The Wahl Deep Tissue Percussion massager provides all-around and targeted muscle relief, even deep down, to speed healing or fitness recovery to support an active lifestyle. Percussion is the ultimate massage experience providing fast comfort by disrupting pain signals, increasing local blood circulation, blocking neurotransmitters, and may help decrease inflammation and increase oxytocin levels. All of these allow muscles to relax, reducing feelings of tiredness and pain. Deep kneading therapeutic massage helps relax and relieve muscle tightness all over your body. It has a combination of superior power– up to 3, 500 pulses per minute and four interchangeable heads for customized pain relief. Variable intensity control allows you to dial in from a gentle relaxing massage to a deep invigorating massage and everything in between depending on your condition or need. Equipped with 4 customizable massage attachment heads to ensure relief. The innovative Four Finger Flex attachment has four finger-like nodes to replicate a masseuse’s hands. The acupoint attachment head pinpoints deep into the tissue to break up knots. The Deep Muscle rounded attachment head is smooth to create a gentle, relaxing massage for all body use. The Flat Disc attachment is extra wide to provide a larger surface area for widespread vibration to cover large areas. Note: The massager has a temporary stall force of 22lbs – if this pressure is applied the massager will stop movement to prevent overloading the motor, that does not mean the massager is broken. It will resume function once it is turned off and then back on again. The product in the packaging may not be exactly the same as in the photo due to continuous improvements to the product. We have updated the internal components in March of 2023. FDA registered medical device.

Great messager , great value
This massager works well. It does have plastic parts so you wanna be sure not to over tighten the attachments. If you over tighten, you probably will break it. I saw notes that people think itâs loud. It does get loud if you donât tighten the attachments correctly and if theyâre loose, yes itâs very loud. But if you tighten correctly, itâs not that loud. Itâs actually rather quiet I find. I strained both my calves and this product did very well to work that out and speed it up my recovery. I think it could last quite a while so long as youâre respectful of the plastic parts and donât overdo it when tightening. I like that the handheld device has a dial to regulate how rapid the pulses are. Easy to use and operate. Yeah I think itâs a good product. Sure canât beat the price.

Works well. I like it.
Pros: Works! Has variable intensity speed (dial you can adjust to exactly what you want). The attachments each work differently, and do their job. Powerful and never runs out of juice (has a cord, not batteries).Cons: Only 4 attachments, though in truth I don’t know that you need much more, these work well and are multi purpose. It is bigger than I expected, almost as long as a short luffa. The cord is very long (10-12 ft), and can get in the way, but is better than having to worry about batteries.When I hold it in my left hand, my metal ring clinks/vibrates against it. funny and irritating at the same time.Thoughts: I like it, it works well, it isn’t too heavy. I’m happy I got it.

Great medium pressure massager
This works great for my legs, feet, shoulders and back. I have used it for several years. When I could not raise my right arm and was doing physical therapy with slow results, a few minutes on my shoulder and shoulder blade completely removed the problem. I could raise my arm with no pain or obstruction. I massage my legs after walking and it helps de-stress. I have ankle and heel pain that is mostly alleviated with this massage. I would probably get even better results with someone else massaging so I can fully relax. I usually use the lowest setting and do not need the max. I am in my 60s with some arthritis and hip issues and this definitely helps. I am fearful of the higher powered massagers but was considering an upgrade because I have had the issue where this has broken. I am thankful I read the review where the person took his apart after hearing the loose screw. I did the same and was able to fix mine and it now works perfectly. It was a little tricky getting it back together but I did and I am NOT mechanically inclined. I recommend this as a starter for anyone condidering a deep tissue massager. It is noisy, but there are no battery issues since it is corded. It probably not as powerful as some others but itâs safe and I think powerful enough for most. You may have to tighten an inner screw, but it is doable.

