Mothers Day Gifts for Mom Women Dad Men Him Her Fathers Day Christmas Air Compression Massager with Heat

I purchased this product as a Christmas gift for my husband, who suffers from severe and often quite painful edema in his legs due to congestive heart failure. We didn't open it and try it for a month or so, as he wanted to consult with his Cardiologist for confirmation that it would be safe for him to use. He brought the device with him to his appointment to show his Doctor who confirmed that such devices, used in conjunction with elevating the legs, can often reduce swelling and provide relief. The first time he used it, he found that to be the case--it both substantially reduced swelling and was helpful in reducing the pain caused by the swelling. He has continued using it on a regular basis, and it continues to provide him relief. Overall, the product and its remote are easy to use, and he has found through experimentation, that the cycle which produces rapid compression moving up and down his calves provides him the most relief. The only challenges he has (and why I gave it 4 stars for "ease of use") are likely more related to his situation, and not a defect of the product itself, and are both related to actually fitting the cuffs/boots on his legs. First, it is difficult for him, and may be for others with mobility/flexibility challenges, to lean over and apply the cuffs to his legs tight enough for them to be most effective, so I assist him with putting them on. Second--and this might be due to the fact that he as HUGE calves--the "extension panels" that attach to the cuffs with Velcro are barely large enough to encircle his legs, and there is no compression delivered to the areas of his legs that are covered by them. My suggestion for possible product design upgrades would be to offer the product in a range of sizes where the air chambers providing the compression would actually encircle the entire lower leg. Other than those two, rather small issues, the product absolutely works as advertised and both he and I highly recommend that you give it a try! On a side note, recently I have been experiencing what I believe might be "restless leg syndrome" while asleep at night, which has at times woken me. Although I don't have edema, I did try using the device on myself a few times before retiring for the night, when I had been on my feet all day and my legs felt "tired". I have to say that it felt wonderful, and seemed to calm my legs and improve my sleep! So this device might also provide relief to those who's occupation requires them to stand or be on their feet all day. The device is affordable, so I say "give it a try"! Read more

These are some of the cheapest ones available for a full leg massager. I can’t imagine a more expensive one doing any better. I have restless leg syndrome and these feel amazing. I have had 7 total hip replacement surgeries starting at age 24, im now 55. I was diagnosed with avascular neucrosis and let me tell you these feel absolutely amazing. They remind me of the scd leg massager they put on me post op to reduce the risk of blood clots. Truly this is the best money I have spent on myself in a long time. If you are uncertain, just try it. You won’t send them back, I promise. The amount of pressure can be adjusted. They are heated as well. The only downfall is it does take a couple minutes to get them on but it’s worth it. This set does not come with a storage bag but I ya e something I can use for one so that’s not an issue. Read more

After a long day on my feet this device really helps! Sometimes, the feet massager pops open and that is not good! Read more

Good pressure and good heat Read more

We were looking for something to help increase circulation and blood flow after workouts, ski days, or just when our legs need some extra TLC. Aging bodies don’t recover like they used to. We ordered and tried a few different versions of these compression boots. This was the one that we kept, as it was easy to use and it didn’t strangle our legs. It can adjust easily between my large legs and my wife’s smaller legs. I also prefer more pressure with a little heat. She likes less pressure with no heat. Both modes work great for us! Our only complaint is with the loud air pumps located in the controller, but it was the same with all of the units we tried. I can turn it on and throw the controller under my chair or a blanket and the noise is minimal. Thinking of buying a set for my brother and his wife to use as well. Great product! It helps us recover faster. Read more

Would not recommend. Cuffs are so small, made for a kids leg or adult forearm. Come with extender that you can't adjust properly and even if you could you would then have no pressure on the front of the leg. Read more

I simply can't complain. Simply being a heavy seat individual I initially didn't like the fact that it didn't go up higher on my thighs but once I started to play with the different modes and intensity I begin to feel it in my thighs more and more to the point where I had to lower the intensity. Brings great pressure to your legs and helps relieve pain. Read more

It gets the job done if you’re looking for something to throw on after a long day of being on your feet. Just be aware… It doesn’t matter what mode you chose, it’s all the same, I would have to unwrap the section I don’t want to get massaged because it doesn’t matter if I pick just foot or just thigh, it does the whole thing leg regardless. Also the only realistic way to adjust the intensity is to manually adjust how tight you wrap the massager. I tried to return it but I found out too late… Read more
