ABSTRACT:
A hoop shaped massage apparatus and method is provided, and more particularly a versatile massage apparatus with a hoop shaped handle and a universal bracket for receiving a conventional massage unit. The hand held hoop is preferably attached to a conventional "off the shelf" commercially available vibrator. The hoop is adjustably sized to encircle a person's torso, trunk, shoulders or any other portion of the body. The vibrator is removably attached to the hoop by a bracket that includes a hook and loop fastener strap and tabs to hold the massage unit in place. Additionally, the bracket mounts upon the hoop. The hoop is positioned around a selected body area of a user to conveniently and comfortably apply pressure to the massaged portion of the user's body. The hoop acts as guides and leverage arms, aiding the user in applying massage pressure to the massaged area of the body. The massage unit can be a vibrating massage unit of conventional design, or can be a non-vibrating massage device, or a heat massage device.
