Recommendations for a strong leg & foot massager?

Need one at home, so please help with suggestions, guys. Usage is foot & lower leg (below knee) area massage once or twice a week. We like really strong foot massages, so a powerful massager is a must.

Went on Amazon, but it's a rabbit hole of endless options & unknown brands, even if you select 4-star and up rating.

Thanks in advance!

Re: Recommendations for a strong leg & foot massager?

My information is very outdated since I bought this several years ago - maybe 7-8 yrs plus IIRC.

But Osim is a pretty solid brand and the Osim uPhoria is designed for exactly what you’re looking for - feet and calves. It has 4 different modes; heat on / off; etc. Leaving some pics below. Its certainly lasted us a long time without any maintenance or issues.

You’ll have to check what the equivalent model today is called in case they’ve changed / updated the model names. They used to have a store in Atria but not sure where it’s retailed anymore.

Hi GTO

This is what I bought from Amazon, though at a lesser price during the festival sale. The performance is great and I really like it. There are very good reviews not just here, but overseas as well. A good global Product

Re: Recommendations for a strong leg & foot massager?

I would strongly recommend you to visit a retail store and take a demo before making a decision. It helps if there is any defect on the product, else you have to just throw it away. Also, Massagers are a personal choice.

Initially, I bought AGARO Leg/Foot Massager. It was of no good for me, but my father loved the product.

Now, I use RENPHO Foot (Only Foot) massager and it's excellent. My father does not like RENPHO foot massager. So, it's a matter of what you are comfortable with.

For leg, I bought RENPHO Leg Massager. Father uses RENPHO against his AGARO for leg. So, I feel it boils down to personal choice.

Unfortunately, RENPHO does not have a store in India, I guess..

Osim Uphoria is top of the line stuff. I have tried tons but nothing ever came close especially how it deals with the calves. Just a heads up, the massage strength is quite intense, which might be a bit much for some, and it’s a bit bulky.
Osim has a new updated Uphoria model in Singapore but get the older version if available, it might be better since it should be easier to service through Osim India.

Re: Recommendations for a strong leg & foot massager?

I recently got lifelong massager, would not rate it high. It’s quite basic & does its job decently. On 2nd tought I could have got something better.

Hi, I paid 14999 for this during the sale. I did not see many offers then, but just had a no-cost EMI with few banks

Re: Recommendations for a strong leg & foot massager?

I have one from Agaro for the last 10 years I think and has worked very well. Personally will vouch for Osim products also. Have their vibration exercise board for the last 12 years and it works so very well.

Re: Recommendations for a strong leg & foot massager?

We have a Restolax massage chair now, purchased a few months back. This one has an integrated calf & foot massage section.


Reg Osim:
We had got the Osim massage chair back in 2006 or so. It ran fine till about 2 years back, and parts issue for that model + (non-official) feedback from the service rep that Osim no longer has the old reliability had us look beyond that brand. The old unit was an all Japan one, btw.

Re: Recommendations for a strong leg & foot massager?

Been using an Inada Therapina Robo massage chair for the past 3 years and am happy with the experience so far. I especially like its Stress relief and Night programs before heading to bed.

Re: Recommendations for a strong leg & foot massager?

Has anyone used the ceragem massager bed. I am planning to get one for my parents. It would be very helpful if someone can share his experience and the particular model used.

Re: Recommendations for a strong leg & foot massager?

Just bought the Osim U squeeze 2 - which currently retails as their top foot massager in India. It has been updated to US 3 in SE Asian markets but won’t be launched in India as per the Osim India sales team.

The USP of the Osim US 2 is the adjustable cafe massager which can be set at any of the 6 angles to massage the sides along the length of the calves. Although it is also marketed as a thigh massager, as someone 6 feet tall, the ergonomics just don’t work.
