- Hi folks, I'm Bob Schrupp, physical therapist.
- Brad Heineck, physical therapist.
- We are the most famous
physical therapists on the internet.
- In our opinion, of course, Bob.
- Can they see that, Brad?
Today we're going to talk about is it time to fire
your massage therapist?
- What kind of question is that, Bob?
- I know, here we go again, Brad.
You know, we've got the yoga people mad at us,
we've got the chiropractors, and now,
we're going to add the massage therapists.
They're going to be mad at us, and you know,
they're hard-working people and they do a great job.
- They are, yes they do.
- By the way, what's the different between a
massage therapist and a masseuse?
Are they the same?
- Someone will comment and let us know.
- All right, someone will let us know.
By the way, if you're new to our channel, you want to ...
Go ahead, get your sign, Brad.
Yeah, yeah.
You want to sign up with us, subscribe to us,
because we provide videos on how to stay healthy, fit,
pain-free and we upload every day.
Also, you want to go to bobandrad, the giveaway section
because, hey, as luck would have it, we're giving away
a massage pillow today.
A bunch of them, actually.
And this is ...
You'll see why this is really a cool device.
We'll talk about it in just a minute,
but you can also go to
bobandbrad on Facebook, and it'll be pinned to the top
of the page. - Sure.
- If you want a short version of us,
go to Twitter and Instagram.
We could do a one-minute version of our program every day.
- That's incredulous.
- Yeah, that's ...
- What do you mean, we're going to give away
a bunch of them?
- I think they're giving away like three or five,
I can't remember, they don't ever let me know.
- Well, yeah, well, one way or another,
I wouldn't let you know either.
Here we go!
- So, this is a legit question, you know?
Is it time to get rid of your massage therapist and
try to use one of these devices?
I remember, I've been around long enough, Brad, that I
remember when massage devices
used to be somewhat ineffective.
I mean, I remember some of them just vibrate,
and they just didn't do the job.
- They didn't have the technology on how to produce them.
- Right, and the other thing that they were very expensive.
- Sure.
- And so they were not really for the average person.
They were kind of a cool thing
if you had a lot of money, I think.
- Right, right.
- So now, for a reasonable price, you can get a very decent
massage product at a very good price,
and that's why we like Renpho.
- Right.
- And we're not getting paid to say this about Renpho.
They sent us some of their products, and I liked them right
away because, again, the prices are really good, and the
products are really good quality.
- Right, they work well, and I'm not one to brag
about anything else, I really like it, but I just started
using this one, and I like this one, and I ...
That one, I like.
This one, I like as well.
It all depends on what you're looking for, but this is a ...
Well, let's go on, Bob.
- Yeah, we'll go right down the list here.
So, we've got the massage pillow, that's $26.99.
And the thing is, they often have coupons with this, so
that knocks it down maybe another four bucks,
just something you have to look on, on the links below.
That's a great one that you can put your chair, but you can
put it, you can use it on your neck, even, too.
You could put it up there, lean against it ...
- Sure, yeah.
It adjusts up and down, and these are actually heated.
- Right.
- So, that's another benefit. - Another bonus.
- Yep, so, I like this one.
For me, personally, my lower back really
appreciates this one.
- Sure.
- Yep.
- Here's the handheld one, it's actually a cordless.
What we like about this, it's actually got percussion.
We've got to find the right button.
So, it's actually percussing like this,
it's not just vibrating.
It's got a bunch of attachments for it, and this,
to be honest, in the clinic, now, this is what we use.
- Sure.
- I mean, we start off ...
Some people still like the hand massage--
- Sure.
- But a lot, we've had people that say they'd prefer this--
- Sure.
- To the actual hand massage.
- It goes deep, and that's the percussive ...
The advantage of that percussion movement versus the ...
- Right, vibration.
- Yep.
- So, at $39.99, again, you know, these were all ...
If you go look at some of the other competitors,
they're a hundred bucks.
- Right.
- And also, they're good, solid pieces of work.
- Sure.
- Next one, the Shiatsu neck and back massager.
So, this one's a little different.
You actually, you want to put it on, Brad?
- Sure.
- So, you put it on, you can actually
hook your arms into it ...
Yeah, like this.
And I wasn't a big fan of this one, but my wife really
likes this one, I don't know why.
She just says, "No, you can direct it, then,
"and you can put it where you want it to be,
"and you can rest your arms ..."
- I can tell you one thing, Bob.
It doesn't work good when you have your mic on.
So, if you've got a mic on ...
It does those upper traps nicely, but you can see
what it's doing to my mic.
- So, $39.99.
You know, again, it's got the arm sleeves.
My favorite is the foot massager, and I just ...
You know, this is one of those ...
All these, I think, run for 15 minutes,
and then you can re-fire them up again.
I've done this one, sometimes, four times in a row.
I mean, I just, it just ...
- You just keep pushing.
- I just keep pushing, and you know, it's not like
I'm really having that much foot pain or anything,
or foot discomfort, but it just feels good.
I mean, it's just ...
This one's 99 bucks.
- Look at this, I think this ...
I can get it right on my lower back.
- Oh, yeah!
- This is working really well.
- Yeah, and that's what she was trying to say, my wife,
when she, you know ...
- Oh, I see.
- That she can direct at different spots--
- Sure, I guess I wasn't listening.
- You want the full model, you ...
I don't know if you can see this thing's going right now,
but you got the little nodules.
This things going to work ...
You can set it up to hit the neck, mid back, lower back,
It's $149, again, they've got coupons, but really nice
device, if it's something that you want a full massage
every day or, you know, and that's the thing.
This thing, these aren't going to turn you down.
They aren't going to ...
You can ask them, and they're going to do it
every time you ask.
- Well, I usually can plug them in.
- Yeah, you know, you could ask your spouse for a massage
and you may not get it.
You most likely won't get it.
- I know the answer before I ask.
- Yeah, yeah, that's right, so ...
- Yes.
- So, anyway, I know this sounded like one big commercial,
but we really do like these devices.
- Right.
- I mean, you know, I say this many times,
but Brad and I get approached ...
Brad, you probably don't know this,
because you don't get the emails, three to five times
a day with products.
- Yeah, people who want us to put a product on our channel.
- Right.
- Every day, I get ...
This morning, before I came in, I had three emails
of people that wanted ...
- Right, so we only pick out the ones we really like.
- Well, that we like, and that we think
is a good price for you, so ...
- Sure, yep.
- All right, thanks everybody for watching.
