Thumper Maxi Professional Variable Power Review

Thumper Maxi Professional Variable PowerI have lived with an auto accident caused spinal cord injury for well over a decade and have found massage to be one of the few things to bring relief from chronic muscle pain body wide. I have (when I could still afford it) had professional massages at 60+ an hour, use an iJoy massage chair, and every evening use this Maxipro Thumper for an hour or more while watching TV. It DOES the job,,,,,,, and has been powerful and useful for 5+ years now. It is NOT a vibrator as one reviewer surprisingly suggested and "thump" it DOES. Unlike other handheld units (I owned the Mini Thumper but it quit on me after 1.5 years of this kind of use) the shape and weight of this make it perfect for placing in different positions for different body parts where a leg can lay on it or it can lay on the leg, etc. For the back, it can be propped easily and with some adjustments here and there does an excellent job of relieving deep muscle pains that nothing else works to relieve. The moment this one dies,, I'll order another immediately!

Added comment, The massager "died" last night and as I said, I ordered another immediately and from this Merchant in particular. I had the occasion to speak with the MFG after I took the unit apart to seek the reason for its demise and their top notch service dept. told me a way to keep it running a little longer and provided me a way to repair it when it gives it up permanently. So, this gave me reason to call the Merchant above and see how they handled my request to cancel the order. They were courteous, knowledgeable, and helpful and they deserve this notation. So, one more reason to buy this High Quality (and I've seen the inside) massage unit that may last my life time.I am not one who gives the highest praise easily but I DO for this dynamic duo.
