This nurse-approved foot massager is at a record low — get it by Xmas with Prime
'Best I have ever used,' said one RN: Order soon to gift this spa-like, heated tootsie-soother to someone who deserves it (don't forget yourself).
Got sore feet from holiday shopping? Want to give the gift of relaxation this season? Either way, the Cloud Massage Shiatsu Foot Massager is ready to knead and relax stressed, seized-up muscles and joints. Powerful, versatile and gentle when it needs to be, it's like treating your tootsies to a spa day from the comfort of your living room. It's also $80 off with a Lightning Deal, so grab one for you and one for a special someone on your list ASAP. You'll need Amazon Prime to get it by Dec. 25.
Offering rolling massage and compression, this therapeutic machine can be adjusted to the angle you need — it can even lie flat. The heat is just icing on the cake.
Why is it a good deal? 💰
Getting an on-demand personal massager isn't cheap, but you'll score nearly 30% off with this discount. (We've yet to see it dip lower than it is now.) You'll also save big on spa treatments in the long run — no need to tip your masseuse bot, of course.
Why do I need this? 🤔
Got someone on your holiday list who could use a little R&R? Skip the spa gift card and give them an at-home relaxation session that’s always available on-demand. The Cloud Massage Shiatsu Foot Massager has an adjustable base to work out the kinks in tired feet or calves in minutes. Customize the level of pressure, from gentle to strong, and choose from five settings: There's rolling massage, compression massage, simple heat therapy, a sway function and quiet mode.
Massage does more than just relieve workday aches and pains; it's also a powerful tool to help relieve symptoms of chronic conditions like plantar fasciitis, diabetes and neuropathy. If they suffer from any of these, they may be extra grateful for this thoughtful gift.
And if the giftee is yourself, well, no judgment here! Everyone deserves this relaxing treat.
What reviewers say 💬
This little wonder has garnered 11,000-plus five-star ratings from relaxed and relieved Amazon shoppers.
Pros 👍
"Good God, where has this thing been all my life? I wish I'd bought it sooner," said one reviewer. "I look forward to coming home and getting my feet rubbed and massaged with heat while I'm eating dinner or watching TV."
"Got this amazing bad boy a couple [of] days ago and I am fully addicted!" raved another five-star fan. "The shiatsu/sway/heat combo is my fave! I like it for the feet and the calves, but the foot benefits stand out."
Nurses who spend long days on their feet rave about it too. Said one, "This is the best foot massager I have ever used ... I have other massagers that I have used and they do not work nearly as well as this one. Applies the perfect amount of pressure. It will occasionally hurt, but in a good way. My feet always feel better after each use."
"This will make you forget all about your painful feet!" said another. "Just be sure to not [go] too high on the settings and you will be in heaven! Best 'me' purchase of 2021 for this tired RN! I can come off of a long 12-hour shift and place my aching feet in the heated massager."
Cons 👎
Some shoppers say the massage is a little too intense, but it's important to note that the brand suggests starting at the lightest pressure setting and working your way up to where you're comfortable.
"This would be better if the shiatsu ball things were a more rubbery material because this thing rubs hard," said one buyer. "My girlfriend used it and told me she had to turn it off because it felt like it was gonna break her bones. That said, I like it a lot. ... I do recommend getting this, but be warned! It will hurt if you're not careful."
"I really, really love that you can massage your ankles with this unit. I have fluid retention and it is very helpful," said one four-star reviewer, before adding, "But the massager is almost painful in some functions, so I am not able to give it a perfect rating."
Prefer black? It's not on sale for quite as low (and arrives after Christmas), but you'll still save nearly 50 bucks.
And for your hands...
When it comes to massages, our feet, backs and shoulders get all the love — but our hardworking hands deserve some attention too. This soothing gizmo uses heat and compression to help relieve tension. (Note: It arrives after Dec. 25.)
If you have Amazon Prime, you’ll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $35 or more.)
