This is the device that applies gentle, soothing massage to both the top and bottom of the hand. Similar to hand reflexology, it compresses trigger points on the palm and back of hand using a mechanical air pressure system that kneads the hand for a comfortable, spa-like massage. A team of physical therapists found the massager to have potential to help relieve pain and discomfort in the hands; its soothing rhythm helps to relieve the tension, stress, and fatigue associated with extended keyboard and mouse usage. After a hand is inserted into the device's soft polyester interior, a push of a button begins a 5-, 10-, or 15-minute session at one of four pressure levels. It can also provide far infrared heat during sessions to promote better circulation. Requires four AA batteries. 10 1/4" L x 7 3/4" W x 9 3/4" D. (2 3/4 lbs.)

I love this hand massager. I have arthritis in my hands, and I love a hand massage that squeezes my hand. This hand massager does the trick. It has 3 levels of pressure. The highest level is very strong, and that's the level that relieves my discomfort. This was an excellent buy for the money. I use it anytime my hands start to ache. They feel so much better after a 15 massage. I would recommend this to a friend. Especially one with arthritis.

I work on a computer and love to have my hands massaged. Since this item is a reflexology massage, I wasn't quite sure what to expect. The pressure was more like a hard squeeze all over your hand which isn't what I was looking for. I was hoping for something that is more like the shiatsu massager but for the hands. I tried it for 3 days and decided it wasn't really doing anything for me.I let two other people try it that have worse issues with their hands (one has rheumatoid arthritis in her hands)and it wasn't beneficial for them either. However, we all agreed that we did wish the pocket you put your hand in was deep enough that your wrist was penetrated by the pressure. The one with arthritis said she probably would buy one if it did.The product does come with a plug so you don't have to run off batteries if you don't want to. Hammacher does make it very easy for you to return the product which I did choose to do.

Hand Saver

Bought this for my mother who has extreme arthritis. She uses it daily and feels that it really makes a difference. She panicked when she thought it stopped working, but it was only a battery that needed replacing. She said that it really works.

Very good
By Magdalena

I have to use release the air pressing the release button often to make the pressure not so strong. The 10 minutes function is my favorite and it seems the easiest on my hands. The hands are very relaxed afterwards.
Very strong

Very strong pressure. The batteries work OK, but the unit works much better when plugged in using the supllied AC power converter.
Hand Massager

I hoped it would help with Carpel Tunnel symptoms. It doesn't. Basically, this gizmo squeezes your hand, and I don't find it particularly soothing. So I'm not sure what's gained by using it.
Doesn't help trigger finger
By Tina

This product is very easy to use, however, after using it 3 times a day for 2 weeks, it has not helped with my trigger finger.
Works for me
By gezpez

Recommended by a friend. Hands have been painful and swollen. I use this machine 2x day and I have noticed a great improvement. No heat though - that is a disappointment, but still worth the purchase. Really like the portability, can use anywhere.
I would not buy this product again.

Wonderful device for hands!
By SCI Lady
from Flemington, NJ
I have almost constant pain and partial swelling in my right hand after spinal cord injury. My hand is very sensitive to cold, and this unit allows me to adjust the level of pressure and heat used in the massage. You can set timer for 5, 10 or 15 minutes. It uses a small air compressor so it is a bit noisy but I use it when sitting on couch and just put blanket over me and the unit!
