Description

  The present invention relates to a massager that relieves stiffness of the back of a human body by pressing a point near the shoulder, neck, and scapula.

  There are very many people who feel stiff shoulders. For example, according to the 2004 National Life Basic Survey by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, those who complain of stiff shoulders in the “Top 5 symptoms of the accused rate by sex and age group” The number of males is the second highest for males and the highest for females at all ages.

  Stiff shoulders keep the same posture for a certain period of time, and the trapezius muscles that support the head and arms and the surrounding muscles are continuously tensioned. It is said that it deteriorates, and oxygen and nutrients do not reach the end, and it is caused by accumulation of fatigue substances.

  As a means for relieving the stiff shoulders, a technique such as a technique that directly acupressures the affected area by an expert such as Anma massage acupressure is considered. However, when a specialist performs a surgical procedure, it is difficult to perform only the affected part having a subjective symptom for a long time due to physical strength on the side of the treatment, a treatment technique, and time constraints. In addition, when the patient has a strong subjective symptom, there are many cases where the patient cannot use it for his or her convenience, and the cost increases.

  In fact, according to the 2004 National Life Basic Survey mentioned above, even the stiff shoulders that occupy the top in the statistics of “the top 5 symptoms of the accused by sex / age class” were “by gender / age class” According to the statistics of “Top 5 Injuries / Diseases of Outpatients”, they are not ranked in men and ranked 4th in women. It can be said that there are few people who choose.

  In response to this situation, many devices have been proposed in the past for easily relieving stiff shoulders. For example, there are two or more round and small protrusions for shiatsu on a solid pillow, and the head is placed on the pillow so that the protrusion is applied to the affected area to obtain an acupressure effect ( Patent Document 1).

  Also, an upper edge surface of the plate body is provided with a concave curved body having a plate body installed upright on the substrate and a plurality of protrusions distributed in the longitudinal direction of the curved surface formed on the upper edge surface of the plate body. There has been proposed a pressing device formed in (see Patent Document 2). Such a press is used when taking a bath so that the neck is placed from the head to the curved part and the acupuncture present in the back of the neck is effectively acupressure using the weight of the head. It is a thing.

  Furthermore, of the two pairs of spherical protrusions whose tips are substantially spherical, a pressure treatment device in which one pair is low and the other pair is high to provide a step in each, and the spherical protrusions are arranged in a symmetrical C-shape. It has been proposed (see Patent Document 3). This projection has an appropriate cushioning property by incorporating a spring, and the user mounts the neck to obtain a soft pressure feeling on the affected area and obtain a shiatsu effect.

Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 2-102240 Noto 3045637 Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 63-135635 JP 2008-43709 A

  By the way, in the above-mentioned conventional simple massager, the protrusions are located in the shoulder and the base of the neck, more specifically in the shoulder corresponding to the outer two dimensions between the seventh cervical vertebra and the first thoracic spine. It is provided so as to abut on the position of the ridge (see FIG. 7). This is a so-called special effect point for stiff shoulders, and the pressure is applied in the direction of the center of the human body in the vicinity of the center of the shoulder. And this acupuncture point of a shoulder can expect an effect by giving a strong press to a deep part.

  However, with the conventional massage device, it can be said that it stimulates the area around the mid-shoulder, but in reality, strong acupressure is applied to the shoulder and the base of the neck. It was not a structure or shape to be added. That is, in Patent Document 1, a soft material is basically assumed as the protrusion, and even if it is a large protrusion, the whole is nearly spherical and has a size that reaches the deep part of the human body. Absent. Also in Patent Document 2, the height of the protrusion is assumed to be about 1 cm, and in Patent Document 3, the protrusion is a movable type with a spring in the vertical direction. Even if the length was set long, it was not a structure or shape that could apply strong acupressure to the deep part of the base of the shoulder and neck by the protrusion.

  In such a conventional technique, in many cases, the user of the massager tries to apply a projection to the acupuncture point, takes an unreasonable posture, and forcibly applies a strong pressure to the base of the shoulder and neck. And, since the user takes such an unreasonable posture, it is difficult for the user to continuously apply the acupressure for a certain period of time, and the unreasonable posture places a burden on other parts of the body. There were many things.

  In addition, since the structure and shape that can withstand strong pressing are not inherently used, there may be a problem with the component. Furthermore, when a pressing force was applied to the deep part of the base of the shoulder and neck, the main body was easily displaced in the direction of the head.

