Handheld Metal Massagers

'Selfkaire' Creates Surgical Steel Massage Tools for the Face & Body

— January 30, 2019 — Lifestyle
With a focus on equipping consumers with tools for self-care and body health positivity, 'Selfkaire' offers surgical steel massage tools for the face and body. These metal tools feature prongs that take inspiration from acupressure and specifically target toxicity in the soft tissue.

The Kairetool, which is suited to all skin types and offered in different styles and finishes, is said to provide an "effective innovation on existing facial rollers," helping with diminish puffiness to and provide post-workout relief.

With many consumers interested in manual massage tools—like stone facial rollers and sculpted gua sha tools that revive ancient Chinese beauty rituals—for boosting circulating and sculpting the contours of the face, these kinds of self-care tools offer a targeted way to address problem areas on the face and body.
Trend Themes
1. Personalized Self-massage - There is an opportunity for innovation and customization in the market for personal self-massage tools that target specific issues.
2. Metal Massagers - Metal massagers are becoming increasingly popular as a more durable and eco-friendly alternative to plastic massagers.
3. Acupressure-inspired Tools - Acupressure-inspired massage tools offer a natural and effective way to target toxicity in the soft tissue and revitalize skin.
Industry Implications
1. Beauty - The beauty industry could integrate surgical steel massage tools into skin care and anti-aging product lines, helping consumers achieve a more youthful appearance through natural and effective means.
2. Health and Wellness - The health and wellness industry can benefit from offering personalized self-massage tools that target specific health issues and provide a cost-effective and convenient alternative to professional massages.
3. Fitness - Fitness professionals can market metal massagers and acupressure-inspired massage tools as post-workout recovery tools that help reduce muscle soreness and inflammation.
