" It is best to buy the massage cushion and foot massage stationary things. I know they are costly, but they pay off. In the long run you can end up getting the benefits of massage any time day or night. "

" The only free massages I have ever heard of are from students of a massage school who need practice......you could check that out.
personally, I agree with kitcat. The massage cushions and foot massage items are the best. You also do not have to travel! I got my chair cushion for 1/2 price on Craig's list, which is an online 'garage sale' in your zip code. The gal only used it a few times, so I got a nearly new cushion for 1/2 the cost! "
