Notes

Percussion massagers are most often limited by battery wear and motor stress. Repair can be worthwhile if it's a simple battery swap or a loose charging port and the motor still runs smoothly.

Replace is usually better if the motor is grinding, the head mechanism wobbles, or the unit overheats-signs that internal drive components are worn and may lead to repeated failures.
