If you’re tired of waking up sore from a weird night’s sleep or need help recovering after a workout, a massage gun could be exactly what your muscles need. These compact devices can smooth out those aches and knots with precise pressure for way cheaper than the cost of a masseuse. While a decent one can run upwards of $100, we did some sleuthing and found a top-rated one from Homedics on Walmart’s website — and it’s currently on clearance at a deep, deep discount of only $20.63.
This nifty device has four interchangeable massage heads (for deep tissue penetration and soft pressure), three intensity settings, a four-hour battery and even has the power to heat up. It’s also apparently so good, one reviewer says that while it “doesn’t beat a personal massage at a spa, it’s the next best thing!” That’s high praise for such a small investment!
Cordless, rechargeable and quiet, this compact massage gun has a high-torque brushless motor for vibrating your body’s stiffness away. Operating it is as easy as powering it on and twisting it to set its intensity level, and swapping out its heads only requires pulling and pushing them in place. With up to a claimed four hours of battery life, this also makes a great travel companion, whether you’re relieving neck cramping from a flight or waking up those legs after a long drive. And maybe best of all, it charges via USB-C, so there is no need to carry around another one of those antiquated USB-A cables.
Reviewers rave about its different heads and its heat-up ability, and many say it’s excellent for recovery. “This body massage gun is wonderful,” says Block13. “I needed something to help my neck and shoulders to feel better after waking up in the morning. I tried it for three days and felt wonderful.”
Reach for what one reviewer says is “the best thing I’ve bought in years” while it’s on deep discount at Walmart, and save nearly $50 on this deep tissue companion. Read on for more promising reviews of this pressure-precise massager, and grab it now for only $21.
Read on for more promising reviews of the Homedics compact percussion body massager gun:
“Homemedics makes a great body massager! It was so small when I opened the box, that I was not sure it could handle my aches and pains. I was proven wrong on the first try! There are 4 different connectors to use, but my favorite is the flat one. You can see it in the picture. All in all, this doesn’t beat a personal massage at a spa, but it’s the next best thing!” — Naturelover4life
“The Homedics Active Fit Compact Percussion Deep Tissue Massage Gun is cordless and yet very powerful. It has three settings and a heat option. The massager gun comes with four different attachments for different areas of muscle groups and problems. You charge it up and it’s runtime is over 3 hours. It is small but mighty and super portable! I highly recommend this tool!” — Walmart Shopper
“This body massage gun is wonderful. I needed something to help my neck and shoulders to feel better after waking up in the morning. I tried it for three days and felt wonderful. It made me wonder why I waited so long to get it. It has four attachments that are just about for every part of your body. It also has a heating area. I also finally tried it on my legs and arms that usually hurt from things like walking and using the recumbent bike. Helps physical therapy also.” — Block13
“The Homedics Active Fit Compact Percussion Body Massage Gun, Cordless, Deep-Tissue Massager is an amazing massager! I was very impressed with how much power this smaller device has. I had been outside all day doing yard work and my back was feeling it. I had charged this up earlier in the day and couldn’t wait to use it. I laid down in bed early and my wife used the fork tip for about 20 minutes on my back and it felt amazing! What’s even more impressive is how good my back felt the next day. I don’t think i would have been moving around as much the next day if it wasn’t for this powerhouse. I look forward to trying all of the different tips that came with it. Buy this, you will not be disapointed!!” — Bigsirus
“What a tiny percussion massager. So small it just sits on the top of the draw. After trying all the attachment we like the ball the best. It’s pretty strong for its size. I need setting 3 and my wife 2. 3 is too strong for her. The battery last pretty long. Multiple days/~5 minute sessions when I wake up or come home from work. I really like the charging is with usb c instead an older connection. As for the heating, it’s ok. I can feel it on my shoulders but not anywhere else. Maybe that’s where it is needed.” — Rymo
“Homedics Active Fit Compact Percussion Body Massage Gun, Cordless, Deep-Tissue Massage is amazing! Not only is it easy to use it is simple to charge. I have looked at other tissue massagers to use forcsore muscles after exercising and for my husband after working out. I really like the size/weight of this body massager. The interchangeable massage heads couldn’t be easier to swap in and out. The heat feature is my absolute favorite…no more standing in the hot shower trying to target sore muscles. I honestly can’t say enough about the Homedics Active Fit Compact Percussion Body Massage Gun, Cordless, Deep-Tissue Massager EXCEPT grab one―you won’t regret it!!” — 19nettie67
