Abstract
Abstract A plate-like base member of water-impervious material has spaced opposite parallel planar surfaces. A plurality of suction cups are affixed to one of the surfaces of the base member for releasably securing the base member in position on a supporting surface. A sheet of pliable, resilient water-impervious material is affixed to the other of the surfaces of the base member in undulating configuration in a manner whereby when the device is positioned in a shower or tub and the feet of a user are rubbed on the sheet of resilient material, such feet are washed and massaged simultaneously.
