ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for applying rolling massaging pressure to opposite sides of a bodily extremity. Two parallel tension rods extend through two spaced shafts having massaging rollers rotatably mounted on the shafts between the tension rods. One shaft is fixed in use to the tension rods and compression springs on ends of the tension rods beyond the second shaft bias the shaft mounted rollers toward each other. At least one shaft has extended ends to act as handles for manipulating the apparatus. The initial distance between the rollers can be adjusted before use. A latch is provided to hold the rollers well apart during insertion of a bodily extremity between the rollers, then release to allow the compression spring loaded pressure to be applied.
