Abstract
An apparatus and method for providing therapeutic bubbling massage of a person's body. The apparatus may be adapted to float on, for example, a pond, lake or pool. The apparatus may be formed of an inflatable bladder having an interior volume that is pressurized with air. The weight of a user disposed on the upper surfaces of the inflatable bladder may force a portion of the bladder below the surface of the fluid in which the apparatus is floating, such that bubbles are formed when the pressurized gas is allowed to escape the bladder through openings impacting the body of the user. The gas may be heated or may be infused with an aroma.
