REVIEW: BONDIR – R2 ( Relieve + Recover ) Percussive Massager – (COSTCO $89)

I got this BONDIR – R2 Percussive Massager about 1 week ago and have been using it daily after my fitness workouts to loosen stiff muscles. It’s also sold online at Costco.com for $89 , Amazon ( https://amzn.to/3si2FXO ) and ShopSonix.com. I will do a quick unboxing and then go over the pros and cons of this unit.

​

PROS:
1. Best part is the extended handle for longer reach and more controlled for back muscle groups
2. Lighter than competitors at about 3 lbs.
3. USB C charging – NO big wall adaptor needed to lug around.
4. Comes with essential easy to clean attachments. The soft rubber heads are great for sensitive areas like the lower back and shins.

CONS:
1. Only 3 speed settings -It starts pretty fast. It maybe easier to start at a slower speed to get used to it.
2. Almost lost the lower rubber cover, there should be a place to store it when using the extended handle.

Overall, it’s a great package with all the attachment heads needed and compact enough to keep in the car or gym bag. Small case can fit in the trunk or under the car seat. I bring it with me on my jogs and workouts. The extension handle makes this percussion massager more useful than other handhelds, so you can have better reach and control when using it by yourself.

REVIEW: Costco HOMEDICS Air Compression BACK STRETCHING MAT – $149

I picked up this Homedics Air Compression Back Stretching Mat (https://amzn.to/3tmsRka ) at Costco for $149.

I wanted to decompress the pressure on my back after a long work day. I normally do a brisk fitness workout after work to stretch. Usually sleeping would decompress some pressure, however it was not enough. I was thinking of getting an inversion table ( https://amzn.to/30OdswI ) to hang from but didn’t have the space to store it, nor did I like hanging upside down.

Here is my quick review after using this for over 7 days every night.

Pros:

  • Convienent and easy to use, just plug in, lie down and use.
  • Space saving folds in half to store. Light weight.
  • 3 levels of intensity
  • 4 programs, each last about 15 minutes
  • I feel more relaxed after using it.

Cons:

The instruction manual is pretty worthless on how to use other than telling you to plug it in and not use more than 15 minutes at a time.

If you are short (under 5 feet), you need to experiment on where you position your overall body.

The decompressor only has 4 programs, which is simple and pretty much all I need, however it is very repetitive. Of the 4 programs, only 2 was effective for me.

It would have been good if there were heat elements to pre-heat and relax my muscles prior to the decompression motions.

Tips on how to use:

  • I either do a brief 10 minute stretching and aerobic workout or a hot shower to relax the muscles prior to using the decompressor. There are no heat elements on the decompressor.
  • I started with the lowest in the beginning and worked up to the higher levels over several days. I do only 15 minutes a day. Over a week of use and getting my body used to it, I extended it to 2 program sessions to relax.
  • I had to experiment on which position works the best in low intensity mode.

Is it Worth it?

Overall it doesn’t replace a trip to the Chiropractor or skilled massage therapist, but its works for me to relieve a tired back, especially when I can use it every day if I wanted to. It brings good value and definitely worth it for me.

REVIEW: Homedics Shiatsu Massage Cushion w/ Heat – 8 Year Long Term Review

I bought a Homedic Shiatsu Massage Cushion ( https://amzn.to/39WW3q0 )for my home about 8 years ago. This is a long term review. I basiclly used it after work about 2 hours, about 2-3 times a week for over 8 years. It provides full back and neck kneading and Shiatsu massages. I also have a ChiroGun Deep Tissue Percussion Muscle massager ( https://amzn.to/3o9V0c0 ) for after exercise and training. For cold winter nights working, I also have a Sunbeam XL Renue ( https://amzn.to/39eqIQd ) Heating Pad for Neck & Shoulder Pain Relief.

This Homedic Shiatsu massager is made of plastic leather and mesh , after 8 years the leather piping is worn but the cushions are still intact. The mesh fabric held up well and the mechanics still supply heat and great kneading pressure. You can set the massager to give you a full back and neck and shoulder massage. You can also program it to do spot massages for local muscle knots and soreness.

Unlike Percussion Muscle massagers ( https://amzn.to/3o9V0c0 ) which makes me nauseous after 5 minutes of localized percussion pounding, you can have this work heat and kneading action for over 30 to 60 minutes to totally feel relaxed.

It straps to almost any upright chair. I use it on my office mesh task chair (https://amzn.to/2MnEAyx ). However the elastic band has gone stretched after 2 years.
Overall this has paid for its self after using it for a year let alone 8 years.
