It can be painful. I don' t use it because it is supposed to relax, not to irritate.Feeling pain is mostly irritating

I think the low setting is best for starting with, until you think you can go to a higher setting.

It has number so you can use 1-3 for gentle tapping and vibrating but if you use greater number it is tapped very hard. I use usually 1-6 depending upon where I use it. In my neck and back area I use only 3. Like in lower back and hip I use 5-6. I never used number 7-10 .

This is not light, weights about 4 pounds. If you are looking for a light massager you can try the one from Panasonic. This one is more appropriate for deep tissue.

Jennifer.....I have been using it as a Day & Night cream under my makeup foundation for a year now. I tend to have sensitive skin and this did not inflame my skin. I do believe it has softened my existing wrinkles......I am 65. It sits lightly on the skin.....and if you put it on and lay down for a few minutes, like me, you may actually feel it tightening.

There is something like 4000 rpm so it is strong (similar to a dentist cleaning tool), however you can adjust the settings to your preference. There are 5 choices: regular, deep clean which is a longer setting, feather light which is good for sensitive gums, polishing which is most similar to the dentist office, and massage which changes speed and pressure for gums and teeth. You can also purchase different brushheads such as regular, sensitive gums, deep clean/floss action. If you use the Oral B brand, the brush head fits perfect and there is no excess noise or vibration, but if you use the generics I notice this does happen more and it is annoying, so we go with the brand.

I just tried it out, feels pretty good. I think I applied too much pressure on the arches of my feet, they're a little achy, but I liked the massage itself so I think I'll be using it on my feet now too. It's the best for my shoulders & neck though.

very strong foot air bag massage, maybe to strong for a lot of people even after intensity adjustment which does not work well for the air bags

No, it is a low-med vibration; I would try a shiatsu massager that is also available from amazon.

This is a percussion massager and as such may be a bit too hard on the head. Recommend a kneading massager.

I used this on my legs and perhaps I am sensitive as it hurt yet I did not freeze the area first. I passed onto my mom and she loves it though. I am not sure how it would feel on your face yet my mom said she had no hair for two weeks.

Well I'm not sure how soft a massage pillow is but the hole is big enough for your face to go through. I think it might be uncomfortable after a while because of how firm it is.

I don't think it is strong in an offensive way. It's warm, an unusual. You can always just put on a tiny amount, if you don't like it too strong.

I've gotten different whiteners from dentists in the past. This is comparable. I was fine on the ones I had gotten from my dentists in the past. But this was extremely strong. I wore them about 8 hours while sleeping. My upper teeth were a little sensitive for a day or two but my bottom teeth were EXTREMELY sensitive for close to a week. So, I only use this on my upper teeth and only for an or two while I'm awake.

This massager is heavy and not easily held behind you. I bought this product, but my wife does not like to use it.
