All about Planta massage pillows

A considerable number of people experience fatigue, which is the result of long and similar work. To relax and enjoy yourself after a hard day, there are massage pillows. Planta is one of the manufacturers of such devices.

The advantages of Planta massage pillows apply to the entire range as a whole. First of all, it is mobility. Lightweight and compact, you can take these devices with you wherever you go - to work, on a trip by car, because they can be carried in a bag.

Another advantage is design... It is very aesthetic and can serve not only as a massager, but also as an element of the interior of a room. The main structure of the massager and all its mechanisms are located inside, and the outer part is in a case. He's pretty soft, so pleasant sensation on contact with skin.

An important plus is the presence of heating, which is carried out by means of infrared radiation. This feature is built into the massager for several reasons. The first of them is to increase the efficiency of work, since warming up the muscles contributes to the rapid acceleration of blood. Since the massage cushions are intended to replace real massage, heating also allows you to receive the heat that is transmitted by human hands.

If we compare Planta pillows with products from other manufacturers, the advantage is the low price. It is, indeed, affordable, due to which a potential buyer has more opportunities to purchase devices. The main disadvantage is the small assortment. At the moment, the lineup includes 4 models, one of which is out of stock. Therefore, there is no need to say that the buyer has a wide choice.

Such devices have a therapeutic effect, but sometimes they may not help, but only harm. The main indications of massage pillows are for people with increased fatigue, which can be caused by its accumulation in different parts of the body - back, arms, abdomen, thighs and other parts of the body. These devices can help reduce stress and improve well-being. Thanks to the work of the massage rollers, you can relieve mild pain that occurs with bruises, bruises and other types of minor injuries. The same applies to problems with nerve endings.

Even without any injuries or painful sensations, the massage pillow simply allows you to relax thanks to its principle of operation... But there are also contraindications, which are most often indicated in the instructions. The documentation provides a list of situations in which the use of massagers is undesirable or strictly prohibited. For example, the impact of a pillow can negatively affect the fetus, therefore the use of the device is not recommended for pregnant women. This includes the use of a pacemaker, ventilators, as well as portable medical devices, the work of which may be interrupted due to the effects of the vibrating massager mechanisms.

Another group of contraindications is the presence of diseases such as flu, fever, hepatitis, varicose veins, thrombosis, diabetes, inflammation, prolapse of intervertebral discs. Exposure to vibration in this case can aggravate the condition of the disease. There are contraindications associated with physical injuries: burns, tumors, hematomas, open wounds. Doctors prohibit the use of massagers during the recovery and rehabilitation of the body after operations. Traumatologists do not recommend such devices for the treatment of joints, spine, head and other places that are sensitive to vibrations.

If after some time of device operation you start to feel pain and other unpleasant sensations, turn off the massager and consult a doctor. It is important to understand that vibratory pads are a prophylaxis, not a remedy for health problems. It should also be borne in mind that the heating function, carried out by means of infrared technology, is contraindicated for people who are sensitive to heat sources.

Multifunctional pillow with a convenient control system. It is expressed by four buttons that allow you to use the capabilities of the device. The first is responsible for quickly turning on and off. You don't have to wait for the pillow to completely stop working. Everything happens very quickly and allows you to complete the massage session in one moment.

The second button is equally important, as it can be used to change the direction of rotation of the rollers. Typically, this feature is used when changing the location of the pillow. The third changes the rotation speed and intensity, which in this model are expressed in 3 types. The last button activates the infrared effect to enhance the massage effect.

Mobility and convenience allow Planta MP-015 to be used in the car, and fastening is carried out thanks to the back Velcro strap. The improved roller mechanism has increased the efficiency of the massage compared to the previous model MP-012.This pillow can be applied to many parts of the body, including problem areas where muscle tension arises and circulation is needed.

The removable cover is made of durable synthetics. There are two adapters - one for 220 V, the other for 12 V, which allows you to charge this massage pillow from the car cigarette lighter.

Another model, the characteristic feature of which is the presence of 4 massage heads. Now they can be used to massage Shiatsu, known for its effectiveness in relieving tension from many parts of the body. The kneading action increases the movement of blood and helps relieve minor pain. Like the entire Planta range, this pillow is ergonomically shaped, lightweight and small in size. There is an auto-shutdown system that is triggered after 15 minutes of device operation.

The control system has been simplified and consists of only two buttons, each of which combines not one, but two functions. The first is responsible for turning the vibration massager on and off, as well as activating the infrared heating function. The second one gives the user the ability to change the direction and speed of rotation of the rollers. Such a modified system is more convenient, as it allows for faster control and takes up less space on the cushion itself. The speed is expressed in 3 modes. The removable cover is made of soft plush, pleasant to the touch.

Outwardly, it does not differ in anything special from its predecessors. The control system is the same as that of the MP-015, namely: in 4 buttons. The presence of a second 12 V adapter allows this model to be used in a car. There is a function with the Shiatsu massage technique mode. The heads have a roller mechanism that acts on the acupuncture points. The main advantage of the model is the improved performance, due to which the device increases efficiency.

The massage process becomes more sensitive and hard, which results in a better effect.

Reviews are mostly positive. Consumers have commented on the effectiveness of Planta massage pillows, which help to relax stressed parts of the body when traveling and after a hard work day.

Simple operation is considered a plus, because these devices can be easily charged both through the outlet and through the cigarette lighter in the car. Most often, vibratory massagers are used for the neck and back, which become numb in a sitting position. According to buyers, there are no significant drawbacks.
