Authors comments
An ordinary muscle massager can be used as a sex aid. Generally speaking men need the highest frequency, woman with sensitivity the lowest. You have to test.

The user recommends massagers with electric cord. They last longer than battery-run appliances. The model on picture 2 is unfortunately extremely heavy, though it is one of the few currently available with an electric cord.
Battery-run massagers are easier to take along.
