Sweet baby jesus... I love it
So I literally just unpacked this as of 30 minutes ago. Plugged it in and gave it a spin (ha..ha..). Now first, it should be known that I regularly go to massage therapists and various ones have told me at different times and in different ways "You ain't right". I have extremely tense muscles and I've literally had a massage therapist work for an hour trying to unknot one part of my shoulder/back. So I did not have a lot of hope for this thing, but I figured it if could do something, it would be better than nothing, and even if it craps out after a week, it's still less than half than what I'd pay for a massage. So I was surprised to find that the rolling action actually does apply some fairly decent pressure and I was dreading it being just that "vibration/shake" thing that previous "massage" devices offer. This gave a really good firm rolling action in both directions that actually worked to relax my neck and shoulder muscles significantly. I tried the heat feature and to be honest, I didn't feel too much in the way of heat. I might try again but I really didn't notice any temperature difference (so either mines defective in that way or the heat element is so minor as to be unnoticeable). I'll update it if I figure it out, but right now, I really love the rollers and my screaming back is now down to a minor holler.
