Abstract
The present invention relates to an improved wash-cloth having a plurality of pockets for the simultaneous insertion of soap and/or massaging utensils and other medicating items. The pockets can be secured so that any items inserted in the pockets will not be dislocated during use. In addition, the wash-cloth of this invention has gripping handles intergrally knit to the opposing ends of the main body. These handles are held so that wash-cloth can be safely and easily used, particularly by handicapped persons, to effectively clean and massage the back and other difficult to reach areas. One type of massaging utensil is shown and has two apertured balls, which are held together by knotting a length of material that passes through an apertured rod inserted through the aperture of the massaging balls.
