Publication number: 20220265506Abstract: A device for treating a user includes a housing having apertures. The housing has application areas including a convex top surface, a concave bottom surface, a convex rear surface, convex side surfaces and rounded protrusions extending away from the housing. A vibrational source is located in the housing to produce vibration at the application areas. A switch is in operative communication with the vibrational source to control operation of the vibrational source.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 12, 2022Publication date: August 25, 2022Applicant: MMJ LABS, LLCInventors: Amy Baxter, Robert E. Ratajczak, III, Brian VanHiel, Maureen E. Carroll
