Abstract
A massaging sleeve for massaging body limbs comprises a plurality of inflatable cells in the form of inflatable bags individually received in compartments produced in a flexible covering adapted to be laid relatively flat and rolled into the shape of a sleeve. The cells are in a partially-overlapping relationship such that the outermost cell, which is inflated first, anchors that end of the sleeve to the body limb, while the subsequent inflation of the remaining cells in sequence tends to move the sleeve in the longitudinal direction such as to obviate the need for a shoulder harness. The inner end of the sleeve is formed with substantially rigid elements curved to conform to the curvature of the user's shoulder.