  Therefore, the present applicant has developed a massage device capable of applying a strong pressing force to the acupuncture points existing from the neck to the shoulder and the scapula, and has filed an application as Patent Document 4. In this invention, paying attention to the fact that the scapula cannot be applied to the acupuncture point due to obstruction, the scapula is positioned away from the spinal column by using it in a lateral position, and the pressure is applied to the acupuncture point. It was set as the structure added. However, since the user is forced to be in a lateral position and the posture in which the scapula is separated from the spine cannot be appropriately controlled depending on the method of use, the effect varies depending on the user.

  The present invention has been proposed in order to solve the above-described problems of the prior art. The purpose of the present invention is to provide acupoints deep in the base of the shoulder and neck by simply taking the supine position by the user. The object of the present invention is to provide a massager having a structure and shape capable of applying strong acupressure.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides:
A pillow that supports the user's head;
A main body that is provided in a substantially T shape with respect to the pillow and supports the user's spine without supporting the shoulder joint and arm of the user;
From the main body, a pair of protrusions projecting upward at intervals avoiding spinous processes provided on the spinal column of the human body, and pressing acupoints from the user's cervical spine to the shoulder,
In the state where the user puts his head on the pillow and presses the acupuncture point at the tip of the protrusion, the user's cervical vertebra is at a height where the user's cervical vertebra does not warp to the position where the jaw is warped, And the front-end | tip protrudes above the upper surface of a pillow diagonally toward the other side of a pillow, It is characterized by the above-mentioned.

  In the above-described aspect, the user's spine portion is lifted from the floor by the user's back portion riding on the raised body, while the shoulder blade is not supported from the shoulder blade to the shoulder joint, but in the floor direction. It will fall. Thereby, the user enters a state in which the rib cage is opened. In this state, the protrusion comes into contact with the acupoint of the human body on the back, so that the tip of the protrusion can apply strong acupressure to the deep part of the shoulder and the base of the neck.

  In this way, not only the projection that pushes the acupuncture point, but also by providing the main body to the projection, the user's back is lifted up by the main body, while the shoulder joint part is not supported and the thorax is opened. The acupuncture points existing in the vicinity from the neck to the shoulder and the scapula can be pressed against the protrusion. Thereby, the pressing force of the acupuncture points existing around the neck from the protrusion to the shoulder and the scapula is significantly increased as compared with the device having only the protrusion.

  In addition, since the main body is raised vertically, even if the shoulder part is pressed against the protrusion by the user's back part riding on the vertical main body, the weight of the human body from the back part to the device Therefore, the instrument does not move upward like a conventional massager.

  Furthermore, the pillow is provided continuously with the main body, and the projection is provided between the pillow and the main body, so that the user's head can be supported by the pillow. Thus, for example, the longer the length of the projection, the more the projection reaches the deep part of the shoulder portion of the human body, while the shoulder portion is lifted and the head is not supported, the cervical spine However, in the present invention, the pillow is supported by the pillow so that the protrusion is configured to be long and the protrusion is applied to the deep part of the shoulder. Even when touching, the cervical spine can be kept in a normal state without anterior bay, and the feeling of use is good. That is, the present invention is different from a neck stretcher that stretches and presses the shoulder and neck while the cervical spine is anterior bay and the jaw is warped, in the acupuncture points that exist from the neck muscle to the shoulder and scapula. It is designed mainly to apply the projection, and for this purpose, the state where the cervical vertebra is anterior bay is not preferable.

The invention of claim 2 is characterized in that, in the invention of claim 1, the raised portions of the main body form a gentle slope from the pair of protrusions toward the tips of the raised portions.
In the above aspect, since the main body portion is configured to have a vertical shape and form an inclined surface toward the lower end portion, the user places the instrument on the floor and takes a supine position. In this state, when the vicinity of the shoulder is brought into contact with the projecting portion and the vicinity of the scapula is mounted on the main body, the waist from the user's back portion comes into contact with the inclination of the main body smoothly. Therefore, the usability of this device is good. It should be noted that if the length of the raised portion with respect to the tilt direction is too short, the user's back cannot be put on and the above-described effect of massage device displacement due to the user's own weight is not achieved, but there is a problem. There is no problem. For example, even if it is extended to the vicinity of the waist just above the user's buttocks, an acupressure effect by pressing near the waist can be expected.

