Usage
To begin with, press the area to be massaged only carefully against the
device. Then check carefully whether the massage position is pleasant for you
and then shift your weight gradually towards the mas- sager. Switch on the
massager with the button. When switching the device on with the button, the
kneading rollers will begin to rotate, while the pinch nodes move up and down.
You can select the massage direction by pressing the button.

kneading movements) with the button. The device automatically starts on the

Press the button to switch the massager off again.
Note
- The massage should feel pleasant and relaxing at all times. If the massage is painful or uncomfortable, stop the massage or change the contact pressure using the handles.
- Use the massager for max. 15 minutes. Longer messages can lead to over-stimulation of the muscles, creating tension instead of aiding relaxation.
- The massager features an automatic switch-off function, which is set to the maximum operating duration of 15 minutes.

• Place the massager around your neck.
