PARKLAND, Fla. -- A South Florida doctor has died after authorities say she was accidentally strangled by a electronic neck massager on Christmas Eve.

Kenneth Gegerson called 911 after finding his wife's body on the bedroom floor next to the neck massager. Paramedics pronounced 37-year-old Michelle Ferrari-Gegerson dead at the scene. Authorities believe her necklace got caught in the massager and it quickly tightened around her neck.

According to Broward Sheriff's authorities, Ferrari-Gegerson spent the evening wrapping gifts and getting ready for work while using the massager to relieve neck pain.

Detective did not specify the type of massager, saying it's still an active investigation.

Apparently a particular model of foot massager ended up killing a handful of users there when it was improperly used as a neck massager.

Quality necklaces have a weak link to break if too much stress is put on it. A common approach is to leave a ring near the end unsoldered.
