Home spa? No ta! Bizarre massage gadgets from Japan look like instruments of TORTURE

Postby Sa_Race » Wed Mar 28, 2012 12:09 pm

You'd be forgiven for thinking a massage would be a time to unwind, relax and forget about the stresses and strains of everyday life.
But one look at this selection of so-called relaxation aids sold by Japan Trend Shop is enough to have the opposite effect.

Healing hands: This pillow uses a mould of real therapist's hands to 'straighten' the neck vertebrae

Hospital therapy: This model may look like they've broken their legs but in fact this is a relaxing leg massager

Mah sister, got a sybian like that, but it's just one hand giving a shocker. The power supply needed to run that stuff is impressive...

I loooooove chair massage, i always pop myself into one at onsens.

As for the facial/leg/cellulite torture devices...i will admit to owning a few of them. How can you not? You go into Kokumin or Matsuyoshi and all the instore displays just suck you in. Honestly, Japan has perfected the art of marketing crap no one actually needs. those Pro-Active and that bellyfat shaking belt adverts haven't been on tv for years because they actually work.
