Abstract

The massage shower system (6) includes injectors (7) for directing jets of water and air and water under pressure substantially radially towards the body of a patient standing up, a frame (9, 42, 44) supporting the injectors (7), and an actuator (10, 43) for communicating to the frame a vertical reciprocating movement with respect to the patient. The frame is displaceable between a lower position and an upper position along the vertical direction, according to an ascending movement the speed of which varies from a minimum to a maximum value.
