Why just a pillow? Well ... to be honest, I am too cheap, plus didn't want to make room in my New York City apartment for a massage chair. (I value my space!) I've tried the chairs at the Sharper Image shops, and they are fantastic! I hoped that good things ... um similar results, could come in small packages.
So I bought Zyllion's Shiatsu Massage Pillow With Heat ... and it works! Here are the pros:
- It has a 6 cm compact body.
- Indeed (as promoted) 4 deep kneading Shiatsu balls do "relax, relieve and soothe aching muscles" and nerves.
- The heat definitely helps. It feels great!
- The nodes rotate in both directions, alternating, much like the knuckles of a real human being.
- The device is programmed not to overheat, and it shuts off after 20 minutes for safety. You can also push a button to turn the heat off.
- You can use the slim cushion on your lower back, upper back, neck, stomach, calves, and thighs.
The portable cushion has a strap to wrap around a chair, but I haven't used it.
The manufacturer claims the device can be used in the home, office or car. Included is an adaptor to plug into a car dashboard, and the packaging shows an image of a little stick person reaching for a steering wheel. What ... seriously!?!
Who wants to be on the road with drivers who are having a massage! Lord God, No! Some people won't stop a moment for directions much less pull over for 20 minutes to treat a spasm!
So please fellow motorists, for the safety of all of us, keep your full attention on driving and use your Shiatsu massage pillows at home.
