Stretching Massager Mat for Back, Neck, and Body Pain Relief with Soothing Heat | Workout, Yoga, Exercise | Adjustable Programs & Intensity Supports Deep Acupressure

Alright, I've had this and been using it fairly religiously for a bit, now, and I can say with confidence that continued use is absolutely changing my life.I've lived with chronic stiffness and pain (undiagnosed cause) for a good chunk of my life. Started with weakness, stiffness, unexplained muscle fatigue, and headaches in my late teens, and has gradually gotten worse and expanded into pain territory. No one has managed to find me a cause (though there's proof that there's chronic inflammation involved), and nothing's proven to be a cure. We have found, however, that certain physical activity helps mitigate some, including stretching and massage.Enter this air mat. I knew better than to expect much true massage out of anything that operates using air bladders, but I also knew that air compression leg "massagers" have been helpful for me, and that stretching is helpful for me. I figured something that helped stretch me passively (vs. having to tense one set of muscles to stretch another) might also be helpful, so I scrounged up the funds to try it out.It absolutely is helpful. Probably the most helpful anything's been in a long time. I've been using it at least once a day, five days a week, and often multiple times a day on different settings. The inflation, deflation, and occasional repetitive pumping of the air bladders does also give some semblance of light massage, it's just not the same as if you used a shiatsu massager or went to a pro. I am the least stiff I have been in almost two decades. Knots I thought I'd never get worked out (especially because I can't afford to go to a pro very often) are gone. I'm even getting fewer headaches.This ran me about the same price as two professional massage sessions, and can be used every day for years. Between that and how much better I'm feeling, I'd say it was worth every penny.Some pointers, if you want to try it:1. RELAX. Let it do the work. Don't fight it, don't anticipate it. Aside from making sure you're aligned on it properly, just lay there and let it move you.2. Remember to breathe. I initially found myself holding my breath when it stretched areas that were particularly tight. Made me a bit woozy. Don't be me lol.3. Give yourself an extra 30 seconds to just lay there when it's done. Don't try to get up too fast.4. Be patient. It took a few sessions before I really started to feel results, but not too many and it was SO worth the wait!5. Start slow. This has 3 intensity settings, and the default is the middle one. Start it on the low one, and work up based on your comfort and needs. Back off if anything genuinely hurts.6. Try the different built-in routines to find your best option. I've found I love to use the Stretch first thing in the morning, the Energize when I'm a little more awake, the Twist after I get off work, and the Flow before bed. I always, always do the Stretch first thing in the morning. On an ideal day, I get all four in. Most days are somewhere in between.In short, this mat has been an amazing addition to my self care and pain mitigation. If there was ever a need to buy again, I would, and I will definitely recommend it to others.

I like the heat combo with all the features that stretches, moves your body subtly to massage it, and it feels like someone is maneuvering your body to relax it. It’s going to be a good help in between chiropractor visits, after garden work, house work, or exercise. There’s different intensity levels too. Easy to use, and I got a good deal during the holidays.

Great for sore backs!

Absolutely love this...just wish it had velcro at the top to hold in place in my recliner.

The media could not be loaded. I love this heating pad/massager. I have been using a heating pad/massager consistently for the past 2 1/2 months because of hip pain. The little pad I was using worked OK however it died on me so I purchased this one with high expectations and it did not disappoint. If you were looking for a deep tissue massage, this is not for you, but if you were looking for some pain relief for joints, this is absolutely perfect! I would absolutely buy this again. well worth every penny, I spent.

I had a very large knot near one shoulder blade for a long time. After just a few sessions with this mat, it has gotten much smaller and my entire back feels looser with no achy, painful spots. I'm hopeful if I keep this up, I can get rid of the knot altogether. I like that I can choose 10, 20 or 30 minutes sessions and the heat helps a lot too.

I am very disappointed with this product. It specifically says that it provides massage, but it does not. In fact, is actually uncomfortable to use.The instruction manual does not explain how the different features are supposed to work. I would not recommend this product.
