Black Friday is Nov. 27, and the Competition Bureau’s rules on false sale prices are one reason to note today’s price before the sales start.

Our picks
No. 1, best for most people: Wattne W2 massage gun. It suits anyone who wants a cordless gun for sore legs and shoulders without paying name-brand prices. The listing gives 20 speed levels, 1,200 to 3,300 rpm, a 2,500 mAh battery and 10 heads. In the reviews shown on the listing, owners praised how easy it is to use, and one said it had lasted since 2021. Those reviews did not point to one common fault. The 18,760 reviews are shared with a second listing at $89.99 (B0CGZSV4T6), so compare what each includes before paying more.

No. 2, best for neck and shoulders: Snailax shiatsu neck massager with heat. This is a wearable option for people who hold tension around the neck and do not want to hold a gun. It has eight rotating nodes that turn both ways, optional heat, a handle belt and a removable sleeve. One owner said it helped work out knots in the neck and shoulders. Another warned that it digs in hard, and was glad the intensity adjusts easily.

No. 3, best low price: AERLANG massage gun. At $39.99, this is the one to look at if a massage gun is a first try or a gift. The listing gives 20 speeds, an LCD touch screen, a 10-minute auto stop and a rated noise of 35 to 55 decibels, and it recommends an eight-hour first charge. One owner called it a solid machine at a good price. It is sold by a third party, SHIHUII, and shipped by Amazon, so check the return terms.

No. 4, most reviewed: Nekteck shiatsu back and neck massager. With 61,591 reviews, this is the most reviewed massager here, and it works as a pillow against a chair or sofa. It has eight kneading nodes, built-in heat and three strength levels, with a PU leather and mesh cover. One three-star reviewer was let down by the heat, so buy it for the kneading first. It is sold by a third party, Forest Hill, and shipped by Amazon.

No. 5, best for a chair: Snailax shiatsu back massager. This pad straps to an office chair, sofa or recliner for people who sit all day. Four kneading nodes travel up and down the back, a flap softens or strengthens the pressure, a spot function targets one area, and the seat vibrates at three levels. One owner said it presses quite hard. A reviewer who is 188 centimetres tall said the nodes did not reach high or low enough, and another said it left their back feeling worse after a year, so tall buyers should measure first.

No. 6, best for cold feet: Snailax 2-in-1 foot massager. It is built for a Canadian winter evening: put your feet in, or turn it into a back cushion. It has silicone-covered nodes and a heating pad, and the listing says the warmth takes about 10 minutes to arrive. An owner praised how easy it is to plug in and use. Reviews are the most mixed here, with one-star reviewers calling the heat weak and the price too high, and it has the lowest rating of the group.

No. 7, best simple name-brand gun: Theragun Relief. This is for buyers who want the Theragun name and a triangle handle that makes it easier to reach your own back. The listing is inconsistent on one point: the title says three speeds and the description says five, with four attachments, so check before buying. One owner who moved up from a generic gun said it beat expectations. At 153 reviews, it has far less history here than the cheaper guns.
See the current price on Amazon.ca
No. 8, for serious athletes: Hyperice Hypervolt 2 Pro. At $469, it only makes sense for people training hard who will use the Bluetooth app’s guided routines and automatic speed adjustment. Hyperice calls it its strongest percussion device. One one-star reviewer described a problem after the first charge, and another owner said the box arrived badly beaten up, so inspect it on arrival.

How we chose. We started from Amazon.ca’s results for “top selling items” on Nov. 4, 2026, and kept massagers rated 4.0 or higher with real review counts. We read each listing and the reviews it displayed, which are only a small sample of the totals. We ranked by fit for the reader, not by price or commission. We did not test these products.
Is a massage gun or a shiatsu massager better?
A gun reaches legs, arms and shoulders, but you have to hold it, which makes your own back hard to reach. A shiatsu massager does the work while you sit or lie back, and it is limited to the areas it can rest against. If the sore spot is your neck or upper back, start with shiatsu. If you are working on legs after a run or a hockey game, start with a gun.
How do I know a Black Friday massager deal is real?
Write down the prices above and compare them on the day. A sale price close to the Nov. 4 price is not much of a sale. Our Black Friday guide covers dates, your rights and how to read a discount. We make no prediction about which of these will go on sale.
Who should skip these
These suit people who want occasional comfort at home. Anyone with an injury, a heart condition, a pacemaker, blood clots, pregnancy or a medical condition should ask a doctor first, and these listings are not a treatment for any condition.
