Due to a health issue I cannot hold up a handheld massager on my neck and shoulders. With this one I can just set it behind me while sitting up. Due to inflammation, I cannot lean hard against it. But if I just rest against it and let it massage and help the circulation, it sooths and relaxes my muscles. The heating element was dissappinting - it barely gets warm. More heat would have been appreciated.

Gave it as a gift,& the person made sure to call me a few days later to tell me how awesome it was & the relief in their back they felt.

If u like deep tissue massage, this is the one for you! The round ones can’t get in deep like this one . The balls are a bit pointy, that’s what I love about it, it gets in deeper.

This thing is awesome for shoulders, thoracic area, lumbar area, but it barely touches my muscles on my neck. However, my husband loves this for his neck and says it works great for him. He’s about 6’ 2” and 225 ish. I’m a big girl, 5’ 10”, 180 ish lbs. and I’d think this would’ve worked for me, being of bigger stature, but to no avail. I know 180#’s sounds like a lot but I’m tall and built fairly athletic and only have a little thickness in my abdominal area and hips. I bought this for my neck

Does the job. If you really want a deep massage I would suggest lying it. However, this massager goes deep and ultimately starts to hurt when you lie down. So if you’re into that, this is the massager for you. I usually use it for calf and ankle pain, sometimes lower back (but I have to angle it correctly or else it really digs into you.)

Idk why anyone would spend more than 25$ for a similar product when WOW. Seriously surpassed my expectations. I didnt expect to feel the kneading as much as i do. I have a larger chest and have serious back pain and i was tracking the delivery like a mad woman because i was so excited for reief, and I was NOT dissapointed lol. I used it for maybe 15 min and feel the difference. The heat is just the right amount it reminded of hot stones. If i had to say anything ut would be that i thought it…

I like the product, i just thought it would be more comfortable. There is nothing wrong with it, it works fine i just don’t know how to use it comfortably. If you use it as a back massager, you need to not lay on it because it’s extremely painful on the spine when it rotates it almost digs into you. Im not mad about it i just thought it would be better

I use this on my tense neck muscles my upper back my lower back my hip area the top of my thighs, you name it every cycle is 15 minutes and I move it to a new spot. Heavenly and so relaxed when I’ve done them all

I had purchased this back massager last year in August when I was pregnant. Still using it from time to time when I need too. Overall it helps to release the tension of back pain. I gave it 4 stars only because. after using it. The next morning, I will wake up with my back sore from the balls inside the massager. Maybe if I put like a throw blanket or something soft over it to help and soften as the balls rotate on my back. Haven't been able to do that yet. Just a suggestion. But overall it…

I really liked this massager but it didn't hold up for even 1 year. It was used almost daily and gives great relief to knotted muscles but it started to fall apart within 7 - 8 months. I hand sewed it back together but the fabric was frayed right where the balls are so that only bought me a few more weeks. I was going to buy another to replace it but the price has nearly doubled so I picked another brand and got the extended warranty for an extra $3. Wish this one had been built to last.

Bought 5 of these for Christmas gifts! Everyone loves them! I even kept One for myself and I have it plugged in where I sit on the couch and it is the best thing ever! I used it on my whole body! Would 100% recommend for self use or gifting!

I bought this awesome massager to help take care of some back and neck pain I was experiencing. It's cheaper in time and financial cost than going to the chiropractor, as the massager is based on the shiatsu method of massage.I use this on my lower back, which has always been a problem, as I have a bit of a sway back, and lying on my stomach or back is a sure road to pain in that area.I also use this for neck - - and subsequently headache - - pain relief if I've laid in one position too long…

This literally came this afternoon and I’m so happy I got it. I’m 27 weeks pregnant and have a joint disorder, meaning LOTS of pain. I’m in PT but sometimes I just need more relief for my pain. This is going to be so helpful.

I train hard. This is my second such device but this particular model is more effective and higher quality. I have gun massagers, ice packs, rollers and an indoor sauna but I use this most frequently. Besides recovery, it was the only modality the literally cured a chronic hamstring issue. Worth every penny.

Whether you are relaxing on the sofa or lying on the floor. it works everywhere🫶🏽I am glad that I was not deceived by the bad reviews and bought it, a perfect new year gift🎁

I love this back massager, I also use it on my calf’s and thighs considering I have bad ALS. I wish it was longer cover my area instead of moving it every time I want to move it to a spot on my back or legs that could use some pain relief. Other than that great product would recommend. Does not overheat or anything like that.

Worked well for a while and I really liked it, but then the moving part got caught on the fabric and ripped it so the parts are now exposed and it's dangerous to use. I had it for about a year and a half before this happened but only used it maybe a couple times per month.

It works for now, but would definitely recommend investing in something with more motions. This one kind of just pinches.

This unit works well but the cord is too short and also has a connectionclose to the unit that comes undone very easily. I am not sure what the purpose of having the cord have this two piece connection is. Since the cord is short the connection becomes undone and is very annoying.