The invention of claim 3 is the invention according to claim 1 or 2, wherein the raised portion of the main body is constituted by two rod-like bodies that support both sides of the spine of the human body.
In the above aspect, it is possible to reduce the weight of the entire massage device by configuring the main body portion with two left and right narrow blocks along the muscles around the user's spine.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in the invention according to any one of the first to third aspects, the raised portion includes one or a plurality of pressing bodies.
In the above aspect, since the user's back is in contact with the inclined surface of the main body, a plurality of fine protrusions are provided at the contact of the inclined surface so as to stimulate other points around the spine. Also, it is possible to give a secondary acupressure effect at a place other than the point where the protrusion hits.

According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, in the invention of the fourth aspect, the pillow includes a side portion provided wider than a distance between the pair of protrusions.
In the above aspect, the pillow is provided so as to extend in the left-right width direction with respect to the pair of left and right protrusions, so that the user who applies the acupuncture points existing from the neck to the shoulders and shoulder blades, The user can support the temporal region at the left and right wide parts of the pillow and move the head to the left and right to move the head from the neck of the moved side to the shoulder and scapula. It becomes possible to further increase the pressing force to the acupuncture points that exist everywhere.

The invention according to claim 6 is the invention according to any one of claims 1 to 5, wherein the pair of protrusions have their tips protruding obliquely toward the opposite side of the pillow, and the tips of the pair of protrusions The surface of the pillow is provided at a position higher than the surface of the main body, the main body has a vertically long shape extending along the direction of the spine of the human body, and the surface of the main body is a portion on which the user's back rides. It is characterized by.
In the present invention, the back of the user is pushed by the main body, thereby opening the thorax, and by the left and right protrusions located higher than the surface of the main body, the portion extending from the neck to the shoulder and scapula It becomes possible to acupressure firmly the part of the existing acupoint. In particular, since the head can be supported by the pillow, even if a force that pushes the body from below is applied to the body by the main body and protrusions, the jaws may warp and unpleasant force may be applied to the neck and bronchial parts. Absent.

  A seventh aspect of the invention is characterized in that, in the invention according to any one of the first to sixth aspects, the pair of protrusions are attached to the main body so that the width thereof can be adjusted. In this invention, since the width | variety of a processus | protrusion is adjustable, the position of a processus | protrusion can be adjusted according to the location which wants to perform a physique or acupressure, and a user's most suitable site | part can be acupressure.

  According to the present invention as described above, it is possible to provide a massager having a structure and shape that can apply strong acupressure to the acupoints at the deep part of the base of the shoulder and neck just by the user taking the supine position. .

  Hereinafter, typical modes for carrying out the present invention (hereinafter referred to as “embodiments”) will be specifically described with reference to FIGS.

[1. This embodiment]
[1-1. Constitution]
A massage device 1 of an embodiment representing the present invention (hereinafter referred to as “this embodiment”), as shown in FIGS. The main body 3 is configured, and the pillow 4 is provided continuously to the main body 3.

  The protrusion 2 is composed of a pair of left and right, and is configured to slightly draw an arch in the center inner direction. The shape of the protrusion 2 is formed by simulating a thumb, and has a thickness of about 2 cm in diameter and a height of about 7-8 cm. The height of the protrusion 2 is such that when the protrusion 2 comes into contact with the acupuncture points in the vicinity from the neck of the human body to the shoulder and scapula, the protrusion 2 sinks sufficiently deeper than the body surface. It is configured to be considerably longer than.

  The projections 2 are installed at intervals avoiding the spinous processes provided on the spinal column of the human body, so that the deep part of the acupuncture points in the vicinity from the neck muscles to the shoulders and scapula can be pressed, a hard synthetic rubber, synthetic It can be formed of a material that is hard to some extent, such as resin plastic, polyurethane, wood, earthenware, steel plate, and aluminum. In addition, since the front-end | tip part of the processus | protrusion 2 is a part which contacts a human body directly, you may comprise and provide a soft cushion material.

  In addition, the specific number shown here is only an example including the following, and the massage device 1 of the present embodiment is appropriately changed within a range in which the effect of the present embodiment can be achieved in relation to the human body. Is possible.

  The main body 3 is a backrest portion on which the user puts his back below the shoulder joint when the user uses the massager 1. As an example, the size of the main body 3 is about 10 cm in the width direction, about 20 cm in the length direction, and about 10 cm in the height direction at the highest part. If the size of the main body part 3 is generalized, the width of the main body part 3 is designed to come into contact with the back part of the human body along the spine, and the above numerical values are set as approximate values. Is.

