Saves me a trip to the massage lady...

I've done everything. I've had other crappy massagers. It doesn't work the neck, I agree, but is fantastic on the low back! If you like a slightly painful massage and have low back issues (I have L5-S1 spondylythesis), this is for you. Between this and lavender bath salts, I haven't needed a massage in a few months (I used to go 2X month). For the price in relation to the effect and convenience, I give it 5 stars.

Great massager, works exactly the way it should. Had it for months now.. still working great.

Next Best Thing, So Far, To Having a Personal Masseus

I'll start off by saying that I have chronic lower back pain, as well as frequent muscle spasms in my middle and upper back, and I go to physical therapy for it. Recently I was having a bout of back spasms that were so bad I couldn't even sleep, and couldn't get to the therapist, so I took a chance and bought this massager, hoping it'd bring some relief. The very next day after using this, I was feeling almost completely better.

I've tried many massagers over the years, but none have worked so well as this one. It really is great for a deep muscle massage. The rotating heads (or whatever they're called) inside it provide that wonderful pleasure/pain sensation of a masseus rubbing their knuckles into your sore muscles. It's important you are careful about how hard you lean back into it, and make sure that the pillow is positioned correctly so that your spine is between the rotating thingies and isn't actually being hit by them, but that's easy to do. I love that you can adjust how hard the massage is by just adjusting how much you lean back into the pillow. For my lower back pain - which requires quite a bit of pressure in the muscles to get any relief - the pillow has an uncanny way of hitting JUST THE RIGHT SPOT!

Although it's very helpful for all areas on the back, and even for muscle pain in the chest or stomach area, it's not very effective for using on the back of the neck, simply because the design is meant for a larger area. However, since it IS effective for massaging the upper back and shoulders, by bringing relief to those muscles it can, I imagine, help neck pain. Oh, and added bonus: it's not bad for use as a foot massager, too!

I'm giving this 5 stars because I just don't have any complaints about it, and it's helped me so much! Plus, the design is just very well thought-out, with some nice extra touches to the design. There's a flap over the front which covers the massager heads. You have the choice of keeping this down to cushion the massage, or lift it up and back if you want even more pressure and heat. I also appreciate the fact they gave it an extra long power cord and a velcro tie attached to it for easy wrapping-up. It's an attractive enough pillow, too, that you don't have to put it away when you're done, but just leave it on your favorite chair for the next time you want to use it. Which, for me, is going to be pretty much every day. :)

Does the job

I think this is overall an okay product. I always have terrible tension in my neck and although it felt great, it didn't really get the soreness out.
