Abstract:
1. A temple massaging device for providing relaxation and headache relief, said temple massaging device comprising: a massaging head assembly comprising: a support strap spaced from said headband portions and including a fastener for maintaining said support strap removably attached to a selected portion of a user body; a controller assembly; and, an electrical cord electrically connected to said controller assembly and to said massaging head assembly respectively; wherein said controller assembly generates and transmits a regulated electrical current to said massaging units via said electrical cord based upon a user input; wherein said controller assembly is located external of said massaging units; wherein said massaging head assembly comprises an adjustment mechanism provided with a knob directly attached thereto; a plurality of hook portions medially formed along respective longitudinal lengths of said headband portions respectively; and, a pair of termination ends formed at proximal ends of said headband portions respectively; wherein said knob is selectively adaptable along clockwise and counter clockwise directions and thereby engages and disengages said termination ends such that said headband portions are statically adapted to alternate positions about the user head; wherein said cord forms a “Y”-shaped wiring configuration connected directly to a respective one of said headband portions for providing a separate electrical output signal to said massaging units respectively; wherein said adjustment mechanism is intermediately spaced between said “Y”-shaped wiring configuration such that distal most ends of said “Y”-shaped wiring configuration remain spaced from said adjustment mechanism as said headband portions are laterally adjusted relative to said adjustment mechanism; wherein each said hook portion is adapted to be positioned about a user ear, wherein each said headband portion further has a curvilinear region contiguously extending forward from said hook portions, wherein each said hook portions further has a crest located at a top of the user ear and each said curvilinear region has a trough located subjacent to the user ear; wherein said termination ends are disposed at a forward-most portion of said curvilinear regions respectively; and, wherein said massaging units are directly connected to said termination ends of said headband portions respectively.
