Abstract: A hand-held massager includes an elongated handle, a contoured first massaging member or massaging head resiliently coupled to the handle, and at least one other massaging member or node mounted on the massaging head for providing an intense localized massage. The hand-held massager further includes a plurality of vibration inducing elements. A first vibration inducing element includes a main motor housed substantially within the handle is linked to a drive shaft extending from the motor into the massaging head. A massaging head eccentric cam is connected to the drive shaft within the massaging head for generally vibrating the massaging head and node relative to the handle upon rotation of the drive shaft. A second vibration inducing element includes a second motor or submotor linked to an output shaft. A second eccentric cam located substantially within the node extends from the output shaft for primarily vibrating the node upon rotation of the drive shaft.

Abstract: A resilient covering panel is adapted to be placed upon the back of a user's hand. The forward portion of the covering member is divided into a pair of extensions, one being adapted to be placed adjacent the top of the user's middle finger, the second being adapted to be placed adjacent the top of the user's thumb. The rearward portion of the covering panel is integral with straps to be secured about the user's wrist. First and second direct current, vibrating motors are mounted within respective motor housings and are disposed through and coupled to the middle finger and thumb extensions. Securing members are affixed to the lower surfaces of each of the motor housings into which the user's middle finger and thumb may be inserted to secure the extensions in place. A pair of vibration controllers are mounted within a controller enclosure adjacent the base of the user's fingers.
