The invention relates to a reflex zone massage stimulator, particularly for the hand or the foot, comprising a rotatable rod-like element provided with projections, the ends of which define an active surface to be brought into contact with the skin of the user, the active surface being curved such that, viewed in the longitudinal direction of the rod-like element, the distance from said surface to the rotation axis of the element varies. A plurality of projections is farmed as electrode projection for electro-neuro stimulator pulses and is preferably connected with an electrode strip or is formed as one part with said electrode strip. For an effective stimulation of the reflex zones of the foot, the active surface of the relex zone massage stimulator may comprise at least one substantially convex portion and/or at least one substantially concave portion. The reflex zone massage stimulator may further be provided with at least one projection-less portion having a diameter which is larger than the largest diameter of the active surface.
A reflex zone massage stimulator, particularly for the hand or the foot, comprising a rotatable rod-like element comprising projections, an envelope formed by the ends of said projections defining an active surface to be brought into contact with skin of a user, and said active surface being curved such that, viewed in a longitudinal direction of said rod-like element, a distance from said active surface to a rotation axis of said rod-like element varies, and comprising a plurality of portions for stimulating a different body part, wherein said projections are rodlets and are made from a plastic having a Shore hardness of about 50 to 90 and said active surface comprises two substantially convex portions for stimulating a first body part, both ends of said convex portions being adjacent to rounded portions which are oriented for stimulating a side of said first body part, and said convex portions being intervened by a substantially concave portion for stimulating a second, smaller body part.
A reflex zone massage stimulator, particularly for the hand or the foot, comprising a rotatable rod-like element comprising projections, an envelope formed by the ends of said projections defining an active surface to be brought into contact with skin of a user, and said active surface being curved such that, viewed in a longitudinal direction of said rod-like element, a distance from said active surface to a rotation axis of said rod-like element varies, and comprising a plurality of portions for stimulating a different body part, wherein said projections are rodlets and said active surface comprises two substantially convex portions for stimulating a first body part, both ends of said convex portions being adjacent to rounded portions which are oriented for stimulating a side of said first body part, and said convex portions being intervened by a substantially concave portion for stimulating a second, smaller body part, wherein a plurality of said rodlets are formed as electrode rodlets connected to a pulse-generating device to convey electro-neuro stimulator pulses via the skin to reflex zones of the user, and wherein a plurality of rows of said electrode rodlets are provided in the longitudinal direction of and around said rod-like element, alternating with rows of non-electrode rodlets provided in said longitudinal direction of said rod-like element.
A reflex zone massage stimulator, particularly for the hand or the foot, comprising a rotatable rod-like element comprising projections, an envelope formed by the ends of said projections defining an active surface to be brought into contact with skin of a user, and said active surface being curved such that, viewed in a longitudinal direction of said rod-like element, a distance from said active surface to a rotation axis of said rod-like element varies, and comprising a plurality of portions for stimulating a different body part, wherein said projections are rodlets and said active surface comprises two substantially convex portions for stimulating a first body part, both ends of said convex portions being adjacent to rounded portions which are oriented for stimulating a side of said first body part, and said convex portions being intervened by a substantially concave portion for stimulating a second, smaller body part, wherein the massage stimulator comprises one or more projection-less portions having a diameter which is larger than a largest diameter of said active surface, and wherein said projection-less portions are provided with a surrounding elastic element.
A reflex zone massage stimulator, particularly for the hand or the foot, comprising a rotatable rod-like element comprising projections, an envelope formed by the ends of said projections defining an active surface to be brought into contact with skin of a user, and said active surface being curved such that, viewed in a longitudinal direction of said rod-like element, a distance from said active surface to a rotation axis of said rod-like element varies, and comprising a plurality of portions for stimulating a different body part, wherein said projections are rodlets and said active surface comprises two substantially convex portions for stimulating a first body part, both ends of said convex portions being adjacent to rounded portions which are oriented for stimulating a side of said first body part, and said convex portions being intervened by a substantially concave portion for stimulating a second, smaller body part, and wherein said rodlets project about 4 mm from a surface of said rod-like element.
A reflex zone massage stimulator, particularly for the hand or the foot, comprising a rotatable rod-like element comprising projections, an envelope formed by the ends of said projections defining an active surface to be brought into contact with skin of a user, and said active surface being curved such that, viewed in a longitudinal direction of said rod-like element, a distance from said active surface to a rotation axis of said rod-like element varies, and comprising a plurality of portions for stimulating a different body part, wherein said projections are rodlets and said active surface comprises two substantially convex portions for stimulating a first body part, both ends of said convex portions being adjacent to rounded portions which are oriented for stimulating a side of said first body part, and said convex portions being intervened by a substantially concave portion for stimulating a second, smaller body part, and wherein a diameter of said rodlets is about 3.2 mm.
