REVIEW: Human Touch HT-1350 CirQlation Pro Foot and Calf Massager I have flat feet. This means that I don't have proper arch support in my feet, and it means that I have to wear special inserts in my shoes to provide the proper support. More importantly, it means that if I do anything strenuous (like go on a hike or a long walk, or do any work on a ladder for long periods of time), my feet ache more than the average person's. Soaking my feet in warm water helps somewhat to alleviate the aching, and massaging them by hand helps as well, but neither is the same as getting a real massage. So, when I first heard about the Human Touch HT-1350 CirQlation Pro Foot and Calf Massager, I imagined what it might be like to have my own personal masseuse and I knew I had to check out this product.Weighing in at 26 lbs., the CirQlation Pro is light enough for just about anyone to lift, and although the outer casing is plastic, the unit is solidly built. It comes fully-assembled and is upholstered with Faux Suede to give it a high-quality look. Getting started takes all of five minutes...
