First Claim
1. A massager with an improved interface comprising:
- a housing having a handle and a massaging head;
a massage actuator in said housing for transmitting a massaging action to said massaging head; and
a gel on a portion of said massaging head, said gel being sufficiently flexible to conform to various contours of a person'"'"'s body and being sufficiently flexible for effectively transmitting said massaging action to a user from said massaging head over an area of said user'"'"'s body covered by said gel, wherein said massaging head further comprises a node for transmitting said massaging action mounted to said massaging head, wherein said node is a hard rubber.

Abstract
A massager with an improved interface preferably including a housing with a massage actuator positioned within the housing. The massage actuator is positioned in the housing so that the massaging head which is attached to the housing may receive the massaging impulses created by the massage actuator. The massaging head preferably has a portion of the head covered by a gel covering which is flexible to conform to the various contours of a user'"'"'s body while at the same time effectively transmitting the massaging impulse to the users. The massaging head may have portions which are not covered by the gel bed to further increase the versatility of the massager so that should the user wish to focus the massaging impulse to a specific area it may be done at the users convenience. It is envisioned that the improved interface may be used on portable handheld massagers, foot massagers, and various computer and/or keyboard wrist rests and mouse pad rests.
