Three people have been strangled attempting to use a foot massage machine as a neck massager, the maker of the machine said Tuesday.Saitama-based Matoba Electric Manufacturing Co. said the three died when their clothing got caught in the rollers. The victims had removed the cloth cover from the Arubi Shape-up Roller before applying the machine to their necks.
Similar accidents could occur while using another massage machine, the Shape-up Roller II, the company warned.
