Our Picks: How we picked the best body massagers in India
Find out how we selected and ranked the products.
The most significant of the features to look at is the massager types and what are the exact use cases of a massager. So you can confirm that the massager will serve the purpose for you. Few of the common massager types include:
Vibrating massagers
Infra-red massagers
Acupressure massagers
a) Vibrating Massagers
If you're considering buying a hand-held massager, most of them would have the vibrating mode embedded in them. These hand-held massagers are quite compact and they're easy to store when not in use.
The handheld massagers feature a motor that vibrates and this is often how the massagers work to give you a vibrating massage. The massager works by shaking the muscle of the body, which successively shakes the tissues and regulates the blood circulation. Moreover, this action also prevents frequent cramps and sprain.
b) Infrared Massagers
Vibrating massagers aren’t as dynamic as other massagers. People who experience cramps or muscles pull can choose the infrared massagers. These massagers are available in a wide variety of shapes and sizes but the technology remains the same for the treatment.
Infrared massagers deploy the use of infrared heat in order to provide a nice and warm effect to the muscles of the affected area you choose to massage. The heat is absorbed by the body relaxing the affected and surrounding muscles and regulates the blood circulation, hence relieving the pain.
c) Acupressure massagers
The acupressure massagers work on the pressure points on foot as they are referred to as the part of the body where all the nerves of the body end.
Some acupressure massagers contain a head to exert pressure on the acupressure points.

The shape should be the next best thing in your massager as this plays a major role in determining the reach of the massager across the body and also it is an important usability factor. Moreover, a massager with a bigger handle enhances your convenience while massaging and manoeuvring below your shoulders. It's recommended to get an ergonomically shaped massager for better flexibility.

Since most electric body massagers are the ones that are needed to be handheld all the time while massaging your body, hence the weight of the massager becomes an important factor to buy a massager. The massager should be lightweight yet solid, so it can be easily used for the massaging for longer durations.

Ease of use is another significant factor to think about before you purchase a body massager. Right from the product power controls to the massager movements, everything needs to be considered for deriving better value. If the user is an elderly person, it is of no use to get a complex massager with too many high-end functions that are difficult to understand for them. So the choice should be subjective, user-based and also need-based.

Never use an electric massager on swelling. Swellings can be due to an insect bite or factors like water retention in organs etc. Hence an uninformed usage of massagers over the swelling areas may worsen things for you.
