Power
The power of the motor installed in the vibratory massager. The more powerful the engine, the more intense the impact can be and the more speeds and programs can be provided in the device. However, high power in itself does not necessarily mean an abundance of possibilities. In addition, the actual efficiency to a greater extent depends not on power, but on the characteristics of the belts used, the frequency and amplitude of vibrations, etc. Therefore, this parameter, in fact, is secondary, and it is worth choosing a vibratory massager primarily according to the features of programs and equipment. Thus, for many models, power is not indicated at all.
Technically, the power consumption of the device and the load on the power grid depend on the power, but even in the most powerful vibrating massagers, these figures are relatively small — up to 1 kW.
Number of programs
The number of individual work programs provided for in the design of the massager. Do not confuse this parameter with the number of speeds (see below): many programs provide changing the speed during operation.
The more this number — the more versatile the device, the higher the probability of finding the best option for each specific case. On the other hand, note that the specific range of programs may be different, it should be clarified before buying. As a result, it is quite possible that a model with fewer programs will be more suitable, while a more advanced device may not have the right options at all.
Number of speeds
The number of speeds at which the device is capable of operating. In many classic vibratory massagers (see "Type"), where there are no special programs, this indicator actually corresponds to the number of operating modes. Anyway, the intensity of the impact directly depends on the speed; which means that the more speeds, the more options to choose from. On the other hand, the specific speeds and how they are suitable for specific purposes, it still does not hurt to clarify.
Number of belts
The number of belts included in the delivery. It should be noted that belts can be equipped not only with classic vibration simulators, but also with vibration platforms (see "Type").
Different types of belts are designed for different types of massage; accordingly, the more of them in the kit, the more options are available. At the same time, before buying, it is advisable to clarify what kind of belts the vibrating massager is equipped with. Also note that if necessary, belts can, usually, be purchased separately.
Height adjustment
The ability to change the working height of the vibratory massager (the height of the block with a motor and belt pulleys). This feature allows you to optimally adjust the device to the height of a particular user. It is especially relevant if the device is intended for very tall or, conversely, petite people (non-adjustable height is usually designed for average height). In addition, height adjustment can be useful for specific types of massage.
Belt “Thousand Fingers”
The presence of the belt "Thousand fingers" in the delivery set of the vibratory massager.
Massage using such a belt helps to remove excess fluid from the tissues and is considered one of the most effective measures against cellulite.
Country of origin
The country that is the "homeland" of the brand under which the vibratory massager is released. Note that the actual place of production may be located in a completely different country; and the country of origin of the brand is indicated in order to make the product more attractive to the buyer. On the other hand, in the modern world, the quality of a product depends not so much on the country, but on how this quality is controlled by a particular manufacturer. Therefore, when choosing, you should focus primarily on the brand, and not on the country.
Dimensions
The dimensions of the equipment in the assembled and ready to work state. It is important to note that in fact more space is needed for comfortable and proper operation of the simulator.
