LifePro Legra Hand Massager with Heat and Compression - Finger, Wrist, and Palm Massager with 5 Modes - Pressure Point Therapy for Sensitive Hands, Relaxation, and Comfort

Not sure if it works as described

So far I love it! It's FSA/HSA eligible. Per the instructions, I let it fully charge for min 4hrs before use. I literally just ran it for 4 cycles trying out the first 3 modes. P3 on L3 was boarding line painful, but only around the edge of my arm where the device ends. I'm assuming there's a harder price there or something. There is also a heat option and vibration option with 2 settings. Vibration setting is either a pulse or constant vibration. There are no roller balls for running style massage. Instead, you have hydraulic pressure in multiple settings.

This is not a typical massager, although it does have some functioning that resembles of massage. Its pressurizing device with blunt plastic needle like points (acupuncture) that has 3 focus areas, wrist - palm - fingers. It inflates and deflates in different patterns and forces throughout your hand (at times those wave patterns does feels like someone is actually massaging your hand). At the first use it may feel slightly panful or uncomfortable because you never had anything like this done to your hand, but after a few sessions it becomes enjoyable and relaxing. I didn't like it much and was skeptical after the first use but now I use daily and actually enjoy it. The device interior space is just big enough for Large size hands, at first I thought it was too small for my large hands, but now I understand how it operates and am pleased with it. There is a way to move your hand further in or out of the device and change up pressure focus areas (sometimes I want more focus on my long fingers), there is slight room to spread or reposition the fingers. The heater function is nice but it does drain the battery faster so I skip it most of the time. The hand placed in a tight space itself accumulates plenty of heat. 5 modes offers variety (I've included picture from the manual with description). I know many customers have requested more detailed info on these modes so I will try to explain. Modes 1 & 2 are the most popular and cover the whole hand in various patterns top to bottom, my personal fav is #2. Mode 3 covers wrist and palm with MAX force continuously with very brief pressure release intervals - it can get very intense. Mode 4 it only works focused on your wrist. Mode 5 covers palm and wrist (its very similar experience to 1&2). 5 levels of intensity does come handy, at first I could barely handle 1 or 2, now days I always use the max level 5. Battery lasts long time, remember heating device will drain the battery much faster. To check the battery level you can see it while using it or plug in charger and it will show you more accurately. Battery level indicator can periodically drop lower during intense pressure points but that's normal and it bounces back up when the pressure released. Device does come with automatic 15 minute shut off timer which is very convenient.

I cant charge it as the power out let is not for Australia.

After having it for a few days now & being able to use it daily it seems to work pretty good at helping me with my pain. I'm just working on getting things just right so it doesn't cause more pain when I'm hurting. I feel as though there are multiple options/levels of intensity & function that it still feels like a higher intensity or pressure sometimes even on the lowest setting, while other times not as strong. It just seems to not be quite as consistent as would be desirable but not necessarily a game changer. Overall I think it is a good device in helping relive aches, pain, & stiffness in the hands & wrists with arthritis, carpal tunnel, fatigue, & general pain in hands. That being said, I think there could be improvements made however; -Function: If the ball/bubble in the middle could shift for a left/right setup like they do back & forth/up & down in chair & other massagers to have a slightly more accurate result. -Heat: I understand the reasons for not having a 2nd/warmer heat level however, if you are going to have heat, do it right & so you can make as many customers as you can happy. Heating pads are never perfect or a sure bet but people buy them for the relive they can provide despite that & I've never seen a heating pad or device stop at level one. I realize that heat is only one part of what the device does but I feel like I may have times where I may only want heat & vibration or even just heat. I think as many customers have said it would have be nice to have that option. If you have the capabilities to do so I would recommend it. It seems like a pain to have to also use a heating pad/pack to get relief with the heat as well. - Maintainance: I think this product should come with it's own cleaning cloth. The manual says the device should be wiped down inside & out after each use but I'm not sure what I should use. For the outside it seems as though a paper towel or cleaning cloth would suffice but I don't want to use anything that could create lint inside which is why I also worry about using a regular wash cloth or sponge. Maybe in the future the middle compartment could detach or top could open up withba release button for cleaning with a damp cloth & the slide/click back in place or close. - Storage & travel bag: I appreciated the thickness & sturdiness of the bag for protection, storage & travel, the fabric itself may as well be a sticky sheet because it pulls & collects dust, lint, hair etc. from the air like a magnet. For the short time I've had the product, it looks as though I have drug the bag all across my floor & back. The fabric being black & showing everything is not helpful either but the main problem is the fabric itself. I may end up having to get a bag for the bag or just another bag all-together which seems silly & a waste where you have provided one. -The battery; I don't know if you have the option or ability to increase the battery, but if I do 2 sessions on each hand throughout the day the battery will need to be charged again. That means I have to create a dedicated space for it to charge once a day on most days so it can be put away fully charged for when I need it, rather then once or twice a week maybe where I can plug it in here or there. It could help maybe. If you could make it possible to use the device while it is plugged in &/or provide a lightning charge cord. Overall I think you have a good product that could be a better product with a few tweeking & improvements.
