Authentic Barbershop Vibration Massager can now be used at home

vibration-massagerWhat has been deemed to be a relic of the past could actually end up being something that you can purchase online for use in the comfort of your home. I am referring to the $169.95 Authentic Barbershop Vibration Massager, which so happens to be a similar commercial massager that has been used by the neighborhood barber in order to finish up a grooming ritual of an era that has long passed us by.

The Authentic Barbershop Vibration Massager happens to be a handheld device that intends to recreate the classic barbershop experience, where after shaving and getting your hair cut, there is an invigorating massage which is more often than not vigorously performed to the scalp, neck, and shoulders. You will wear this particular device on the back of your hand, where the single-speed massager’s powerful 15-watt motor will rotate half a dozen ball bearings laterally and vertically, resulting in generating thousands of vibrations per minute which are then transmitted through the hand. You can control the intensity of the massage via applying the adequate amount of pressure according to your pleasure. You can either massage yourself with the Authentic Barbershop Vibration Massager, or share the joy with a partner – its your call.

The Only Swing Motion Heated Back Massager will hopefully get the job done

swing-heated-back-massagerDo you sometimes wonder whether the folks over at Hammacher tend to play it a whole lot more coy, and at times, direct? There are even moments when their naming convention raises an eyebrow or two, as we do not really know whether it can be substantiated or not. Case in point, the $169.95 Only Swing Motion Heated Back Massager. Seriously, is this the only version of its kind in the market? Well, it has been described as being the solitary heated back massager which will be able to deliver swing motion so that circulation is enhanced, which in turn would (hopefully) help relieve you of your stress.

In fact, the “swing over” technique has been described to be a common massage therapy to end a session, where it involves a lighter-pressure, right or left diagonal movement which will allegedly improve circulation after a vigorous deep-tissue massage. This particular device sports a quartet of massage heads that will deliver gentle Shiatsu and vigorous rolling massage for the lower, upper, or full back, as it moves vertically up and down, in addition to the swing massage setting moving the rollers side-to-side as they travel up and down the back. The heads themselves will feature an integrated heating element each, while you control the speed of the motors via a tethered remote.

The Any Surface Full Body Massage Pad

surface-massageYou know how it is when you have had a particularly long and difficult day at work – all you want to do is just to chill out and wish that the aches and pains accumulated from all the office stress goes away. If only you remembered to schedule for that particular massage after office, and you would be better positioned to tackle the week’s work ahead of you.

With the $199.95 Any Surface Full Body Massage Pad, you will be able to let your tense muscles and aches wilt away, regardless of where you are in your home.

After all, it was not named that for no particular reason at all. No sir, the Any Surface Full Body Massage Pad happens to be one flexible massage pad which offers relaxing, full-body massage on soft or irregular surfaces, and these would include beds, couches, or chairs. It will be different from typical massage pads which will require a kind of solid, unbroken surface in order to work, as this particular bad boy is capable of flexing at four different points, enabling you to drape it over a lounger, chair, or any piece of sitting/reclining furniture. It will come with 20 individual 2″-thick foam-cushioned sections so that you can relax on any surface that is is placed sans pressure points. The pad itself boasts of built-in massaging motors which will target the neck, upper back, lower back, and thighs, and you can control it thanks to the tethered remote. Too bad it can’t serve you beverages at your beck and call.

Panasonic – Massager that relaxes your muscles and warms them gently

Panasonic - Massager that relaxes your muscles and warms them gently

Panasonic is going to release a new massager “Ouchi Refre” (EW-NA63) on September 1. “Refre” is a shortened version of “Refresh” and “Ouchi” means “At home” in Japanese, not “Ouch!” ;)

It’s low frequency electrotherapy equipment that relaxes your muscles by warming them gently with the special pads.

The pads can be warmed up to 41℃. Stimulating and warming your muscles at the same time improves circulation of the blood, so “Ouchi Refre” might have a more potent effect on soothing fatigue than many other massage products.

Price: open price

Power source: AC power
Size: 5 x 12 x 12cm
Weight: 270g

Foot-Powered Back Massager: Too Complicated for Comfort?

Want a massage? Then give yourself one by getting one of the many available self-massaging devices available on store shelves in most retailers.

Massagers are pretty common gadgets and they’re usually pretty easy to use. Most of them anyway, with the notable exception of the foot-powered back massager with hand tool that you see pictured below.

weird back massager

Even their model looks like she’s having a hard time with the device, but maybe that’s just me imagining what it would be like to try using this thing they call a massager.

It’ll probably be easier to use though, once you get the hang of it. The massager is described as allowing “the user to apply firm pressure for extended periods of time while completey relaxing the target muscles.” It also instructs users to adjust the push-button locking pin for back pain relief. Or you could just go see a good massage therapist.

The foot-powered back massager retails for about $50 (USD) over on Amazon.

Ergonomical Back Massager

Many of us office drones tend to suffer from bad backs after spending so many hours in front of the computer monitor, hacking away on our keyboards to finish up that report that was due since yesterday. Couple that with poor diet and a dire lack of exercise, and you have got a recipe for a bad back. Well, good to know that there are ways to obtain some form of relief, and the $99.95 Ergonomical Back Massager would definitely be one of them.

The Ergonomical Back Massager comes across as a lightweight back massager that sports a superior ergonomic design, making it a whole lot easier to pinpoint aches as well as pains located at your back. This would do away with the need to contort the body in targeting hard-to-reach areas of the back, as all you need to do is hold up the massager in front at waist or hip level, allowing its curved arm to arch around your shoulder. The massaging “ball” head would then be placed in the ideal position so that it can get to work, relieving tense neck, shoulder, and upper back muscles. Need to reach your lower back? No need to strain yourself, where all you have to do is lift the handle to chest level, and you’re good to go.

All controls are located at the handle, where its dual-speed motor delivers 4,500- and 5,500-rpm oscillation, which is ideal for light relaxing pressure or penetrating deep massage. It comes with a trio of massage heads: a “point” for precise trigger point release, “knuckle” for multiple knots in the same area, and a “palm” to help promote circulation, and guess what? The Ergonomical Back Massager will play nice with your feet, too.

Heat Therapy Neck Massager

Hmmm, earlier this morning, we took a look at a device that offers your whole body pinpoint massage as well as infra-heat relief, but this time around, here is a device which specifically targets your neck and neck alone. Yes sir, we are referring to the $149.95 Heat Therapy Neck Massager, where you wear it behind your neck just as though it is a shirt collar cradling the back of your neck. The collar massager claims to be able to help relieve neck tension using low-frequency electric pulses and heat. When used in the hands of professional therapists, it is ideal to help relieve muscle pain and strain which is commonly obtained from driving, flying, or office work.

The massager itself slips around the neck in a comfortable manner, where it delivers half a dozen combinations of varying vibration intensities and heat, and all of these can be controlled from the included infrared remote. There will also be six vibration modes that help simulate the gentle kneading of a Swedish neck massage, as well as deliver the invigorating pressing and rolling of a deep tissue massage. As for the pair of elements that are integrated right into the collar, those deliver three levels of far-infrared heat which can penetrate neck muscles for optimal relaxation. You will be able to choose from sessions in 5-minute increments up to 30 minutes, and a full battery charge offers up to 30 minutes of pure bliss.
