  • the objective sought by the invention lies in the simple and efficient performance of massage operations, both on human beings and on animals.
  • Different massage techniques are known, generally depending on the treatments to be carried out. In general, they aim to exert on the patient stresses involving phenomena of pressure and / or displacement and / or pinching, in particular of the skin tissue.
  • the massage devices in question use a treatment head connected to a suction circuit, said treatment head being constituted by a housing defining an internal chamber inside which the suction circuit opens. .
  • a skin fold is formed inside the internal chamber, a skin fold which rests against the peripheral edge of said internal chamber.
  • the mechanical action for its part, can be exerted by rollers or balls which make it possible to exert concomitantly with the suction on the patient's body, an action of pressure and / or displacement and / or friction, especially by vibration.
  • Such devices include a manually operable casing, inside which are mounted two parallel rollers, mounted free to rotate or positively driven in rotation inside the casing.
  • These rollers can be mounted on the casing with a fixed center distance, or on the contrary are capable of being able to move apart and automatically approach one another during the massaging operation, said casing itself being connected to suction means making it possible to create a vacuum between said rollers when the head provided with these different elements is applied against the patient's body, so as to form a skin fold resting against the surface of the rollers.
  • This device can be improved by the implementation of a solenoid valve at the level of the suction circuit, which makes it possible to obtain "all or nothing" operation, but which also makes it possible to define a controlled flow rate of the air flow. between two determined values with a possibility of adjustment between said values.
  • Such a solenoid valve mounted on the suction circuit therefore makes it possible to obtain a sequential operation of pulsation, of a rhythm such that during the massage operation, the suction rate varies cyclically, thus causing a vibration, variation of the suction force and skin grip, thus improving the effectiveness of the treatment and also facilitating its implementation.
