A walk exercising floor comprising a base board having a flange vertically projecting upward around the peripheral edge thereof and a recessed surface portion defined within said flange, said recessed surface portion having a plurality of recessed holes thereon, a plurality of stones respectively fastened in said recessed holes, said stones each having a top edge protruding beyond the level of the topmost edge of said flange for massaging the muscles and joints while one is walking, lying or sitting thereon, and a layer of epoxy resin covered over said recessed surface portion in flush with the topmost edge of said flange to secure said stones to said base board. The stones may be manmade, each having holes on the bottom edge thereof into which epoxy resin is filled to secure the stones to the base.

Body fluid absorbing cushioning means for use by invalids and bed-ridden persons for absorption of body waste fluids and for relief of pressure areas on the skin. The cushioning means comprises a laminate with at least three layers including an inner water absorbent layer, an outer generally water impervious layer, and a center layer consisting of an array of generally closely spaced enclosures defining air supported closed cells. Further, in order to accommodate transfer of body fluids from the inner layer, bores may be formed in the center layer between individual enclosures, wherein a second water absorbing layer is provided on the opposite side of the impervious cell layer.

Footcare products and methods for caring for human feet useful for removing calluses, corns and the like from human feet while the human is standing on a surface, such as, a shower floor and applying an abrasive surface to the human foot is disclosed. Representative devices for at least partially alleviating foot discomfort due to skin build-up, such as, calluses include a base structure having an upper and a bottom surface, connecting structure operatively connected to the bottom surface of the base structure, for removably connecting the base structure to a solid surface, and abrasive means, operatively connected to the upper surface of the base structure, for removing skin build up from a human foot. Methods for using the footcare device are also disclosed.

A dual purpose massage and foot and body maintenance device for imparting a massaging action to the body and for removing dry skin and calluses from the feet and body. The tool has top and bottom surfaces and a peripheral wall extending circumferentially therearound. The peripheral wall is inclined downwardly and outwardly from the top surface and provides a gripping surface for holding the tool. The top surface being adapted for the massaging function and the bottom surface adapted for the foot and body maintenance function. The top surface has a plurality of generally hemispherically shaped protrusions adapted to contact and massage the body. The bottom surface performs the foot and body maintenance function. A plurality of depressions and riser portions or grooves is formed in the bottom surface of the tool. These grooves may be used to remove dry skin and calluses from the feet and body by rubbing the bottom of the tool against the dry skin and calluses.

A stress reduction kit includes a display package holding a pair of perforated reflex pin holders each with a printed foot reflexology chart integrally formed thereon. To facilitate creating pressure points on the feet of a user, the stress reduction kit also includes a bag of reflex pins, where each pin is dimensioned to be received in a friction tight fit into any one of the perforations disposed in the reflex pin holders and a set of instructions that guide a user on the placement of individual ones of the reflex pins in respective ones of the reflex pin holders. In accordance with the method of the present invention, when the user inserts the reflex pins in selected ones of the perforations and places the reflex pin holders within his or her shoes, desired body responses are achieved relative to the pressure points created by the pins against the feet of the user.
