Do those mini massagers really work?

My wife works hard and is on her feet most of the time at work. I’d like to massage her neck and shoulder area since it seems to relax her quite a bit, but am all thumbs when it comes to massage. I’ve seen those Homedics Mini Massagers @ Wal-Mart which seem kinda handy. I was wondering if anyone had any experience using those three-pronged little massagers, whether or not they really work and feel good.

Not really. They mostly just buzz and vibrate too fast to feel good. It always seems to massage the hand that’s holding it more than whatever you’re trying to massage.