  The length direction of the main body 3 is designed so as to abut from the base of the neck of the human body to the position below the scapula. In this case, the length of the main body 3 is preferably extended to a position from the shoulder to the lower end of the scapula, and may be extended to the vicinity of the waist. This is because, when the massage device 1 is used, the back part of the human body is mounted on the main body part 3, so that the user's own weight is applied to the main body part 3, and the user reaches the protrusion 2 from the neck to the shoulder and the shoulder blade. This is in order to prevent the massage device 1 from shifting in the direction of the user's head even when pressing the acupuncture points present in the vicinity, and this effect is achieved at a length that does not extend from the head to the scapula. Since it cannot be obtained, the length of the main body 3 is not appropriate.

  The main body part 3 is also formed with the highest part at the highest part in the upper part, and forms a smooth R-shaped inclined surface 3a toward the lower end part. As described above, the vertical shape of the main body portion 3 is configured to form the inclined surface 3a toward the lower end portion when the user is placed on the floor and lies on his back. Thus, when the vicinity of the shoulder is brought into contact with the tip portion of the protrusion 2 and the vicinity of the scapula is mounted on the main body 3, the waist from the back portion of the user is smoothly grounded according to the inclination of the main body 3. It is to make it.

  The floor here is used as a broad term including tatami mats, flooring, carpets, futons and beds.

  The height of the main body 3 is determined when the user places the device on the floor, lies on his back, makes the shoulder 2 abut against the projection 2 and the body 3 is mounted near the shoulder blade. The shoulder joint from the scapula is provided on both sides of the main body part 3 so that the chest side is in an open state. In the above-described use state, the shoulder joint is approximately grounded to the floor or not. It is set to make a height. However, it can be said that it is a preferable aspect that the user can stabilize the posture on the main body portion 3 so that the shoulder joint is in contact with the floor.

  The pillow 4 is provided on the highest part side of the main body 3. As an example, the size of the pillow 4 is about 30 cm in the width direction and about 15 cm in the depth and height directions. If the user can support the head when the user puts the base of the neck on the protrusion 2 during use, the pillow 4 plays a role as a minimum. In the present embodiment, the height of the pillow 4 is set slightly lower (about 1.5 to 2 cm) than the height of the surface of the main body 3.

  Therefore, in principle, the pillow 4 may be formed with a width equivalent to that of the main body 3 and formed on the extension of the main body 3. In the present embodiment, the outside of the body 3 is formed on the both sides from the width direction by about 10 cm. The reason is that the user presses the left and right of the protrusion 2 in a state where the base of the neck is in contact with the protrusion 2. It is provided to support the tilted head when the head, particularly the face, is tilted in the left-right direction to adjust the strength. Moreover, in this structure, when installing and using on a soft floor, such as a futon or a bed, the massage device 1 can be prevented from sinking too much into the soft floor, and the massage device 1 provides a sense of stability. Can be given.

[1-2. Effect]
The operation of the massage device 1 of the present embodiment having the above configuration will be described. The user installs the massage device 1 on a flat floor. The user places the head on the pillow 4 portion of the massager 1 so that the back is located from the lower part of the main body 3, and the lower back from the shoulder joint on the inclined surface 3 a on the R of the main body 3. Put the part on. Next, the user adjusts the position so that the protrusion 2 comes into contact with, for example, the vicinity of the middle shoulder of the shoulder (see FIG. 7), which is a point existing from the neck of the human body to the shoulder and the scapula, As shown in FIG. 2, the massager 1 is in a supine position.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 7, in the position from the neck of the human body to the shoulder joint and the scapula, the trapezius, scapulolevator, small rhombus, large rhombus, upper posterior saw, cervical muscle There are many muscles such as the brachial plexus, and there are several acupoints in oriental medicine. The position of the acupuncture points may vary between individuals, and there may be different places where people feel comfortable when pressed by a person. Therefore, in practice, the user uses the projection by placing the projection on any part from the neck to the shoulder in accordance with his / her stiffness and tension.

The effect | action of the massage device 1 of this embodiment in such a state is demonstrated using FIG.
In the massage device 1 of the present embodiment, the user's spine portion is lifted from the floor by the user's back portion riding on the raised body portion 3, but it is not supported over the shoulder joint or arm, It falls to the floor. Thereby, the user enters a state in which the rib cage is opened. In this state, the protrusion 2 comes into contact with the vicinity of the mid-shoulder, which is a point existing from the neck of the human body to the shoulder and the scapula. Strong acupressure can be applied to the deep part of the base of the base.

