ABSTRACT:
An improved pedal assembly is provided. The pedal assembly comprises a housing which can be readily attached to the supporting member of a stepping machine. A sliding plate is slidably received and moved reciprocally within a recess formed in the housing. The sliding plate is provided with a plurality of projecting rails. A pedal is disposed above the recess having a plurality of massaging members disposed in through opening formed in the pedal. A pair of covers are disposed above the pedal and can be pivotally displaced to expose the massaging members. An actuating means is interconnected to the sliding plate to reciprocally move the sliding plate as the pedal is displaced to simultaneously displace the massaging members to massage the soles of the user's feet.
