just spend the cash on a professional to do the work my mums got one that does cover your neck but it feels like someone wants to kill you

I already see a sports physio and have the odd neck/shoulder massage, I just thought these Homedic things might be good.. or not lol

I got one of the Homedics ones for my missus at chrimbo. This one in fact:

I was sceptical but it's pretty good. The back bits move up/down, in/out as they massage, and they are heated. But I did find the neck/shoulder massager was too low for my neck and the adjustment doesn't go far enough to reach it.

Not sure it is any substitute for a proper physio, but it certainly helps with a bit of basic relaxation.
