Tension and soreness don't wait for a convenient moment to arise, and the Philips Massage Shawl tackles the major issues with most massagers—they tend to be bulky, corded, or too awkward to bring along when on-the-go relief is needed. To make matters worse, the frustration of lugging around an oversized device, hunting for an outlet, or settling for a poorly powered travel version that barely makes a difference in one's comfort only adds to the stress meant to be alleviated. This portable, wearable massage solution offers a different experience with an extended open-shoulder strap design, a fully electroplated body for ease of cleaning, and highly resilient and hypoallergenic titanium massage heads.
The Philips Massage Shawl integrates a warming shoulder and neck function, and even supports voice prompts for hands-free convenience.
