It does a good job but like all handheld massagers it is heavy so I don't use it as often as I would like. If someone else could hold it for me it would be perfect but holding it for more than a minute fatigues my hand.I generally never buy cordless massagers because they are almost always less powerful and also I don't like having to charge them during the middle of a session. But this massager is extremely powerful, more so even than a couple of the wired ones that I've used that were very powerful themselves. I've owned many different massages over the years and this one definitely surprised me. It also has a couple of the best attachments that I've used so far in all the years that I've used massagers. It has its couple of attachments like any other massager that are basically useless, but it's u-shaped attachment and its main attachment with the soft rubber are two of the best ones I've used. The charge on this thing actually does last fairly long, something around 2 hours of time and it only takes about 30 - 45 minutes max to recharge it. I would definitely recommend this brand and this massager.If I have one complaint with it, it's the fact that the buttons are located right where you place your hand to hold the grip, so you accidentally hit them a little too often, and the fact that it starts off when you turn it on with a pulse setting as it's default instead of the regular setting meaning that you always have to change it if you want the normal massage pattern. But these are two very small complaints in compared to how good this thing is.I've been using this massager for about a week on my shoulders, specifically the tops of my shoulders near my neck. It has worked wonders in loosening those tight muscles! I can feel the knots going away a little more each day.I love that this massager is handheld so that I can pinpoint the exact places that need massaging. I also love that it comes with several different heads that target different areas/types of muscles. I have found the best results for what I'm doing with the general massage head (the large round one). I haven't quite figured out the scalp massager head yet; I keep beating myself in the head with it instead of getting any type of relaxing relief. haha!Straight out of the box, the massager had some charge, so I was able to try it out immediately. I used it for about 2 days (less than 15 min each time) before the battery ran down. It charged fairly quickly; I plugged it up and went about my house-cleaning, and when I came back, it was ready to go again! Not sure how long it actually took, but it definitely acceptable.I have been using the massager since then (about 3 days) on this same charge (still about 10 minutes a day). I am very pleased with the charging time as well as battery life so far.The color of mine is great. I opted for the blue color instead of a basic black. I feel that it adds a pop of color that makes the parts easier to see against the black storage box or black bag. I love the way everything fits securely into the original box, so I will keep everything there 99% of the time (I like being organized like that!), but I can see myself using the bag to transport the massager and the general massage attachment when I travel.Overall, I think this is a great product that will fit the needs of many people, with six different heads and several speeds and settings to choose from.Long story short, this is probably the best massager I have ever used. After using the Deep Tissue Massager for just a couple of days, I can honestly say that this is one of the most convenient handheld massaging machines I have ever purchased. It's easy to use and maneuver. The massager itself has a nice long handle so you can reach your entire back without anyone's help. It's also comfortable to hold because of the soft rubber of the handle and it's lightweight. Geniani's massager has six different sticks, and so far, I've used four of them. The six-head stick gave my back so much relief, and the four-head bar felt terrific on my stomach. I used the cushion stick on my knee, which also felt incredible since I have pain there. Finally, I used the scalp stick head to stimulate my scalp, and it felt beautiful. As I said earlier, it's easy to use. Just Hold down the power button for about three seconds, and it's up and running. Press the power button for one second to change the type of vibration of the massager (pulsing, continuous, etc.). Some controls can increase and decrease the intensity of the pulse. It's straightforward. I would recommend this to anyone experiencing any pain, muscle soreness, or would like to promote healthy hair growth.Nice size portable massager. Not as heavy as another brand I have used that is similar. Several attachments for different areas of your body. Battery life us pretty good and charges quickly. Only problem I have encountered so far is the on button and force of massage button are on the top and my hand keeps inadvertently turning it off because I have to hold it closer to the beginning of the handle rather than towards the end because my wrist arthritis causes me pain due to it being a little heavier in that area.A little weaker than I would like.
