ABSTRACT:
A head and facial massaging apparatus includes a support base constructed and arranged to contact a supporting surface. A headrest structure is operatively associated with the support base. The headrest structure includes a mounting structure and a headrest. The headrest is constructed and arranged to receive and support a rear portion of a user's head. A back shell structure is carried by the mounting structure and has an upper surface and an opposing lower surface. The upper surface includes an expandable bladder structure constructed and arranged to contact a rear portion of a user's head not being supported by the headrest. A source of fluid is provided to control expansion of the bladder structure. A front shell structure is provided having a plurality of resilient fingers extending from a surface thereof. The fingers are constructed and arranged to contact certain facial tissues of the user. Connecting structure secures the front shell structure to the back shell structure to accommodate a user's head therebetween such that the front shell structure is free to move with respect to the user's face. When the front shell structure is secured to the back shell structure with the user's head therebetween, movement of the bladder structure 1) massages the rear portion of the user's head, and 2) causes the user's head to move with respect to the fingers such that the fingers massage the certain facial tissues while the user's head remains in contact with the headrest.
