I’ve owned more neck massagers than I can count and none of them came close to this. it feels like something you’d only get in a proper clinic. The first time I used it the pressure and stretch released a knot in my neck that had been there for years, and every session since then has left me looser and more comfortable. It’s solidly built and quiet enough that I use it while reading or watching TV, and the whole package has a quality and completeness that makes it feel like much more than just another gadget. I honestly didn’t expect a home device to make such a difference but this one has become part of my everyday routine and I wouldn’t want to be without it.
