Claim:
1. A portable deep vein leg massager and propulsor apparatus coupled to a harness adapted to be attached to a human leg, for pressure application along only a segment of a leg circumference, the portable deep vein leg massager and propulsor apparatus comprising: a base holder plate housing an inner cartridge fitted for supporting independent compression-decompression mechanical assemblies in segmented stages, the base holder plate coupled to harness straps and adapted to be positioned by the harness to the leg calf opposite the shin bone; two or more independent mechanical assembly stages, each stage comprising a mechanical mechanism for applying a compressing-decompressing force to a calf conforming surface area, said stages comprising calf surface area plate-like segments pushed and pulled by each mechanical mechanism supported by an inner cartridge plate; wherein the harness straps comprise at least two harness straps coupling a plate-like component adapted to be positioned on a shin bone and adapted to straddle the tibia opposite the base holder plate adapted to be attached to a calf; at least one battery affixed to the plate-like component for powering the mechanical mechanism to compress and decompress the calf surface area plate-like segments; a variable settable timer switch electrically coupled to battery power for energizing and de-energizing the mechanical mechanism compressing and decompressing the mechanical assembly stages, and electrical controls for compressing and decompressing the mechanical assembly stages for cycling up and down the leg calf in concert to compel deep vein blood toward the heart, whereby compression-decompression of a calf surface area plate-like segment adapted to be performed on a local non-circumferential region of the calf is controlled in synchronized concert with an adjacent calf surface area plate-like segment by energizing and de-energizing power to the mechanical mechanism serially to provide leg deep vein massaged through a minimum of portable energy supplied for propulsing deep vein blood flow and massaging.
