Abstract: An oscillating bed includes a stand or base with spaced apart, head and foot upright members. A body supporting member generally defines the length and width of the bed and has a foot end and a head end defining a longitudinal axis and longitudinally extending rims along opposed sides with a curved surface extending lateral to the longitudinal axis between the foot end and the head end. The head upright member is pivotally attached to the head end and the foot upright member is pivotally attached to the foot end and supports the body supporting member relative to the stand for oscillatory movement. A rotary motor and drive apparatus are coupled to the body supporting member and convert rotary motion of the motor to oscillatory movement of the body supporting member about the longitudinal axis.