  Moreover, since the main-body part 3 protrudes vertically long, even if it presses a shoulder part with respect to protrusion by a user's back part getting on this vertically long main-body part 3, a back part with respect to an instrument. Since the weight of the human body is on, the instrument does not move upward like a conventional massage device.

  Conventionally, for example, the massage device 1 is composed of only the protrusion 2 and the user presses the acupuncture points existing around the protrusion 2 from the neck to the shoulder or the shoulder blade, or tilts the body and touches the protrusion 2. In the massage device 1 of the present embodiment, since the entire back is lifted by the main body 3 and the chest is open to the left and right, the projection 2 hits the acupoint, The length of the protrusion 2 can be secured longer than the conventional product, and the protrusion 2 exists sufficiently from the neck to the shoulder and scapula even if the user does not press the body against the protrusion 2 due to the weight of the shoulder. It comes to be pressed against the pot. Therefore, it is not necessary for the user to take an unreasonable posture, and the supine position may be taken on the massage device 1.

  Further, the pillow 4 is provided continuously with the main body 3, and the projection 2 is provided between the pillow 4 and the main body 3 so that the user's head can be supported by the pillow 4. Become. Thereby, for example, as the length of the protrusion 2 is increased, the protrusion 2 reaches the deep part of the human body, while the part extending from the neck to the shoulder or the scapula is greatly lifted. In the state where there is no support, the cervical spine becomes an anterior bay and the jaw is warped, and the user is in a difficult posture. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the head 4 is supported by the pillow 4, so that even if the protrusion 2 is configured to be long and the protrusion 2 is brought into contact with the deep part of the shoulder, the cervical spine is usually not brought forward. It can be kept in the state of, and the usability is good. That is, this embodiment is different from a neck stretcher that stretches and presses the shoulder and neck while the cervical vertebra is anterior bay and the jaw is warped, and the acupuncture points that exist from the neck muscle to the shoulder and scapula For this purpose, the state in which the cervical vertebra is anterior bay is not preferable.

  Furthermore, by providing a wide portion in which the pillow 4 is widened in the left-right width direction with respect to the pair of left and right protrusions 2, a user who applies the acupuncture points existing from the neck to the shoulders and shoulder blades to the protrusions 2 The head can be supported by the left and right wide parts of the pillow 4 when the part is moved left and right, and the user can move the head from side to side to move the head from the neck of the protrusion 2 on the side that has been moved. The pressure on the acupuncture points existing around the shoulder and scapula can be further increased.

  Moreover, since the main-body part 3 is made into the shape of a vertical direction, and it is comprised so that the inclined surface 3a may be formed toward a lower end part, the user installed this instrument on the floor and took the supine position Then, when the projection 2 part is brought into contact with the acupuncture points existing from the neck to the shoulder and the scapula, and the back part is mounted on the main body part 3, the waist part is inclined to the main body part 3 from the user's back part. It will come to touch the ground smoothly. Therefore, the usability of this device is good.

  According to the massage device 1 of the present embodiment as described above, the main body 3 lifts the user's back by providing the main body 3 on the protrusion 2 as well as the protrusion 2 that substantially pushes the pressure points. On the other hand, by not supporting the shoulder joint portion, the acupuncture points existing in the vicinity from the neck to the shoulder and the scapula can be pressed against the protrusion 2 with the thorax opened. Thereby, the pressing force against the acupuncture points from the protrusions 2 is significantly increased as compared with the apparatus having only the protrusions 2.

[Other Embodiments]
The present invention is not limited to the aspect shown in the above embodiment, and includes, for example, the following embodiment.

(1) In the present embodiment, the protrusion 2 is fixed. However, the present invention is not limited to such an embodiment. For example, the protrusion 2 is formed on the main body as shown in FIGS. The width of the left and right protrusions may be adjustable by allowing the part 3 to slide in the left-right direction. Thereby, while making the massage device 1 in the above-described general size, the protrusion 2 can be moved in the left-right direction corresponding to individual differences such as a difference in physique or a difference in the position of the acupoints, Since the position of the protrusion 2 can be set at a better position for an individual, the convenience and effect of the massage device 1 can be further enhanced. As a mechanism for sliding left and right, a groove is provided in the body portion 3 in the width direction, and the left and right protrusions 2 are slidably mounted in the groove, so that the protrusion 2 can be fixed at a desired position. Screwing, latching, etc. can be provided. Further, as a means for changing the width of the left and right protrusions, a plurality of holes having different positions in the width direction of the main body 3 are provided, and a structure in which the root of the protrusion 2 is fitted into one of the holes is used. Also good. In that case, the hole and the base part of the protrusion can be screwed, and both can be fixed.

