Migraines and tension headaches are excruciating, but there's a higher-tech solution than turning off the lights and taking some ibuprofen: the ultra-relaxing, futuristic-looking Renpho Eyeris 1 Eye Massager. It has over 17,000 five-star ratings, and tons of shoppers say they reach for it when they need relief from staring at a screen all day or they're having trouble falling asleep. Get it for just $56 with the on-page coupon.
This massaging mask also heats up to deliver soothing warmth around your eyes and temples.
Why is it a good deal? 💰
You're saving $14 with this markdown, and while this isn't the lowest price we've ever seen, it's still a welcome bargain for a pricey self-care gadget. It's certainly more affordable than venturing out to get a massage — something you may not want to do if you're in pain anyway! If you or a loved one suffer from frequent headaches, this guy could pay for itself quickly.
Why do I need this? 🤔
The Renpho eye massager uses heat and movement to enhance relaxation and ease migraine pain. There are a few ways these elements can help with migraines, said Dr. Medhat Mikhael, pain management specialist and medical director of the Spine Health Center at MemorialCare Orange Coast Medical Center in Fountain Valley, California. "A lot of people feel that some of the main triggers of migraine are stress and lack of sleep," he says. "Massage can be a preventive measure. If you get a massage regularly, your stress may be relieved, you may sleep better and your [migraine triggers] don't happen."
When you're in the throes of a migraine, massaging the top of the back of your neck may help ease the pain, Mikhael says. However, others may get relief from massage around the eyes (still others may find it's too much).
As for heat, Mikhael says it can help relax the muscles that can feed into migraine pain. And, like massage, it may be helpful to apply it to the top of the back of your neck during a migraine. Otherwise, applying heat around your eyes can help you relax, he says.
The mask is essentially like a personal masseuse, tending to your temples as you recline and listen to soothing sounds. That's right: It can even play music through a Bluetooth connection while it works its magic. The headband is adjustable to help you get that just-right fit, and it folds up compactly for storage or travel.
What reviewers say 💬
An astounding 17,000-plus fans have given this "heavenly" massager a perfect rating, saying it's helped with everything from relaxing before bed to soothing tired eyes.
Pros 👍
"I put it on before I attempt to sleep and it relaxes my eyes, which helps tremendously," shared one chilled-out customer. "My eye muscles have been so stressed, they make sleeping difficult. This machine has helped me so much. ... I'm grateful to have it. When I wake up in the middle of the night and can't get my eyes to relax, I use this for 15 minutes and go back to sleep. It's a literal lifesaver."
"I got it for my mom who gets migraines and she loved it and said it really helped and relaxed her," wrote another verified buyer. "I borrowed it to try and ended up really liking it. She ended up getting me my own so I wouldn't keep borrowing hers. I've been struggling with insomnia and it actually helps with that too!"
"This product has become a daily thing for me," said a third relaxed reviewer. "If you have tension headaches or dry eyes, use this for a couple [of] days... I look forward to using this every night! I have discontinued my eye drops because I don't need them anymore and have cut way down on headache meds! It is incredibly durable and portable!"
Cons 👎
The calming effects of this eye massager are hard to beat, but one shopper pointed out two minor annoyances. "At the end of each session a voice will come on and say, 'Renpho massage complete,' which is really a bummer when you've fallen asleep," they wrote. Another miss: "The massage portion cannot be tailored."
"I use it as a part of my bedtime routine," raved a final fan. "My only gripe is I wish the motor was a little quieter, but play some rain sounds or whatever and it's easy to forget about it."
You'll "knead" to act fast if you want to snag this high-tech helper at a discount.
Psst — maybe your tired feet could use a little TLC too?
Is there anything more heavenly than getting your feet massaged after a long day? Think of this top-selling machine as your on-demand masseuse. Not only does it have multiple settings for a custom pampering sesh, it has a heat function to make the experience even more otherworldly.
"It works magic for tired feet and the kids and adults all use this and everyone loves it," a foot pain-free fan wrote. "It really is made extremely well and the settings are easy to use."
