it really feels like a hand working the tight muscles
I have a chronic neck/back condition I've lived with for 15 years. It is really hard to massage that area yourself and expensive to get a regular massage which only offered a temporary solution. My physical therapist suggest this product. I am 5ft 2 inches so the massager is rather large on me but, I have been able to adapt it to work the areas needed. The wide hand straps really help to move it into the desired location and keep it there. This massager not only works on the neck, shoulder and back, but can work on tight thigh and upper arm muscles. I have only been using it for a few days but already I find I am taking fewer pain meds. In the right location, it really feels like a hand working the tight muscles. I am hoping that with longer use, my neck and shoulder issues improve even more. If you have a small frame or are on the thin side, like me, take care not to use it too long at one time as you can make the area rather tender. I found it works best when I use it for 5 mins, rest for 1/2 hour and use it again. That also gives your muscles time to relax in between.
