This could be giving you a back or neck massage right now

Let's check it out. Dave Taylor here, and I'm checking out this
0:14
This is the Terralax TE 9916 back massager. And as you can see, it's a pretty slick little device
0:22
It is small. It is portable. It is light. It comes with multiple power sources
0:28
but most importantly, it gives you a really nice massage. Now, I can put this on my back, and I can guarantee it's going to feel really nice
0:37
or just put your neck right here and let it give you a little neck massage
0:42
All very nice. But let me tell you about it. It comes with four different modes, and I'm going to switch
0:48
I'll let you see a little close-up. So when the balls are red, you're also getting heat, and you can choose direction
0:55
but every 60 seconds it's going to change direction. and you can also turn off the heat if you prefer to do that
1:03
Now, one of the things to know is that this is a breathable mesh
1:07
So it doesn't get like hot and sweaty, which some do, which is just bad design
1:13
And you can see it's an ergonomic shape. So it works really well for your lower back and for your neck
1:21
And one thing I definitely want to note is that it has a nice strap on it
1:25
So I find that I can put the strap around. my chair and then I can just have it in the right position and just sit and enjoy it Very nice Now it comes with two different power sources Let me unplug this and I just put it aside for a moment So this one I will temporarily
1:45
unplug it. So this is the AC power source. So it just plugs into a standard American wall outlet
1:53
And it is long enough that you can actually have some flexibility, but probably like me, you'll want to have an extension cord so you
2:02
can have it in your favorite chair, even though you might not have a power outlet right there
2:07
What makes this particularly interesting is it also comes with a 12-volt car power source
2:13
So you can also use this in a car. Now, I'm going to make a really strong recommendation that you pull over, set this up, and then get back on the road
2:24
Don't try to get this all set up while you're driving. That would not be safe
2:28
But you can do that, and it's certainly easy to reach around this option
2:32
off button is really easy to work with. You can reach around, turn it on, get it to the setting you want
2:37
and then maybe after five or ten minutes you can turn it off, or you can just wait because it has an
2:43
auto turn off, auto shut off after 15 minutes. It also has a heat sensing system, so if it starts
2:49
to overheat, it'll turn off there too. Comes with a manual. It does not come with any sort of
2:55
transport or bag or anything like that, so it's pretty much like this. And you can see
3:02
the power is pretty well designed and it just plugs in if I want to go back to my
3:07
wall outlet then I just find the end plug it in plug this into a power source Again I think you going to find that extension cord is going to be your friend
3:21
And now I'm ready to go, and literally all the controls you have are just this one button
3:27
So all I have to do is push, and it's on, and it's in heat mode, and it's ready to rock and roll
3:35
Now, this is a Shiazu style massage, and it can do deep teeth
3:39
tissue needing depending on how you are sitting against it or laying against it
3:44
And again, you can lay on your bed and slip this underneath your back, for example
3:49
and really just sort of get a pretty serious massage. It is very pleasant
3:55
It is very relaxing. It's not super hot. I didn't find that there was a significant amount of heat, but it's pleasant
4:03
So if you are in a colder environment, like in your car, because you have your AC turned up or something
4:08
This is a nice option and that's really everything I got. So dimensions wise, let me just say
4:14
Let me let's turn this off so there's the other direction There's the no heat mode and then there's off and this is 12 inches by seven inches by four inches thick
4:28
And it's three pounds it is about the weight of a hard back book really easy very portable
4:34
You can even use the strap to carry it though I think I would probably
4:38
be more likely to hold it by one or both sides. And that's everything
4:43
It a nice simple solution to a legitimate problem And we all spend way too much time sitting And this is the kind of device that can really help your body even if you good at like stretching and getting up still after a day of
4:58
working or a day of teaching or a day of zoom then something like this can be a real life saver so let me
5:06
talk about the price but before we get there i'm going to ask if you could subscribe to my channel a click
5:11
or a tap on that subscribe button and we're connected how easy is that great this
5:16
Turn it back on. This is the Terralax TE 9916 back massager, and it's 4399 at p.orgia.com
5:30
And I got to say that is money well spent, whether you're going to use it for your neck
5:35
or whether you're going to use it for your lower back, or of course, you can use it really for anywhere
5:40
If you have a, you know, a bicep that's just really achy
5:43
Yeah, you're getting a massage. I'm definitely my arm's getting the massage right there
5:49
So it is super flexible and easy to work with, easy to transport to a friend's house or a family member, definitely one to check out
5:59
And with that, I think I am going to go back to laying down and let this work on my neck a little bit
6:04
So I'll hope to catch you in my next video
