How does this compare to HoMedics HHP-350 Percussion Action Massager in maximum intensity or power? Which is better for a stronger massage?

Cannot compare directly to the HHP-350 massager as I have not used that. But the Dr Franklyns Deep tissue massager we do have has an intense, deep, strong massage effect. In fact my wife has me turn down the intensity when I massage her neck or back as she feels it is bruising her. That's all I know.

I am not sure if it is more powerful. I have a 20v brushless hammer drill also and I interchange the batteries. Both are very powerful and really amazing drills. I have not used an 18v so I cannot compare the two types. The DCD780B is a great drill, I highly recommend it.

You can use the heat and massager together or separately. Both have seperate switches on the control pad, also they both have two different levels low to high.

Yes, should be fine. It has 3 speeds. But the penetration is probably about the same on all three levels. I use the first level most of the time going back and forth slowly over area. If you stay a long time in area, can be sore later, similar to after having a massage therapist working on a specific area Drinking a lot of water helps flush toxins released from massage. them I have not found anything better. This is the 3rd one I have bought. They seem to only last a few years. The first one stopped after a few years. the second one started becoming noisy and I couldn't figure out why. I gave it to my daughter who was fine with that and bought the 3rd one. If it is on too long (red light comes on), the motor gets hot it will automatically shut down until it cools off. Once cooled down you unplug it and the red light goes off and it works fine again. I have fallen asleep using it so the auto shut off it a good thing, protects itself (and me). I don't know how long it takes to get too hot, perhaps a hr or more. I have never found anything better. The professional full size one may be a little better but someone else has to use it on you, that's the one massage/physical therapist use. I am not sure it is any stronger but it is made to be used by a third party, which are not always available. Any area you can reach, you can do with this machine. Obviously, feels better if you can get your partner to use it on your back as they can get areas you miss. Obviously, you wouldn't want to go over the spine or any bony parts but great on the muscles. Hope that helps.

Don't know, because I am not familiar with the referenced massage device. I am, however, very happy with the Iliving ILG-916 device I have.

I own the still point inducer. I do not yet own the Neck King. I can tell you by reading all the reviews and product descrption that the two products are for totally different purposes. One is a massager/trigger point reliever (Neck King) and the other is exactly what it says - a still point inducer. The still point inducer is meant to be laid on in a very specific spot only (behind head at base of head and neck). Not for massage.

It does not rotate and it does not vibrate. It is a percussion massager which means the the heads go in and out like hammers or pistons. When you adjust it you are adjusting how fast they move. Faster seems stronger because you get hit more often. In my mind percussion is the only way to go.

I would say it depends on where you place the pads as to how intense the little shocks are. On the feet, you can run it all the way up to an intensity of ten, but on the shoulders, I could only stand a six. There are three choices, massage, beat or knead. They all have a purpose. Adjust to your own tolerances. The speed + makes it happen more often, and speed - slows it down.

I like mine. I previously owned the more expensive of the Thumper brand massagers & it was more powerful, but this one is quite powerful & I really like deep tissue massage , so if it was just a tickle I would know & be quite disappointed ( & thus would have returned it).

Hi Sasi, I did not try this, however I believe it wont work, because it does not move like and other massager, it only gives vibrations !

The Classic is really the way to go unless you have very little strength and endurance. It is actually easier to get into the rhythm to use properly. You can vary the intensity if you need to.

I have found it to be just as effective as nustep. Very good machine for home use. My wife has Parkinsons & she works out on it to keep her movement going.

Yes, it should be fine for you. My husband is 6"0, and 310 lbs, with a really big upper body. Thumper works great for him. There is a sliding button to control speed. 5 just means it will go fast. If someone is holding the massager for you, then they just push a touch harder, but even a little will get in and work your muscles very well. sometimes I even massage my husband's back once he falls asleep, and he wakes up feeling great. The pressure of my hand on the back of the thumper is enough even when I'm tired.

my physical therapy place used the classic when I had surgery so that is what I bought. you do use it for just a few seconds and as you build strength you can go for longer and longer times. it is v. efficient.

Regarding the difference between SP-20H and SP-30H, I sent an email to the manufacturer and got a reply as below: SP-20H- Ultra Plush Shiatsu Pillow. This pillow has shiatsu massaging mechanisms that provide a deep, kneading massage. SP-25H- Ultra Plush Shiatsu & Vibration. This pillow has shiatsu and vibrating massage as well. (Discontinued) SP-30H- Shiatsu Massage Pillow. This pillow is not as plush as the other 2 and it only provides a deep, kneading massage with no vibration.

It is more powerful than the less expensive model. It is professional grade like they use at a salon or spa. It should last longer because it is a higher quality unit.

This is the only massage device I've purchased so not sure if more out there with speed settings. This is very well made and sturdy. It is powerful and I find I can use it for several minutes at a time. I don't see sitting there for a half hour with this as the vibration would eventually bother your hand.
