Massagers

Nea 2 Massager

The Nea 2 massager from Lelo is ideal for releasing and relaxing the muscles governing laryngeal movement and articulation. The vibration intensity is variable, from extremely gentle to quite intense, so it is very good for laryngeal massage and for applying to the throat while vocalizing.

Penguin Mini-Massager

If you're not ready to invest in a Nea 2, the Penguin is a fine affordable alternative. It vibrates at two speeds (both pretty strong) and is excellent for releasing jaw, neck and shoulder tension. It also has the advantage of *not* being marketed as a sex toy.

$9.99
Magic Wand Massager

This is the classic back massager originally manufactured by Hitachi. The Magic Wand is good for releasing bigger muscles in the back, shoulders and abdomen but is not recommended for use on the throat or face.
