Massagers

How to choose a massager

Start by deciding which part of the body needs a massage – that determines the type of device. Below is how our massagers differ and what to look for.

For muscles after sport – a massage gun

A massage gun uses rapid percussive strokes to work deeper muscle layers – useful after a workout or a long day. Compare attachments, noise and battery, not just the number of speeds:

• FIT2 MG-211 – 99 speeds, 8 attachments, 16 mm amplitude, up to 40 dB.
• FIT2 RelaxT5B – brushless motor, 30 speeds, 6 attachments and a carry case.
• FIT2 PRO HN049 – 30 W motor and a head that heats (45/50 °C) or cools (13/19 °C).

For feet and legs

If you stand or walk a lot, consider the FIT2 ZMF002 foot massager – it kneads the feet with Shiatsu rollers and adds air compression and heat. For the calves there's the FIT2 F014 air compression massager (3 modes, 3 pressure levels, heat), while the FIT2 Reboot wraps the whole leg – feet, calves and thighs.

For neck, shoulders and back – with heat, at home and in the car

Desk workers usually get the most out of a neck and shoulder massager: the FIT2 8606 has 8 rotating Shiatsu heads and heat, and you can use it while watching TV. For the whole back, choose a massage seat cushion that straps onto a chair or armchair: the FIT2 887B (kneading, vibration, heat, neck zone adjustable by 9 cm; an elastic strap fits most chairs, sofas and car seats) or the FIT2 886BT (adds tapping and air cushions). Cordless option: the FIT2 Pulse massage pillow.

For joints, eyes and more

• FIT2 KN215 – a strap that wraps around a knee, shoulder, elbow or wrist; heat, vibration, 5/10/15-minute timer.
• FIT2 BEM01 – eye massager with 3 heat levels, 4 modes, Bluetooth music and a 15-minute timer.
• FIT2 BKBG01 – vacuum cupping massager with 9 suction levels and 38–50 °C heat; our best-selling massager.

What else to look for

• Heat – comforting in cold weather and for tense muscles.
• Auto shut-off – a timer so the device doesn't run too long.
• Cordless or mains-powered – massage guns and the FIT2 Pulse pillow run on a rechargeable battery; for other models, the power supply is listed in the product specifications. The FIT2 8606 neck and shoulder massager comes with a 12 V car adapter, so you can use it on the road too.

Massagers are designed for relaxation, not medical treatment. If you have a health condition, a pacemaker or are pregnant, consult your doctor before use.

In short: which one is right for you?

• You do sport – a massage gun.
• You sit a lot – a neck and shoulder massager or a massage seat.
• You stand a lot – a foot or leg compression massager.
• A gift for parents or grandparents – a heated foot or joint massager. More ideas: gifts for her and gifts for him.

You can see most of our massagers at the FIT2 store in Vilnius Outlet (Vytauto Pociūno g. 8, 2nd floor) – it's worth checking availability of a specific model in advance.
