Best Foot Massager: Top 7 Popular Models TESTED in [2017]

Let's be honest, massage just makes us feel better.

There's nothing else quite like it that can help us relax, sleep more restoratively, and live a more pain-free life.

All massage is wonderful, but foot massage has very specific health benefits that can't be obtained with other remedies.

Many people who suffer from plantar fasciitis, flat feet, heel pain, or other foot disorders, rely on massage for daily activities, such as the simplest act of walking pain-free.

And for those who suffer from diabetes, studies have shown that foot massage can be an important part of their treatment and provide relief they can't get elsewhere. Similarly, those who suffer from Chron's disease or Irritable Bowel Syndrome have found relief in reflexology treatment.

If you have a serious health or foot condition, such as chronic heal pain, or you just find you have better overall health and wellness when you receive regular foot massage, you might find that a home foot massager is exactly what you need. Here are our picks for the best of the best, no matter your circumstances.
