PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a massager that makes stretch treatment possible which is suitable to a selected treatment strength, regardless of a supporting state to the leg support part of the leg of a person to be treated in a leg stretch treatment such as leg flection and leg extension.SOLUTION: A criterion for travel speed is preliminarily set for inclination in accordance with a treatment strength for which strength is instructed. Receiving the strength instruction and/or the treatment instruction, the massager inclines and/or moves the leg support part, with the leg inserted and held. At the same time, when the travel speed of inclination reaches the criterion, stop position for inclination and/or movement is determined in accordance with the treatment strength for which strength is instructed.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】脚曲げや脚伸ばし等の脚へのストレッチの施療の際に、被施療者の脚の脚支持部への支持状態のいかんにかかわらず、選択された施療強度に適したストレッチ施療を受けることが出来るマッサージ機を提供する。【解決手段】 強度指示される施療強度に応じた傾動の移動速度の目安値を予め設定し、上記強度指示及び/又は施療指示を受けて、脚を挟持した状態で脚支持部を傾動および/または移動させるとともに、傾動の移動速度が目安値に達した際に、強度指示される施療強度に応じた傾動および/または移動の停止位置を決定する。【選択図】 図7
