Abstract
A foot therapy device is provided. The foot therapy device includes a housing having a side wall, and a floor defining a reservoir for receiving a fluid. The foot therapy device has at least one water jet disposed in the reservoir and a pump for pumping the fluid in the reservoir to the water jet. The water jet circulates the fluid disposed in the reservoir. The fluid circulates in a predetermined fluid flow pattern in the reservoir. The predetermined flow pattern of the fluid may include a substantially circular, elliptical or vortex motion for a relaxing and pleasant massage therapy.
Claims22
A foot bath comprising:
- a housing having a side wall and a floor defining a reservoir for receiving a fluid;
- at least two water jets being disposed in said reservoir;
- and
- a pump for pumping the fluid in said reservoir to said at least two water jets, for circulating the fluid disposed in said reservoir, wherein the fluid circulates in a predetermined fluid flow pattern in said reservoir, wherein said predetermined flow pattern is a net motion of the fluid around substantially an inner periphery of said reservoir.
A foot bath comprising:
- a housing having a side wall and a floor defining a reservoir for receiving a fluid, said floor having a drain, said fluid being received in said reservoir having an initial top surface level;
- at least two water jets being disposed in said reservoir;
- and
- a pump for pumping the fluid in said reservoir to said at least two water jets, said at least two water jets for circulating the fluid disposed in said reservoir, wherein the fluid circulates in a predetermined spiral fluid flow pattern in said reservoir, wherein said predetermined spiral flow pattern is a net motion of the fluid around an inner periphery of said reservoir, said drain being substantially in a centermost portion of said reservoir, said predetermined fluid flow forming a whirlpool around said drain, said whirlpool flowing out of said drain and being in communication with said at least two water jets.
