Mighty Mouse Indeed!, December 6, 2009
This review is from: Massage Mouse (Misc.)
First of all, do not compare this with a real personal massage.
Now that we have set that straight, let me tell you about this product. This unassuming, cheap looking plastic, that is called a massage mouse is simply amazing. Have you been to a chiropractor? I have. I went to a chiro for 6 months after ruining my back when we moved 5 years ago. They strap to me a similar gadget on my back with two leads. Electric impulses sent through the wires which cause my muscles to tingle. I lay there for 20 minutes and then send my insurance a bill for a hundred bucks. Of course, what they hook me on is more of a professional instrument; but nevertheless, at least, for me the feeling is the same. It is extremely relaxing. It never occurred to me that you can have your own personal tension reliever gadget. While using this, I listen to my favorite soothing music and it is just great.
This is made by Hi-Dow. They have several models and this mouse is the least inexpensive. It comes with a 9 volt battery, 2 pairs of pads (1 big that is shaped like little hands and a smaller egg-shaped pads), the wires, manual, the mouse, and ears. The ears has no use at all except to make it look like more of a mouse. It says in the manual that it can be used as a document holder. Sound weird, but that's OK. Their more expensive models can range to 100 to 300$ and you can see them being offered on those little carts on the malls. Those can be more powerful, has more combination of massage types, comes with a digital LCD screen, or you can hook two pairs of leads to be used by more than one persons or for multiple body locations.
This model has 3 modes including a combination cycle of massages. It has a small on/off switch that also set the intensity of the electric current. 1 hour automatic turn-off. If you have body aches and muscle pains, this gadget can work wonders.
(But of course, you should seek professional medical advice first concerning one's health.)

A great tool to help with tight mussles. Can't compare to a massage or a chiropractic visit, but nice to use in between!

Massage Mouse, May 15, 2009
This review is from: Massage Mouse (Misc.)
I have used this for a number of months and it is really great at relieving stress in muscles. Its a mini version of the larger one used by my physical therapist. It has helped my neck muscles relax and my neighbor's back muscles. I actually bought this one for my neighbor.
