INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Insert the power adapter jack into the plug on the massager’s power cord, then plug the unit into a 120-volt electrical outlet. Always make sure the unit is set to the off position before inserting the plug into a 120-volt electrical outlet.
-
Unfold the Body Flex Stretch Mat and place on the floor. Alternatively, the mat can be placed on a firm flat mattress, providing any soft bedding is removed first.
-
Remove shoes, scarves, ties, belts, and jewelry. Wear soft, comfortable clothing.
-
Lie down on the mat on your back with your bottom nearest the bolster end and the pillow underneath your head.
-
Position your legs and arms according to the directions in chart at right. Please choose appropriately as your leg and arm positions can affect the intensity of the stretch considerably.
-
Press the power p button on the remote control.
-
Choose your intensity level:
LOW = 1 LED lit
MED = 2 LEDs lit
HIGH = 3 LEDs lit
We recommend starting on LOW as you can always increase the intensity during the program if you prefer a deeper stretch. -
Select a program.
NOTE: Program time is approximately 15 minutes on high intensity and less on medium or low intensity. For a longer session, programs can be run one after another. -
Relax, as the stretch program starts, close your eyes. Relax all your muscles and focus on your breathing. Allow the weight of the body to sink deeply into the mat. Stretches can be repeated as often as you like, but as with anything new, always start gently and build up your regimen as your body becomes accustomed. We recommend starting with stretching on level 1 and slowly build up the intensity and frequency of your routine.
