<p>The invention relates to a novel enclosure means containing, or adapted to contain, a fluid pathway or channel. A fluid nozzle or jet is adapted to be affixed to an entry port to said fluid pathway. The nozzle, or jet, can be connected to a source of water, or water and air, as in a whirlpool jet. A fluid stream entering the fluid pathway is directed onto a flexibly resilient portion, or diaphragm, of the enclosure means, and after contacting the said diaphragm, is removed from the enclosure means. The rate of inflow to outflow of fluid is equalized so fluid build-up in the enclosure means is avoided. The fluid stream impinging on the diaphragm, and thereafter being removed, imparts a vibratory action on the diaphragm which gives rise to a massaging effect on the neck or other part of the anatomy resting on the enclosure means. The enclosure means is preferably placed or supported on a whirlpool bathtub ledge or support so that connections to a source of fluid, under pressure, is readily available.</p> |
