Rubber ball massager, United Kingdom, 1900-1930 |
||
Description |
This type of massager has four rubber balls (two with ridged edges) and a handle made from Bakelite – an early plastic developed in 1907. The massager would have been purchased from a chemist and used at home, possibly with oils. Massage is an ancient activity practised by medical professionals and non-professionals alike across a range of different medical traditions. As well as being a means of healing and relieving pain, it also helps people to feel relaxed. maker: Unknown maker Place made: United Kingdom Wellcome Images |
