Life Saver Rating - 5 Stars (Life Saver) - Mini Massage Gun with Heat and Cold - Portable
I got this mini massage gun because we were spending a few days in Orlando running around the parks at the Food and Wine Festival and Halloween Horror Nights. I knew we’d be on our feet a lot. I also had been looking for a one that was portable and could travel easily. The heat and cold therapy for tired muscles was a splurge, and I figured those features might enhance an already good massager. I was right. After one full day walking through Epcot, my daughter and I commented about our feet being sore. I remembered the massager and started working in my feet, working from the ball to the heel, then up around the calves. The relief was almost instant. The smaller massage head size made it easier to target sore spots, especially compared to the larger massager we have at home. My daughter used it next and loved it too. She found that running it gently across the top of her toes, where they meet the foot, helped release the pressure there after hours of walking. The heat function feels like an electric hand warmer, with two levels—a light warmth and a higher one that’s perfect after a long day. I haven’t used the cooling feature much yet, but the heating alone adds real comfort. The portability is excellent. It’s small enough to toss into a travel or gym bag and go. It is a quality massager and the massage bits fit in securely. It has multiple vibration levels and it was powerful enough to really work. When I got home, I gave it to my wife to try who has plantar fasciitis. She also loved it. She had to start slow at first because it could be a little painful, but she said she noticed a difference throughout the day. That says a lot. The only small downside is that it doesn’t have a screen or battery indicator. At this price point, that would be a nice addition. Still, the performance more than makes up for it. I plan to buy another one for my daughter since she’s on her feet all day at cosmetology school.
