For millions of American, deep-tissue massage not only is a great way to reduce daily stress but also an effective alternative to traditional medicine for temporarily relieving pain. In fact, "deep-tissue massage was one of the more effective therapies, whether conventional or alternative, for osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, and back and neck pain," according to a recent survey of more than 34,000 readers by Consumer Reports.
Up until now, the closest thing to a real massage has been a high-end massage chair, which can cost thousands of dollars and still leaves a lot to be desired.
Recognizing this problem, a new line of hand held massagers have been developed for home use. These new personal massagers are both affordable and effective. |
