Human
Touch iJoy Ottoman 3.0 Calf and Foot Massager
The Human Touch iJoy Ottoman 3.0 Calf and foot massager is an update on the 2.0 version
(featured on this site) and it has a few differences to mention. It is larger and has a different massage space for
your calves and feet. In the 3.0 version, the massage space encloses the feet and calves at the same time whereas
with 2.0 it could only massage one part at a time and you had to physically move that body part to the massage
area. Also the 3.0 comes in a color described as cashew (2.0 is black) which may be more appealing as a piece or
furniture when not in use. It looks like an attractive unit but some people have commented that they were
unsatisfied with the foot massaging element of this foot calf massager.
More on the Human Touch iJoy Ottoman 3.0 Calf and Foot Massager
The 3.0 Ottoman massager uses a technology that the manufacturer describes as Human Touch Technology®. It sounds
pretty much like the same technology used in the 2.0 Ottoman massager which was referred to as Robotic Massage
Technology. I think it's the same thing except in a different shape.
Anyhow, the 3.0 calf and foot massager works the fleshy part of your calves using a variety of rollers that give
the sensation that you are being massaged by the hands of an experienced masseuse. The sensation is described as a
kneading movement on the side of your calves and a thumb like squeezing sensation on the back of each leg going up
and down.
This should relieve and tension and loosen up tight muscles, especially if you have spent all day on your feet.
Come home and give your calves some tender loving care. Another affect that the massager will have is improved
blood circulation around the lower legs. This will not only make you feel more alive and energetic but it will help
to circulate nutrients and white blood cells for better health to these extremeties of the body. It is also good
for dissipating lactic acid from the muscle tissues if you have been working out or running.
The foot component of this unit does not appear to be as good as the 2.0 foot calf massager if feedack is
anything to go by. Reports suggest that it is not as effective in massaging as the calf section. It only produces a
low vibration and does not have the reflexology nodes that many other massagers of this type seem to have. However
feet are amazingly sensitive parts of the body so this gentle massage might suit your needs (some people even
complain that the node type units are too strong and can't use them)
The iJoy Ottoman 3.0 Calf and Foot Massager has two pre-programmed massage modes or you can go manual with the
on-board control console. This allows you to choose particular settings and intensity of vibration/kneading.
As already mentioned this Ottoman 3.0 is covered in a cashew colored faux Suede and can be flipped over 180
degrees to double as a stylish looking foot stool when not in use. This is a main advantage over the products that
look bulky and quite ugly and really need to be cleared away after use. This product can stay in your living room
as an attractive looking piece of furniture full time. No need to pack it away.
