Provided is a massaging device capable of applying a satisfactory massage while preventing, as much as possible, an excessively large load from being applied from the massaging head to the massage area of a user even when the massage area of the user comes strongly in contact with a massaging head, and further, comprising a structure having a function whereby an excessively large load applied to the massaging head becomes distributed, such that the occurrence of damage, or the like, to the massaging device per se, is reduced. This massaging device (1) comprises massaging heads (4, 6) for massaging the massage area of the user, and arm members (3, 5) having respective massaging heads (4, 6) mounted at forward ends thereof. The massaging device (1) is configured such that each of the arm members (3, 5) is provided with a load reduction mechanism (21) for absorbing the load applied from the massaging head (4, 6) toward the arm members (3, 5). The load reduction mechanism (21) uses a biasing force along a forward-backward direction to absorb the load applied to the massaging heads (4, 6).提供一種按摩裝置，其係即便在使用者的施療部與施療件強力地接觸的情況下，也能盡可能地防止過大的負荷由施療件施加於使用者的施療部，並可賦予合適的按摩，再者，具有使對施療件賦予的過大負荷分散之功能，且具備有減輕按摩裝置本身的破損等之構造。本發明的按摩裝置(1)係具備：施療件(4、6)，對使用者的施療部進行施療；及臂構件(3、5)，前端安裝有施療件(4、6)，該按摩裝置(1)為：在臂構件(3、5)設置有吸收從施療件(4、6)向臂構件(3、5)側施加的負荷之負荷減輕機構(21)；負荷減輕機構(21)係構成為利用沿著前後方向的偏置力，吸收朝施療件(4、6)的負荷。
