Product review: LiWell from South Korea, Air Pressure Hand Massager, Wireless, Hand Acupressure


 


The hand massage squeezes your hand with air-filled buffers. It is not as good as a human physical therapist's pressure massage, as the machine applies pressure to the entire hand surface.  It puts pressure from the fingers to the wrist.  If you want to imagine what it feels like, think of the blood pressure cuff used by your doctor.  This machine has a hand pocket that feels very similar to the blood pressure cuff applied to your hand. I thought it felt okay; I can't say it felt good or great.

The biggest issue I had with the unit is that its button labels are pink on pink background. I cannot read a single label; there is not enough contrast. I had to refer to the box, which has a picture of the top panel with black labels, to figure out even how to turn it on. The power button is not a corner button as one would expect.  Maybe young people with acute vision can read those low contrast labels? If you are over 40, make sure to keep the box to figure out what button does what.  I am sure the product has not been well tested with people of different ages for user interface design usability.

You can find it on Amazon by following this link.
