Packaging and contents of the head massager

The Heldson head massager not only impresses with its function, but also with its attractive appearance. The classic design of the massager becomes an eye-catcher thanks to the engraved handle. Another highlight is the high-quality workmanship of the product. Both the massage arms and the handle are solid and flawless .

The manufacturer attaches great importance to sustainability and advertises with 100% climate neutrality and the absence of plastic. As an additional extra, a reflexology card is included, which also provides helpful tips for common complaints.