(2) In the present embodiment, the protrusion 2 is provided on the upper end portion of the main body 3. However, if the protrusion 2 is positioned approximately between the main body 3 and the pillow 4, FIGS. As shown to c), even if it is on the main-body part 3 or the lower end part of the pillow 4, it may be provided in the middle so that it may cover both the main-body part 3 and the pillow 4. In particular, as described above, when the protrusion 2 can be moved in the left-right direction and is most likely to expand in the left-right direction, the width of the main body 3 may not be able to cope with it. It corresponds by attaching to the pillow 4, and the protrusion 2 slides the pillow 4 in the left-right direction.
In addition, it is of course possible to allow the protrusion 2 to slide up and down from the main body 3 to the lower end portion of the pillow 4, but the user can move up and down in the vertical direction. It can be said that there is no effect as much as sliding in the left-right direction.

(3) Regarding the configuration of the protrusion 2, in the present embodiment, it is configured so as to draw a slight arch in the central inner direction. However, this only shows an optimal embodiment, and extends linearly, There is no limitation on the shape such as one that is curved and stretched. Further, in the present embodiment, a configuration in which a soft cushion material is provided at the tip of the projection 2 has been presented. However, for example, a spring is provided at the tip portion of the projection 2 to provide a cushion effect, or at the tip of the projection 2. A configuration in which a massage effect is enhanced is also possible by providing a single or a plurality of small protrusions and rotating them. Furthermore, the structure which vibrates the protrusion 2 whole like what is called a vibrator function is also possible.

(4) By providing an attachment function that allows the tip portion of the projection 2 to be replaced, for example, an attachment member provided with two small projections on the tip of the projection 2 and the tip portion of the projection 2 having a different tip shape are provided. By making it possible to exchange a plurality of projections, it is possible to select a projection that suits the user's preference. Further, by providing a roller, a rotating sphere, or a roller with a small small protrusion at the tip of the protrusion 2, when the user abuts the point on the protrusion 2, the body is slightly lifted up and down or left and right. By moving to, it becomes possible to press around the acupuncture point.

(5) The height of the pillow is not limited to that shown in the figure, and can be changed as appropriate. For example, it may be as high as or higher than the height of the protrusion tip. Alternatively, the height of the pillow itself may be adjusted by dividing the pillow itself into two parts, and making the upper surface side of the lower part freely movable up and down with a screw mechanism or the like. Further, mats having different heights may be detachably attached to the surface of the pillow with a hook-and-loop fastener or the like. Further, both the left and right sides of the pillow can be tilted downward or upward so that the head can be easily directed to the left and right. Furthermore, when the height of the top surface of the pillow and the tip of the protrusion is approximately the same, it is possible to provide a recess that is one step lower than the top surface of the pillow between the top surface of the pillow and the base of the protrusion. is there.

(6) In the massage device 1 of the present invention, the back surface of the user abuts on the inclined surface 3a of the main body 3. Therefore, as shown in FIG. A plurality of fine protrusions 5 may be provided so as to stimulate surrounding points, and the protrusions 2 may be configured to be detachable.

(7) In the said embodiment, although the member which comprises the inclined surface 3a of the main-body part 3 of the massage device 1 was shown as one protruding so-called block shape, the weight reduction of the mass of the massage device 1 whole, and a main body In order to prevent the portion 3 from coming into contact with the spinous process protruding from the user's back, in the present invention, as shown in FIG. 6 (a), the main body portion 3 is avoided from the spinous process of the user's spine. In this way, it is also possible to configure the two narrow left and right narrow bridges 6 with a space therebetween. Further, as shown in FIG. 6B, the bridge 6 can be configured as a bridge 6 a having a shape that divides only the tip of the main body 3. Moreover, as shown in FIG.6 (c), it is also possible to comprise the intermediate part of the main-body part 3 as an opening part.

(8) It is possible to provide a heater function to the protrusion 2, the main body 3, the pillow 4 and the like, which are the constituent elements of the massage device 1 of the present invention.
