ABSTRACT:
A massaging garment worn in close proximity to a wearer's skin is made from a stretchable fabric having a plurality of fibers. Pushing elements for pushing the wearer's skin away from the stretchable fabric and pulling elements for pulling the wearer's skin toward the stretchable fabric are secured thereto. The pushing and pulling elements produce a massaging effect on the wearer's skin.
