CES 2026 Live: SKG Massage Devices Offer Affordable Neck, Eye, Foot, and Back Relief with TENS and Red Light Therapy

Are you sore, stressed, or tired? That’s probably rhetorical in 2026, as everyone is tense at least some of the time. You can’t escape it forever, but you can get some relief, and we had the chance to explore and learn about SKG’s extensive line of massage devices designed to help whichever parts of you are taking a beating at CES 2026!

You may not be familiar with the name SKG, but they’re the original equipment manufacturer for a number of massagers currently on the market, and they have an impressive portfolio of their own products, too. SKG offers the usual massage guns in various sizes, including some adorably small portable ones. But the real standouts are their and shoulder, back, waist, knee and foot, joint, and face massagers, which bring an impressive level of health treatment at an affordable price pmassagers, which bring an impressive level of health treatment at an affordable price point.

The flagship massager for SKG is the G7Pro_Fold. It’s a neck massager that also provides TENS and vibration, along with red light and heat therapy. There’s also a companion app so you can adjust it from your phone without removing the device.

Even cooler, it folds up so you can bring it with you while traveling or commuting to keep minor discomforts from becoming major issues. There are 9 massage nodules that move like which gives you a more natural massage than a percussive massage gun that functions more like a controlled punch. This model has 11 massage modes, 4 intensity levels and 6 pulse-strength levels. You may customize the massage program that best suits you.

SKG G7Pro_Fold in White and Green

Chances are good you know how massagers work, but you may not be as familiar with EMS, TENS, or red light therapy. EMS, short for Electrical Muscle Stimulation, is a method that uses electrical impulses cause the muscles to contract and relax involuntarily, mimicking the natural signals your nervous system sends when you move. TENS is an electrical stimulator that helps with muscle and nerve pain, and, when combined with massage, it can specifically help release muscle tension.

Red light therapy is still being tested as a recovery tool, but it appears to have some benefits. But when you combine it with heat, TENS, and massage, you get big recovery in a very compact package. Judie and I gave the SKG G7Pro_Fold G7 Pro_Fold a brief try, and we were both shocked by how effective this little neck massager was!

Many of SKG’s wellness products draw inspiration from an unlikely place: space. In microgravity, where normal movement, structured exercise, and even hands-on massage become complicated, space agencies have long explored pulse-based electrical stimulation as a practical way to keep muscles engaged.

Russian spaceflight programs experimented as early as 2006 with garments that had electrode patches woven directly into the fabric to help relax and stimulate lower-body muscles. A few years later, Japanese researchers tested placing electrode pads on areas like the calves, abdomen, shoulders, and back, using high-frequency electrical impulses to trigger involuntary muscle contractions and support recovery.

SKG draws on this research and applies pulse-based stimulation in a far more Earth-bound context, designing devices to deliver accessible, everyday muscle relief whether you’re at home, at work, or squeezing in a moment of recovery on the go.

The updated G7 Pro_Fold 2026 sports a lighter design, slightly more compact fold, and a bit more power in the massage.

SKG H7 Ultra Neck and Head Massager

Of course, if you need broader neck and shoulder work, SKG has bigger and slightly less portable options for deep tissue massage for the neck and shoulder area, too. We half-joked they looked like jetpacks, but they felt quite nice. One added bonus was that being strapped into the SKG H7 Ultra Neck and Head Massager (retails for $199.99) also helps to encourage better posture.

Now, neck massagers may be SKG’s flagship, but it’s not their only area of massage expertise. They also have a number of other great devices, from eye masks to foot massagers, but they all follow the same design language of feeling natural and adding extras to boost your health.

The SKG eye massagers are very impressive. They’re comfortable, provide an eye massage without squishing your eyeballs, and can also provide heat therapy. We tried on a pair and found that they sit perfectly, gently massaging your sinuses, and that their construction provides enough of a seal to block out light without feeling claustrophobic.

Thankfully, none of us had a headache while testing, but it’s easy to see how the SKG eye massagers could provide serious relief or even slow or stop a headache. They’re extraordinarily affordable, too.

Maybe your feet are aching from carrying the weight of your existential crisis of the day; in that case, you’ll want to check out the SKG YS100 foot massager, which offers 12 massage combos, including 3 compression levels and 3 shiatsu intensities.

You can even turn on heat therapy, up to 131 degrees Fahrenheit, which SKG points out is good for plantar fasciitis as well as circulatory issues and neuropathy. Healthy feet can mean healthier legs and back, and who doesn’t want a good foot rub at the end of a long day? Best of all, with it, you can make podiatric self-care a daily routine.

SKG WS5 Knee Massager

Don’t neglect your knees either. SKG offers two different knee massagers, one with red light therapy as well as massage, and one that offers massage with heat therapy. The big difference here is that the WS500 has red light therapy that works best directly against your skin, while the W3 Knee Massager offers heat therapy and can be worn over your clothes. Knees chug along fine until suddenly they’re not anymore. Don’t get caught off guard; be ready to keep your knees happy anytime and anywhere.

And if you suffer from back pain, SKG offers several options for relief. They have a few different waist and back massagers, from pillows you lean against to devices you strap around yourself. Some are just shiatsu, and others provide heat and red light therapy. No matter which you choose, they offer extensive relief without killing your wallet.

What’s really great about SKG’s offerings isn’t just that they’re affordable ways to tap into self-care. It’s that even if you buy several devices to cover your whole body’s needs, you’ve still spent less than you would for a year’s worth of monthly massages or for a whole body massage chair. You can literally create your own home massage experience with everything you need at a fraction of the cost!

Before wrapping up, it’s worth adding a bit of context about the company behind all this hardware. SKG isn’t some brand-new name chasing wellness trends; it has quietly become one of the world’s top smart massager brands by sales, earning that distinction for three consecutive years from 2022 through 2024. Its products are now sold in more than 50 countries, with over 46 million units shipped globally as of late 2025. The company holds more than 1,500 patents and has been covered by many outlets, which helps explain how it keeps churning out such a wide range of devices.

SKG has also picked up some high-profile fans along the way, including several NBA players who’ve been spotted testing — and buying — its gear. More importantly, SKG keeps expanding beyond neck massagers into full-body recovery, building a lineup meant to fit real-life routines rather than a single moment of relief.
