ABSTRACT:
A massager for massaging the body is disclosed having a disk with a plurality of shafts around a central central shaft. Each of the shafts have a resilient member on it for engaging the body of a person. These shafts are driven so that the outside shafts all rotate in a first direction and the center shaft rotates in the opposite direction. They are driven so that they rotate first in one direction a part of a turn and then they rotate in the other direction a part of a turn. The drive may be a central gear fixed to the center shaft and a small gear fixed to each of the small shafts and making meshing engagement with the large gear so that when the large shaft is rotated in one direction the central member rotates with it and the other members all rotate in the opposite direction. The drive shown is a disk supported on the shaft with a radial slot and the radial slot is engaged by the crank of a motor so that when the motor rotates the shaft having the center member on it oscillates first in one direction and then in the other.
