Wahl Deep Tissue Massager~ Review & Wahl Facebook Giveaway~

I received the best present in the mail the other day!!!  This was my early Mother's Day gift, Thanks to Wahl.   How did they know that I really needed this? 


Is your body sore?  Want a good massage?  Well...  Check this out! 

The Wahl Deep Tissue Massager is Awesome!!!   This will help relieve everyday aches and pains with the benefits of a therapeutic massage.  The variable speed dial adjusts the massage intensity to your desired preference.  This is a great feature, as in some parts of your body, you want a gentle feel while in other parts you want to dial it up and really feel it.  This is really powerful and works well. 



 You can customize your massage experience with the four unique attachments  The four finger flex attachment is one of my favorite.  It is soft with finger like-nodes the replicate a human touch.  The accupoint attachment targets deep into tissue and is great for  pinpointing concentrated areas.  The raised bump attachment, another favorite of mine, has a wide surface for the all over muscle massage.  The deep muscle attachment thumps smoothly as it creates a gentle, relaxing massage for an all over general body use. 

The unit is corded to provide maxium power.  The cord is fairly long and the massager has a long handle and is comfortable in your hands.  The nice thing is if your body is aching , you can use this yourself and massage that targeted spot. I prefer for my husband or kids to use this massager as it does relax you and makes your body feel better. 

Now, I know you want one!!!   
  
 The Wahl  Deep Tissue Massager sells for $59.99 or less, which is a great price.  These make the perfect gift for any deserving Mom!!
