An acupressure massaging system includes a platform having an upper surface, and includes an array of intersecting air channels extending therethrough in communication with space external of the pad. An array of spaced, independently flexible nipples extends from the upper surface of the platform, each nipple having an upper distal end and a flexible, accordion-pleated side wall comprised of material having elastic memory and defining an internal air-flow chamber. The air-flow chamber is in fluid communication with the air-flow channels and each nipple is structured and disposed for movement from a biased and normally extended position to a compressed position in response to contact with the skin or clothing of the user. The elastic memory of the nipples\side walls, created by the accordion-pleated side wall structure in cooperation with the elastic memory of the material of the side walls, normally urges the nipples to their extended positions to exert a kinetic counterforce on the skin or through clothing of the user providing an acupressure massaging and air-flow effect.

An acupressure massaging system, comprising: a platform having an upper surface and a lower surface, said lower surface defining a plurality of intersecting air-flow channels and said upper surface defining a plurality of air-flow holes through said upper surface in air-flow communication with said air-flow channels and with space external of said system; an array of spaced, independently flexible nipples extending from the upper surface of the platform, each said nipple having an upper distal end and a flexible, collapsible, accordion-pleated side wall defining an internal air-flow chamber, the air-flow chamber being in fluid communication with said air-flow channels and with said air-flow holes to enable air flow into and out of said air-flow chambers and said air-flow holes, and wherein said side wall of each said nipple is comprised of a material having an elastic memory, whereby compression and movement of the nipples is made possible by the collapsible, memory-containing side walls in cooperation with movement of air into and out of the air-flow chambers.
