Standard equipment

Special accessories
The nylon brush and the smooth rubber pad come with the massager. The noduled rubber pad can be purchased separately. If you wish to obtain better blood circulation use, according to your sensitivity, one of the two hyperemia brushes. Hyperamia means: The process by which you improve the blood circulation. The natural bristle brush is more gentle on your skin and is softer than the nylon brush pad. The smooth rubber pad decreases the massage strokes of the base plate, but at the same time, increases the internal effect of the massage. To put on the smooth rubber pad or the noduled one, place the straight side of the base plate on the straight side of the pad. Then bend the rounded part of the pad over the rounded front of the buttom plate. The procedure to put on the nylon brush is the same.

Then press the rounded part of the brush over the rounded surface, and finally at both sides. In order to take off ony one of the accessories, press your thumbs firmly on both sides of the back of the pad and remove the pad from both hatches.

Detailed massage instructions

It is advisible to spend a few minutes to acquaint yourself with your new large-surface massager. It’s to your own advantage since the more you know about the vibratory massage, the more you are going to benefi t by it. The excellent results of the large surface massagers are achieved by their oscillatory effect. Horizontal vibration plus vertical impulse. A three- dimensional effect – on the length, the width, and the depth. Muscles and tissue are loosened, the blood circulation is improved and the metabolism is enhanced. Contrary to a hand massage, the large-surface apparatus does the work 3 to 4 times faster. It even offers another advantage from the fi rst application, you loose the fear of the often painful hand massage. Large- surface massagers rarely cause pain.

Optimal effects of a complete massage

• Accessories optional*
• Duration of massage: 10 -12 minutes

Do you wish to improve your general health condition?

Then a body or complete massage is suggested once a week. While a hand massage takes 40 to 50 minutes of your free time, large-surface massager does the work in 10 to 12 minutes

Do not massage longer!
A lenghty application is useless since the effects obtained could be neutralized by a longer massage. You can devide the complete massage on two weekdays. Today, for example, massage your feet, legs, posterior and arms. Three or four days later the body: chest, neck and both side of the spinal cord

* Optional accessories means:
Either without an accessory at all (just the base plate) or with a nylon brush, a smooth rubber pad, a natural bristle brush or a noduled rubber pad.

The massage should be in counterclockwise direction
Hold the massager by the handle with one hand and with the other hold the knob. Massage slowly and in circles, always in counter-clockwise direction. When massaging the whole body, follow this pattern:

1. Feet
2. Legs
3. Posterior
4. Arms
5. Chest
6. Abdomen
7. Neck
8. Back

If somebody can massage you, lie down and relax your muscles. The massages should be given with the base plate. Press firm but gently the surface you wish to massage

Strong pressure does not produce a stronger effect, on the contrary, it diminishes the result.

According to your needs and the sensitivity of your skin, you may choose from the four accessories.
