I've always read mixed things about them and for some reason I always thought they were thousands of dollars. Finally decided to look them up and to my surprise they're not lol. Don't ask how I got that in my head.

I went ahead and ordered one to see if it helps. A lot of my pain is muscular and I will have muscles that will seize up for basically days. Even if this can relieve some of it, I'll be happy.

Any have experiences with them?

I have never tried them, haven't even heard about them before now. I look forward to hearing your review of it, take as much time as needed.

I love it. It's really nice. Took a bit of testing with all the different options and places to put it but it feels great. The settings I like most feel like a massage. I use 4 pads at once. My right side is tighter than my left so I have to use less power on the right. My favorite is on my upper back on the shoulders. This is the one I got
