I have a heavy-duty massager whose main structure is held together by two

wondering if there's any sane and relatively permanent way to repair the
threads. Whatever I use has to tolerate a LOT of vibration, of course.

Use red Loctite, available at many hardware and auto parts stores.
That is the most stubborn grade of thread locker in the Loctitie line.
