PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a massage machine which shortens the time for determining a shoulder position. SOLUTION: When the massage machine 1 starts massage movement, treatment elements 8 waiting at a home position Ya start to elevate toward a shoulder position determination starting position Yb. In this case, the treatment elements 8 elevate at the weakest rolling whose target pressure is P1. When the treatment elements 8 reach the shoulder position determination starting position Yb, the treatment elements carry out a provisional shoulder detecting movement. At this time, the treatment elements 8 are elevated by force controlled rolling whose target pressure is P2 that is higher than P1. When provisional shoulder position determination is finished, a real shoulder determination movement is carried out. At this time, the treatment elements 8 are descended from the provisional shoulder position. A position whose detected pressure is P3 is determined to be the position of the real shoulder.