Inexpensive but Powerful
This is my 2d one; 1st lasted 5 years; I use it hard every day. Use it with my stretching workout. Stretching serves its own purpose, but this massager keeps my hamstrings loose. Love the extra long power cord. Quiet but powerful. Interestingly, you can run this massager over bones and you don’t notice it. The curved long handle reaches hard to get to places and it so well balanced that it doesn’t feel heavy. I have spent 2 to 3x more for massagers that don’t provide the same performance as this one does. One final note: there are at least 6 PhilipHead screws holding the device together. I use a long-shank screw driver to tighten the screws after considerable use. They don’t need much turning, but when you do, the massager rewards you with more magnificent performance that you can barely hear. Disclaimer: I don’t work for this company, nor do I own stock in it. although I probably should.

Very effective
This pulse massager works wonders on my feet. I would recommend this to anyone thatâs on their feet for many hours in the day and wants to get rid of the ache.

Vast waves of tension leave your body! Aaaaaaaahhhh!
This has been a lifesaver and will change your life, guaranteed. I am an older male who is still active and sometimes I push myself pretty hard. My muscles tense up and my wife is unable to massage with her hands alone. THIS is better than a “normal” massage. OK, that is, it costs only electricity and the time of your partner, is more easily available and I have found that the percussion quality of this device works every bit as well as a typical therapeutic oil massage. Granted, it doesn’t provide massage to the face, scalp, fingers, etc., etc., that a skilled massage therapist can do, but hits all the main targets, never gets tired, cramps, etc. and with its’ long handle, one can get a fairly decent self-massage if a willing “masseuse” is not available.The length and weight of this device permit the user to apply just enough pressure to really get into the deep tissue where knots and pain reside. Sometimes, depending on the head used and the operators’ technique, pain will be “discovered” residing in the shoulder blades, back, ribs, glutes, etc. that can then be massaged “out” through this device. Once that is done, vast amounts of tension leave the body, allowing for complete relaxation, deep, uninterrupted sleep and a much more relaxed state of mind.The vibration speed is fully adjustable. I like High, my wife likes Low.Technique is very subjective, but I recommend the following for best results.1) Near the edge of the long side of your bed, pile 3-5 pillows on top of each other and place your upper body on the pillows. This allows your ams to fall downward, not outward and is similar to the experience one might have when on a massage table. Here, your Trapezius and Rhomboid muscles are accessible, as your shoulder blades have moved outward. Your legs and feet can be open naturally on the bed. You may wish to have just your feet off the end of the bed. A rolled up towel or blanket under the ankles may help here instead of feet off the bed. The downward facing head can be supported with a small pillow or two under the forehead as well, allowing access to the length of the back of the neck.2) Start gently with the top (neck, base of the skull) of the back side of the body and work downward doing one side at a time. Use care and avoid bony areas such as skull, ribs, elbows, ankles, etc. Small circles are best. Vary the pressure depending on the size, mass and direction of the muscle tissue. Larger muscles require more aggressive application and more massage time to relax. Experiment with your partner to find out his/her needs. Some slightly lighter pressure long strokes may feel great horizontally across the back/ribs, femurs, calves, or you may hate having that area massaged. Everyone loves having the bottoms of their feet massaged, especially the arches.3) Some areas on the front of the body may be massaged using this device, but use caution here.4) Use of a cotton sheet over bare flesh keeps you warm and prevents the massage machine head from pulling hairs, ouch!These machines will last about 2 years with daily use. I highly recommend this item and would buy it again.UPDATE Dec. 2, 2016I purchased this item on March 7, 2016. It makes a LOT of noise and is starting to fail. My earlier assumption that it will last 2 years was wrong. It has not lasted one year! I know from past experience that if you use this item daily or 3-5 times per week, that is considered a lot. The internal parts are often made of plastic and wear out. This item is made cheaply to a specific price point. This has been used for only 9 months and is near the end of its useful life. I still recommend it, but now am disappointed that it didn’t even last one year.
