A heated massage therapy device has a hand-held housing, a mechanical vibration generator disposed within the housing, the mechanical vibration being transmitted to at least a heat-conductive, preferably infrared transparent portion thereof, and at least one source of infrared radiation disposed within the housing, the infrared radiation being applied to at least the heat-conductive portion of the housing. A number of first fresnel lenses formed in the heat conductive portion of the housing concentrate infrared radiation such that it may more efficiently be applied to the user. Second fresnel lenses may be formed about all of the individual infrared radiation sources as a group to further concentrate the infrared radiation applied to the user. Each of the infrared radiation sources may be substantially surrounded by a thermal conduction member which absorbs the infrared radiation radiated therefrom and conducts the heat generated thereby to the heat-conductive portion of said housing.
