Can the massager be used without the heat setting or is heat automatically turned on?Are there multiple or just 1 setting for the massage?

There are two settings. The massager kneads one direction without heat, and the other with heat. You can turn it upside to essentially reverse the direction, while maintaining whichever you prefer (heat or no heat). The heat is very mild. They also make a version of this without heat at all, if you never want the heat.

This massager has 2 settings...the first setting is with heat and the 2nd without. You should see that the first setting shows a single bar which heats the massager....then you'll see the other has 2 bars...this is used without heat....just press back and forth between the 2 to your desired setting...when the 2nd setting is used you will not see the infrared light showing...Hope this helps.....

You can have it without the heat as well.This travel massager was one of the best 40 dollar purchases ever It is very strong though so just lean into it less at first . I don't know if I mentioned it but you can use it in a wall or car charger it has both attachments

Yes, should be fine. It has 3 speeds. But the penetration is probably about the same on all three levels. I use the first level most of the time going back and forth slowly over area. If you stay a long time in area, can be sore later, similar to after having a massage therapist working on a specific area Drinking a lot of water helps flush toxins released from massage. them I have not found anything better. This is the 3rd one I have bought. They seem to only last a few years. The first one stopped after a few years. the second one started becoming noisy and I couldn't figure out why. I gave it to my daughter who was fine with that and bought the 3rd one. If it is on too long (red light comes on), the motor gets hot it will automatically shut down until it cools off. Once cooled down you unplug it and the red light goes off and it works fine again. I have fallen asleep using it so the auto shut off it a good thing, protects itself (and me). I don't know how long it takes to get too hot, perhaps a hr or more. I have never found anything better. The professional full size one may be a little better but someone else has to use it on you, that's the one massage/physical therapist use. I am not sure it is any stronger but it is made to be used by a third party, which are not always available. Any area you can reach, you can do with this machine. Obviously, feels better if you can get your partner to use it on your back as they can get areas you miss. Obviously, you wouldn't want to go over the spine or any bony parts but great on the muscles. Hope that helps.

Yes. But the massager doesn't really feel good. The moving parts are too close together, so it pinches more than massages. I would not buy another one like it.

I got it for my gf. She said there is no heating options. Only low medium high massage.

No, this massager seems to have very good power, even when pressure is applied. My only issue with this massager, is that I wish the heat was a little more prevalent. But this is a very minor issue considering how pleased I am with this product overall.

Yes...it vibrates...however, when I saw all these options I thought it was more massage options, possibly different massages, but it basically vibrates at like 4 speeds, and you can choose the vibrating area...that's the options...mine never leaves the highest setting and the person I bought it for said it wasn't at all what they thought it would be

This hand held mini-massager is great on sore muscles! You do not have to hold the button down to turn the vibration on. Just press the button and it is on. When finished, just press the button down and it turns off. It is made very well and sturdy. The vibration is relaxing and it is pretty quiet. Several family members have purchased this item.

It activates the kneading motion of the rollers that under the feet. You can turn it off to just have the vibration and air pressure but I prefer to keep the kneading action for the 15 mins that I do the massage.

no, you need the neck massager, its a separate unit; http://www.amazon.com/HoMedics-NMS-350-Shiatsu-Massager-Vibration/dp/B002QV01LO/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1388196863&sr=8-3&keywords=heated+neck+massager

No there is no heat. It mimics the motions that massage therapists learn in massage school.The nice thing about the Kneading Massager is that you have total control over the intensity of the massage.All About Health Network Professional Massage Therapist

Not sure what you are asking. I am guessing your question. Do you have to buy the unit to use the massage that comes with it? Yes.

Yes, you can turn the massage off and just use the heater. That is the benefit of the product because not only does it heal but it also gives you options. Great buy!!

yes you can. There's a separate button for heating. It doesn't get as hot as I like it, but may suit you. Please be aware that I am not recommending this product. I wrote a negative review about its quality. It stopped "spinning" 3 weeks after I first purchased it. Of course I called because it was still under warranty. They replaced it BUT I HAD TO PAY THE SHIPPING to return the non-functional unit. The second one has stopped working after ~ six months. It's still under warranty, but they said I would still have to pay the shipping. I'm not replacing it and gave it a bad review. It's too bad. I really enjoyed my home-made lattes. But their return policy is wrong and i won't support them. More than you asked, but thought you should know. hope it helps.

I imagine you can install the massager without box springs, however, it might be really noisy! Perhaps cushioning the vibrating pods with soft pads underneath could reduce the noise??? Good luck!

Hi James, yes you can run the rollers without the heat being turned on. Please let me know if I can be of further help I don't mind answering questions about the machine.
