first and second handle, a cord perminantly fixed to the first handle and slidably fixed to the second handle. A resilient rubber ball having a hole axially through the center allowing the ball to be mounted on the cord between the two handles. Each handle and the ball have ball bearings where the cord passes through so that the ball can roll easily over the body part being massaged. A pair of snug fitting O rings hold the ball in place but the ball can be moved by rolling the O rings to a new position along the cord. A retaining ring assembly located on the cord just outside the slidable handle acts to retain the slidable handle in the desired position along the cord. In this way a user can space the handles and ball to the ideal location and can hold onto the handles and roll the massage ball over the desired body part in an easy way. The user can increase the effect of the massage ball by leaning his or her body weight against the ball and sandwiching the ball between the body part being massaged and a fixed surface such as a chair back, wall or floor. The hand held massage device of the present invention can also be used as a streaching type exercise device and can also be used as a jump rope.
