Claim 27:
28. A tool for tonifying superficial muscles of a face and/or neck, extending respectively in a longitudinal direction corresponding to a lengthwise dimension of the tool, a transverse direction corresponding to a widthwise dimension of the tool, and vertical thickness direction of the tool, comprising:
a container comprising several single housings;
a series of weights, each singly contained inside a respective housing of the container,
wherein at least one external surface of each housing containing the weights has a positioning element made of a material suitable for ensuring stable positioning of the tool when rested on a specific area of the face and/or neck of a user lying with a body of the user in a supine position;
wherein said container is made of a plastic or rubbery material and said positioning element is formed by the plastic or rubbery material of the external surface of the container with a coefficient of friction such as to ensure a sufficient grip on the specific area of the face and/or neck of the user on which it rests;
wherein the tool does not include any retaining means which fasten the tool to the user such that it can be worn, whereby the tool acts by making use solely of a gripping action of the positioning element on the specific area and a force of gravity, when the tool is placed on the specific area of the face or neck of the user lying in the supine position, and
further comprising a hinge with a longitudinal axis designed to join in the transverse direction a longitudinal side of a housing of the container together with an opposite longitudinal side of an adjacent housing in the transverse direction, so as to allow a degree of freedom for relative rotation of the adjacent housings about the longitudinal axis.
