Abstract
A buoyant water massage device for use in a swimming pool, the device having a body support structure capable of supporting a person's body at the surface of the water, where the body support structure has an opening through which pressurized fluid streams are directed against the back of the user reclining on the device by a fluid dispersal structure. The fluid dispersal structure is connected to a pressurized water source and an air entrainment apparatus and the fluid dispersal structure is disposed a distance below the body support structure such that the fluid dispersal structure does not contact the user's body. Preferably the fluid dispersal structure is adjustable longitudinally relative to the body support structure.
