FORTHiQ Knee Massager Smart with Heat, Red Light and Massage Therapy, 3-in-1 Cordless, Gifts for Grandma & Grandpa, 2026 Updated Edition

I have recently had a bad flare up with my knees, I have had osteoarthritis for 8 years. My gp recently said that he would refer me for a double knee replacement, but only being 56, I want to hold that off for as long as I can. I had resorted to using a rollator Walker for the last 3 weeks on holiday to help me ease the pressure off of them which it did, I still had swelling when not using the rollator. I the bought the Forthiq infra red heated knee massager a week ago and found it quick & comfortable to use. 10 minutes on each knee in the morning and again before bed and it has kept me going much more than I thought it would. I have even been able to comfortably cycle on my trike for 5 miles a few days ago. It has helped me tremendously, My inflammation has reduced to nothing, I am still walking with a stick outside the home, but, the pain has reduced to a twinge every now an then. I’m sleeping much better and my neuropathy in my thighs has eased. I’m just taking a couple of paracetamol if necessary but not everyday. My knees have not been clicking and popping when I bend them like they have for years after using the heated massager, it must be circulating the blood supply well. My husband has even put it on his shoulder and it has given him relief from his shoulder strain. The only downside to this massager is that the straps need to be about 3 inches longer, I had to use the Velcro from my patella knee support straps as extensions and they work really well to make if a good fit for me. This product has worked extremely well for me and the relief it has given me has been worth every penny spent on it.

I decided to give my review a month after purchasing the item so I can give an honest review. I have been going to the gym the past 24 years, have vitamin D deficiency so the past years have been getting aches and pains in my knees. I saw this item and read reviews and decided to give it a try as it was a 30 day refund. I have been using this item 3 times a day as they recommended. It is a 10 min massage on each knee its timed to switch off after 10 mins. So in total both my knees get an hour massage every day. The heat and vibratation feels good whilst massaging. So I do find the item good as I do feel at times my knees feel lighter but it hasn’t got rid of the pain. The downfall is you have to charge it every 2 days for 6hrs approx. But I have decided to keep it as I think there is a bit of a difference in my knees.

Brings relief to painful knees. Comfortable and easy to use

I decided to buy after thinking about a considered purchase when your budget is limited, but the choice was have pain not buying or go for it & buy it & reduce the pain it was then a easy choice. glad i did it is no miracle cure i will say but does help with my daily life, easy to use & control i set it to suit me then i sit back watch a movie while it works on my knee for 10 mins, a huge help i didnt use the full heat part found was to hot but you will find your own levels,

The jury is out. Both my knees have been very painful. I’ve been using the knee massager along with targeted knee exercises which give relief afterwards . My knee has improved a bit but it’s hard to tell whether the massager has been instrumental in this. I’ve been using the massager for 3-4 weeks.

Well made quality product. It works well, feels good. Not sure if it will help my knee problems long-term but certainly worth a try

This is amazing bit of kit. It works similar to a tens machine but with heat. Its powerful and has multi vibration and heat settings. It rids of pain instantly once on and seems to keep pain at a manageable level once finished it's cycle and removed. However, it looks like a crash helmet for your knee, is quite loud, similar to an MRI scan noise pattern when in use, obviously can't move about have to stay in a seated position unlike my little tens machines I have, bulky to store too. Price a little steep but all these negatives are without doubt out weighed by the positives. If it rids of pain just for some relief to me it's worth looking like robo cop, having to turn volume up on TV and find somewhere easy to store and get out when needed. Yes I recommend it.

Firstly, on opening the box, the unit looks like part of a Star Wars Stormtrooper has broken off. The strap and velcro fastening is too short to fit around my arthritic knee. I thought therefore having to hold it in place might be of more benefit. Wrong. This doesn't generate enough heat or vibration in massage mode and after the pre-programmed 10 minute session is up, all you're left with is a slightly red circle. The same result can be achieved by massaging in Bio-Freeze and at a fiver a tube is a no-brainer compared to this over-priced rubbish.

Très bien mais un peu bruyant sangles pas confortables mais efficace !

The device is nice, but better sold it by pairs. You know majority of us have 2 knees.

Works wonders

تغليف وجودة وخامة نظيفة لكنه تحت التجربة وتقيم الاداء لاكن التسخين والاهتزاز جيدين جدا

ma piccoli sollievi su entrambe le ginocchia che mi fanno correre ancora senza troppi problemi. Ci tengo a dire che l'ho preso quasi con l'intento di renderlo però mi sono ricreduto. Però è sottinteso e scontato che è tutto estremamente soggettivo in base a quello che è la propria situazione. Sicuramente se hai un menisco rotto, ad esempio, vai lascia perdere e vai da un buon ortopedico.
