ALWUP Mini Massager Head Massager, (NOT Massage Gun) Portable Electric Travel Massager with 10 Speed Modes (Purple)

As a cancer patient , this is a perfect size to carry with me. I suffer from neuropathy and it helps with the bottom of my feet, especially in the toe areas .Larger machines were difficult to carry around .Recommend if you have issues with knees , etc as it’s easy and lightweight .

The media could not be loaded. This is a review of “ALWUP Mini Massager Head Massager, (NOT Massage Gun) Portable Electric Travel Massager with 10 Speed Modes Relieving Stress & Sports Recovery for Neck Shoulder Arms Massage“[As a vine reviewer, I am pledging not to be compensated or influenced by the vendor; I state my opinions based on my personal experience without any bias or pressure]With the maturing of lithium battery technology a number of smaller manufacturers have now started producing high quality electric devices which work really well!This particular massage gun is a miniature version of a larger full size therapeutic gun made famous by Theragun.Although this is only miniature copy of that successful product, this gun does its job, and very well at that.The first thing that strikes you is how small and attractive the product is: it is a one piece gun that fits into your palm!it is nicely packed and even comes with a pouch. And some things I like:1. The gun is reachargeable and takes 2 hours to charge for an hour long use2. The charging is done through a USB-A cable that has proprietary charging end that is magnetic and can therefore easily attach to the gun while charging3. There are up 10 modes in which the gun can send pulses4. Because of its size , this gun can reach places where the full size one simply cannot. Try to reach thing the back of your neck with the giant Thera gun!Some minor annoyances:1. The whole gun is one unit and cannot have any attachments2. The gun is powerful and your hand will fell the vibration and leave you tingling for minutes after you have used it . Use a towel wrapped on your hand when using the deviceThis device works well on the face and neck but when it comes to more problematic areas like your knees, this product will be somewhat underpowered .Given that this reviewer had limited time to test the product fully, yet the product worked and was impressive! For the price and performance I think this is a very good device and will give relief to anyone with a moderate to severe muscle pain . We give it four stars.

So I bought this for travel - it says it's not a massage gun so I should have read carefully. My question is what is it then? It looks like a massage gun but it's not that powerful - some other reviewers say it's for your face. To get rid of puffyness? I guess it would work - it doesn't hurt. It almost looks like an adult toy - I hate the purple color but more to the point, it's not a very powerful massage gun. I'm still giving it a neutral rating reluctantly because it does say it's not one but it looks like one and it pulsates like one so I don't want to downgrade it when I'm the one who is not sure what it is but it feels okay on the skin- again, I can't help but compare it to the portable massage gun I got at around the same price point and at around the same size so I don't want to knock it by comparison and it's lightweight so you could put it in backpack or purse - maybe it's also because I'm a big guy - I know some women find the powerful massage guns "hurt" or maybe this is a massage gun for a kid - decent product I suspect but not sure what it is exactly.

I wanted a small massager to take with me on an overseas trip to use on my neck and shoulders. I did not think this small massager would be up to the task given its size and especially, its price! But I was really surprised.

It really as it says on the description " not a massage gun". Even then I thought I would at least be like ..... 1/10 of the power of a massage gun. My hopes were smashed. The battery life was a disappointment for real it was like 15min on a full charge. Not really worth what I paid 😕.

This arrived partially charged and usable out of the box and I have recharged it without any problem. It seems a bit louder than similar massagers that I have used but it is conveniently small and portable. While it can be used for mild muscle massage it is clearly also intended for intimate purposes either for an individual or a couple as indicated by the choice of 10 choices of patterns/intensities and waterproofing which means that it can be used in the bath and also cleaned readily with soap and water. The magnetic USB charger cord is easy to use and has a strong enough magnet that it is easy to connect and doesn't disconnect easily if left in a drawer or on a dresser to to charge. The choice of patterns and intensities seems good for whatever kind of relaxation you are aiming for. The motor does seem to bog down if you try to use it for deeper muscle massage pointing back to the idea that it is intended more for personal pleasures than massage. The handle/pistol form seems convenient for either use. It seems well made though what I have usually found is that the batteries are the first thing to break down so durability will only be know with longer use.

Perfect. Exactly what I was looking for.

At second glance, I have no idea why I thought this was what I thought it was, but it most definitely isn't one of those theragun type deep tissue massagers. If that's what you are looking for, let me say it again. This is not that. It's something very different that you may not have use for. That said it comes in a gift box for some reason and also a bag to keep it in.
