Featured Comments

This is a percussion massager like a Theragun. It doesn't vibrate. Very different. If she tries to use this like a vibrator, she's going to be very sorry LMAO

I own a Theragun and it's amazing for intense post workout soreness, sleeping wrong (getting old sucks lol), or just stiff muscles. The massage intensity takes a lot of getting used to because you feel like you're being pulverized/tenderized. But, it unlocks and relaxes muscles very well. I wish these devices were available when I was running marathons. Percussion massagers really do require a second person to get the most out of them - especially for the back regions.

As to this specific device, reviews and specs look good. I paid $300 for my Theragun and it was worth every penny. I'm buying a few as Christmas presents. Even if they do die or exert less power, it's a good intro to the value of a Theragun for $30 imo. It's difficult to justify $300+ to someone else for a "massager".

Oh, and product photos show this being used almost halfway up the neck. Please do NOT do that. I wouldn't even trust the other attachments. It'll be fine at first but you could find yourself in the ER. NIH article here [nih.gov] and you can Google anecdotes by people who didn't read the warnings.

Who are all you weirdos buying people massage guns?

I would gift this to someone before I would buy it for myself.

Reading comprehension > you.

Maybe stop trying to use this on your head....

Thank you for a thoughtful/ informative post. This is the massage gun I have [amazon.com] - but does it absolutely have to be used by a professional in order to be effective?
No, not necessarily.... but it does help when you learn from them in person. You may apply stuff like FAKTR along with this which increases effectiveness. No matter what you do, (on your own or learned) you will get some relief at the very least

I bought $500 Hyperice and the battery also die in one+ year. (seldom use. Probably only use 10 times.) The replacement battery is more expensive than cheap massage gun now.

Thank you! I am in healthcare but this is far removed from what I do day to day - will look into it.

This is a great deal OP! My previous version from this was from Costco at $60 or so and was recalled.
I got the same one from Costco couple years ago but was not aware that it was recalled... hmm

Can we take a moment to talk about the top review on Amazon that includes this line: "Bf said you just don't know what to expect from this thing, either you're being assaulted or abused, and for the back of the thighs, even on the lowest rpm setting, he felt like it was vibrating his anus/sphincter open."

Dontknow

Sounds like a win.

I bought one and used it a few times. Tried to charge it a year later and it was dead. Read the most recent reviews on this. Same problem with the battery.
Could you run it connected to the charging cable? If so, at least you'd be able to use it.

Why was Costco selling Amazon basics?

Looks like issue with the battery is a common problem with all these massagers.

Sorry, I was responding to the post for the one purchased from Costco... it is Sharper Image model. I have not experienced any problem with mine and is handy to bring it with me on my cruises. It comes in handy after a long day swimming or walking.
