PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a massage machine capable of allowing the posture of a treated person to receive a treatment to be an appropriate posture corresponding to a treatment content by adjusting the inclination angle of a seat part in performing a treatment, and performing an effective treatment by reliably keeping the posture of a treated person before/after a treatment.SOLUTION: A seat part 12 is inclinable above a base part 11. A leg support part 15 arranged, on the front side of the seat part, to be inclinable with respect to the seat part, and supporting legs, includes a foot support part 15c corresponding to the feet of a treated person. A control part operates a leg support part actuator 18 while the legs of a treated person are held by leg holding means and the feet are kept at the foot support part 15c. The foot support part 15c is moved to separate from the other part of the leg support part 15, to thereby generate a foot pulling state. Thus, ankles are stretched and a load like stretch exercises is added to the ankles. Then, a treatment related to the stretch of the ankles is efficiently performed and an excellent treatment effect is smoothly given to the treated person.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】 施療に際し座部の傾斜角度を調整して、被施療者の施療を受ける姿勢を施療内容に対応させた適切なものとすると共に、施療の前後で被施療者の姿勢を確実に維持可能として、効果的な施療を実行できるマッサージ機を提供する。【解決手段】 基台部11上で傾動可能とされる座部12に対し、その前側で傾動可能に配置されて脚を支持する脚支持部15が、被施療者の足部分に対応した足支持部15cを有し、被施療者の足部分を足挟持手段で挟持して足支持部15cに保持した状態で、制御部が足支持部アクチュエータ18を作動させ、足支持部15cを脚支持部15の他部分から離すように動かして、足部分を引張る状態を生じさせることで、足首が伸され、足首にストレッチ運動のような負荷が加わって、効率よく足首のストレッチに係る施療を実行でき、被施療者に対し優れた施療効果をスムーズに付与できる。【選択図】 図7
