ShoulderFlex Massager device could be fatal

Washington , Sun, 28 Aug 2011 ANI

Washington, Aug 28 (ANI): US health regulators have cautioned the public that massages delivered by the ShoulderFlex Massager device could be fatal.

 

According to the Food and Drug Administration, one death and one near-strangulation have been reported after a necklace and article of clothing became caught in a rotating component of the device, Fox News reported.

 

In other cases, the FDA said people's hair became caught in the ShoulderFlex.

 

The agency urges people who own the device to "dispose of the device components separately so that the massager cannot be reassembled and used".

 

Manufacturer King International has distributed nearly 12,000 of the devices since 2003 through retail stores and websites in the U.S.

 

The company plans to recall the device, said the FDA. (ANI)
