Back massage? Attention! It can hurt ...

Delivery by Amazon was super fast. Unpacked and a first conclusion: The machine is heavy! It weighs almost a kilogram. Unfortunately, the grip is quite narrow due to the design, so a good handling, I do not want to speak on the matter. An "ergonomic design", as we read in the description, is something else. In addition, these are obviously installed the heavy elements all in the head of the unit, the leverage requires then due to be pretty long handle a strong hand and leads to rapid fatigue of the hand, or even the whole arm when not all of the weight want to let rest the device on the body to be massaged parts.

A massage of body parts, which are easily accessible from the front, but is probably quite possible. I bought the machine to massage my back. But in my opinion, but the unit is unfortunately little or not at all suitable! On the one hand because of the weight, the one-handed operation is quite tiring for the wrists. On the other hand, the massage is - knock effect really strong. For large muscle groups that may certainly have a beneficial effect, but I could find no pleasure with the device at the back massage, unfortunately I had to realize that this device is not suitable for me.

Alas, you come accidentally to parts of the back, which are not provided with thicker muscle packages such as. On the spine or on the shoulder blade or the edge of the shoulder blade That really hurts, Attention! The massage head is unfortunately also so large that one can not massage the parts of the spine as you come too fast on the spine.

In the product description of the manufacturer the device is touted to relieve pain in the back. I have recently tested another device that performs circular oscillations in the massage head to the back and found very pleasant, even on the shoulder blade, there were no adverse effects, on the contrary. This device complies with the beating movements, however, I feel the back unfortunately as very unpleasant.

The infrared light strikes me as nice try. But a simple infrared lamp is not replaced. These questionable infrared function have other devices as well, but you should not expect too much of yourself. I did not feel any effect when it comes to infrared light. As well as? The device has a power rating of 20 watts ...

My conclusion: too unwieldy, too heavy, too strong.
