Wahl Deep-Tissue Percussion Therapeutic Massager is Just What You Need to Relax! Perfect for Resting This Upcoming Long Weekend & Highly Recommended by Whom You Know




The Deep-Tissue Percussion Therapeutic Massager may be just the thing you need to assist with all your pain relief and massaging needs. For starters, the massager has a pretty long handle, which means it can reach just about any point on your body. The long arm is great for reaching back over your shoulders for some work or for giving yourself a full back massage! There are multiple speeds and four attachments which means there’s something for everyone and something for every need you have. My favorite attachment is the pressure point one (I think its official name is the “accupoint attachment”). This works wonders on the recurring knots I get in my right shoulder. I also enjoy the four-finger and bump attachments for general massage and muscle stimulation. The four-fingers were really nice on my feet as well. One other bonus about this massager is that it’s a plug-in, but with a really long cord. This means you never need to worry about whether it’s charged, whether you have the right type of batteries at home or whether you can find somewhere comfortable to sit or lay while still being in comfortable reach of an outlet. 

This massager may change my life. It’s not small or portable, which is how you know it will REALLY get the job done. The size of it guarantees a wallop of pressure and intensity, and it’s long enough so you can be sure of reaching all your sore spots. As a writer, I sit at my desk up to ten hours every day, typing away. Plus, I was a rower in college, which has left a legacy of bulging discs in my lower back and knots around my shoulder blades that are sometimes so painful I cannot work. Enter the Deep-Tissue Percussion Therapeutic Massager, whose powerful vibrations almost instantly relieved the knots around my shoulder blades and soothed the constant ache in my lower back. The multiple attachments are nice to have. The Accupoint attachment is good for those hard to reach places under the shoulder blades. The four-finger flex attachment gets around bones, like the spine. But really, you only need the spherical main attachment for all that ails you.

So all my friends are into acupuncture again. They really say they feel results for stress and injuries from sports. I challenge them to ditch their acupuncturist for the Wahl Deep-Tissue Percussion Therapeutic Massager. It has many settings but my favorite was the Accupoint Attachment. It zeroed in and alleviated tension, tightness and pain. Plus, I did not look like a pin head whist I got treatment. The other three attachments were great as well and the deep tissue massage was splendid. I loved that I could work out any kink for as long as I needed and I got to control the intensity and speed. However, I think my electric bill will be through the roof since I never want to stop. 

With a very long handle to reach those lower back and shoulder knots, Wahl has found a solution for our muscular ups and downs. This is a company that handles industrial design with a sense of purpose, and applies its designs to products that cure some of the ills of the world. Percussion means serious massage, so bear that in mind when you’re going for it. With attachments that do an intense job, like a deep tissue masseur, this Deep-Tissue Percussion Therapeutic Massager will deliver intense treatment. The Accupoint Attachment hones in on that certain knot in your back.  
The Deep Muscle Attachment will make your bothersome legs come alive again. The Four-Finger Flex Attachment has become my new cellulite treatment. The French use massage, water therapy, everything to get rid of cellulite, so I’m thinking Wahl might have something here.  

The Raised Bump Attachment is my favorite neck appliance. With this arsenal of problem solvers, you won’t solve all the problems of the world, but you just might make your own day-to-day a little easier.

Eight in 10 people experience aches and pains, however, where it hurts, how often and why play a big factor in selecting the right pain management solution. With this in mind, Wahl, the inventor of the electric massager, is giving those in pain the personal attention they deserve—as in a series of hand-held massagers that cater to specific pain points and conditions. 


“Pain is something most people experience, but everyone experiences it differently,” said Jenny McLaughlin, product manager for Wahl Therapeutic Massagers. “Our massagers are designed to target specific areas, which means people can really zero-in on where it hurts.” 


According to a 2013 online study conducted by Harris Interactive and commissioned by Wahl, 80 percent of Americans experience muscle and joint pain. Three out of four people in pain suffer in three or more places. 

To help those in need, Wahl’s line of therapeutic massagers now offers greater customization with the addition of temperature therapy massagers, a growing number of interchangeable attachments that pinpoint pain spots and products that combine multiple treatments into one product.

Wahl’s latest pain management solutions include:

Hot-Cold Therapy Massager – Wahl’s new temperature therapy massager provides soothing massage with hot and cold temperatures, helping to increase circulation and reduce swelling. Interchangeable attachments and speed settings allow for additional customization. 

· Hot-Cold Therapy Gel Pack – Unlike conventional hot/cold packs, this first-of-its-kind product combines temperature therapy with massage to provide a more comprehensive approach to pain relief. It also offers Velcro straps for hands-free relief.

· Deep Tissue Therapeutic Massager –The Wahl Deep Tissue Percussion massager supports active lifestyles by offering both all-around and targeted muscle relief, even deep down. Its combination of superior power-- up to 3,350 pulses per minute—four interchangeable heads and variable intensity control allow for a heavy-duty massage and customized relief. 

In addition, Wahl has enhanced two of its most popular massagers to provide more customized relief. The Wahl All-Body Massager now offers additional attachments to relieve pain and fatigue while the rechargeable, travel-size Flex Therapy Massager has been redesigned to specifically target the neck and shoulders. 

Wahl Massagers are available at select retailers nationwide. For more information about Wahl massagers and the benefits of hand-held therapeutic massage visit www.wahlmassagers.com or follow Wahl on Facebook and Twitter.
