I received this massager as a gift. I must admit, after testing it in the store, the strength of the messager was intimidating, however, I took it home and used it, and it was absolutely perfect. This has now become my best friend.

Charging the battery is very inconvenien
By T. from Boston, MA on 4/5/2008
Pros:
Comfortable, Compact Design, Easy To Use, Pretty Strong, quiet, Relaxing
Cons:
Cannot be left charging
Best Uses:
After A Workout, Relieve Tense Muscles
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

If left charging the battery will stop charging about after a year and at [$] dollars thats not good nor convenient. If Brookstone would change the circuitry so that we could leave it plugged in all the time while charging this massager would totally be perfect. It's written in the instructions not to leave it plugged in but you will find that its not convenient. Beacuase lets say you unplug it and not use it for 3 to 5 days you will find that the massager will be powerless. Though you could plug it in and use it that way but if thats the case why buy a CORDLESS massager. This is the second one i buy but i will not buy another one untill that issue is taken care of.

It's a really great massager, great for sore back muscles. The only bad thing is that there are only two settings, low and high, and high is almost too intense, at least for me.

Describe Yourself:
Believer
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

My 89 year old Mother had little feeling in her left hand after a stroke, and big messagers jarred her too much. This one is just right for fragile old bones. She has both warmth and feeling in her hand now. I use it on my artist hands to sooth after sculpting or other strenuous work with my 61 year old hands.

I have some peripheral neuropathy on the bottom of my feet and found that using this particular massager relaxes muscles in my arches and relieves the aches after a long day. It's a bit bigger than I need but it works.

I have just purchased my FOURTH Acu Vibe.

It WILL become a plug-in unit after a while. First stops holding a charge so you must leave it plugged in at all times. Then it just quits altogether.
