Two arms are provided, each arm supporting a massage wheel which can rotate about its own almost horizontal axis, and, proximate to one of its ends, the corresponding massage wheel and being connected, proximate to its opposite end, to an eccentric portion of the upper shaft and, at an intermediate region, to an eccentric portion of the lower shaft. Elements are also provided for rotating the shafts about their respective axes to produce an alternating movement of the massage wheels in a substantially horizontal direction and in a substantially vertical direction, the actuation elements comprising an upper gearmotor which actuates the upper shaft and a lower gearmotor which actuates the lower shaft.
