My wife and I love to give each other massages but our hands are starting to get sore a lot cause we're getting old.. this helps a lot. Works best with a shirt, and doesn't feel as good as a real massage, but it is SO much easier on your hands.. you can do a whole hour with this thing and your hands feel ok. it's got little finger grooves on the top of the legs so if you want to just use one leg to dig into a sore muscle, you have a good grip. Seems well made and made in the USA!! Way to go PPC
