If you want a versatile option that can help with various aches and pains, choose one that has power and speed settings.

Relaxing Massager.This massager comes with a convenient carrying case to seamlessly take on the plane or anywhere on the go. What We LikedWhile there are no formal guidelines for how long to use a massager, you shouldn’t use them too long, especially not in one place on your body. “There are reported cases of fascial damage from excessive massager use,” explains Dr. Lev Kalika, owner of New York Dynamic Neuromuscular Rehabilitation & Physical Therapy. “Patients should understand that massagers are not intended as self-treatment but rather as a supplemental tool. It is very easy to create fascial or cutaneous nerve damage if you use excessive pressure or excessive time under pressure.” Beyond being an effective massager, it was easy to use: "You just set it down, hit the power button, and lie down on it," our tester said, noting that its small shape made it easy to adjust and position to target specific areas. It is lightweight, durable, and ideal for those on the go.
