Abstract:
A harmonic vibration massage device, comprising:a. a transmitting plate having an upper side, a bottom side and a plurality of spaced apart protruding fingertips integrally formed with the upper side of the transmitting plate; b. at least two vibration generators mounted on said bottom side of said transmitting plate and located at two distinct areas for generating two distinct vibrations at the two distinct areas, where the two distinct vibrations are combined together to produce harmonic vibrations such that the harmonic vibrations are transmitted to and through said transmitting plate which in turn is transmitted to and through said plurality of protruding fingertips for providing a harmonic massage effect to a body part positioned on said harmonic vibration massage device; c. a fluid filled bladder having an upper surface and a lower surface, the upper surface positioned against said bottom side of said transmitting plate and located between said at least two vibration generators; and d. means for supplying fluid under pressure to expand said fluid filled bladder to a desired stiffness which in turn forces said plurality of protruding fingertips upwardly against the body part, thereby creating increased pressure against the body part positioned on said plurality of protruding fingertips of said transmitting plate.
