Product Information

Open-toe foot wrap: We don’t all have the same size feet, so the foot-wrap section of the leg massager should have an open toe rather than a closed toe. The open toe allows you to wrap your entire foot comfortably without having to jam your toes into a pointed tip. Designed to massage muscle and deep tissue, calf massagers come in several forms. The most basic calf massagers are muscle rollers. These require no electricity and simply knead your muscles as you roll them over your legs. Handheld massagers can be used on many body parts, including your calves — the design may be less specialized, but it’s also more versatile. There are also wearable and step-in calf massagers that wrap around the calf or the calf and foot together. These devices apply pressure via pneumatics or mechanical parts, and many are adjustable to accommodate different body sizes. With this in mind, we looked for at-home air-compression leg massagers that were most often recommended by people suffering from edema. There are three types of air-compression leg massagers: full-leg, calf and calf-foot. Other massagers focus more on the feet, which we tested and reviewed in our article about the best foot massager.

We like the removable and washable liners, which make cleaning straightforward. The adjustment bar rotates 360 degrees to help you find a comfortable angle, and the cuffs accommodate calves of up to 18 inches in diameter and feet of up to a men’s size 13. Vincent explained “I usually try one or two conventional massage sessions to see if the person gets relief. If not, then the person more than likely requires medical attention.” He thinks the new at-home compression devices are fantastic, and they can alleviate a person’s pain, but Vincent also emphasizes that an air-compression leg massager should be used in conjunction with a doctor’s care and not as a stand-alone treatment.We like that these cuffs can be adjusted to a range of angles to accommodate your feet or calves for maximum comfort during your massage. The heat function only adds to the relaxing experience. enough to improve our focus on exercise and work and have us sleep better. 5. Help Your Feet Recover Compression foot massagers are made of several cushions producing undulating motions due to the inner air circulation. The massage quality is determined by the number of cushions a massage machine features.

With simple-to-use controls and multiple intensity levels and operation modes, this is our favorite overall foot massager These high-quality wearable massagers fit a range of foot and calf sizes and promote circulation. They’re great for people who spend all day on their feet as well as those who sit at a desk all day. They can also help reduce post-workout soreness. All air-compression leg-massage devices have adjustable cuffs for the particular part of the body you want to work. A full-leg massager has cuffs for feet, calves and thighs. The cuffs are wrapped around your leg and secured with a Velcro flap. The main cuff (for a full-leg massager it’s the thigh wrap) has a rubber hose three feet in length, bisected at the ends, that connects to the remote control. A. Unfortunately, they do not. A 2015 study concluded that there is no connection between calf massages and increased range of motion. Q. Should I use a calf massager before or after my workout? The Renpho differs from the other two full-leg massagers we tested by having a separate wrap for thighs, which makes it much easier to get into. The wraps are made from a thin polyester-wrapped foam exterior and soft felt-like interior, which feels smooth against skin. Each wrap is clearly marked for right and left legs, as are the tubes that connect the wraps to the remote control.The Magic Makers has six intensity levels, the sixth being so tight that the wraps began coming undone. We tested all of its massage modes and noted that it doesn’t compress the calves as tightly as thighs and feet. One feature we did enjoy is Magic Makers’ heating element, which was soothing, especially when it’s programmed for massaging sore feet. CINCOM – Air Compression Calf Wraps Can you imagine a foot massager that you can apply not only to your feet but also to other body areas? Sounds weird? It really might sound strange and even funny until you use the PureMate foot massager and realise that everything is possible. The CINCOM calf wraps are marketed to people suffering from edema, but because the massage is localized to just the calves, it’s better for relieving sore muscles. The Velcro straps are easy to adjust according to the size of your calves or how snug you want the cuffs. And with two modes and three intensity levels, it’s easy to find the setting with the right amount of pressure. The circulation mode focuses on the feet, again compressing four times and increasing in intensity. This mode would be excellent for anyone suffering from poor circulation, particularly when used at the maximum intensity level. You will definitely need to test out each intensity level for yourself because we were surprised that the minimum level was actually quite firm.
