Earlier this year my lower back started to bother me. This has happened before a few times and would usually resolve itself within a week or two. But this time it stayed, and it got worse as the months went by. I tried a standard heating pad but that didn’t help. I started to worry that I’d possibly have this pain for the rest of my life. Bending down was awful- emptying the dishwasher, drier, picking up laundry baskets, etc. I was in a lot of pain. I decided to try this machine. I was a bit skeptical to be honest but it was the best thing I ever did for myself. First of all it arrived same day which I love. I didn’t even read the instructions- out of the box I just used it that first night on the auto settings for two 15 minute sessions. I’ll admit that it was a bit painful while using it because my lower back was so messed up. But that night I noticed less pain when I changed sides in bed, and the following day my pain was significantly lessened. Night two I used it for one 15 minute session and my back pain was virtually gone! I don’t know what was wrong with my back, I never saw a doctor or a chiropractor for it. But I credit this machine with giving me my life back.

For more than 40 years I've had serious low-back issues due to many injuries from lifting weights. I've been using this device for three weeks now for the suggested 15 mins per day. Can't say that it has taken away all my pain but my pain level has decreased and I have a greater range of motion than I've had for a long time. This product is worth trying.

I was just recently placed in hospice due to the chemo was not working and they found another tumor starting to grow on my Lumbar spine. I’ve had lower back pain before but this kind of pain is completely different and just as bad if not worse for me. I liked that is unit has a TENS type of treatment as well. My only concern was will it work underneath me while laying on the bed, couch or chair. I was not disappointed. So much so I wish the unit would stay on longer instead of me restarting it every 15 minutes.

He suffers with sciatica and it definitely helps him. He occasionally will use it laying down in bed as well. We love that it’s smaller sized and is easy to move around and store when not in use.

This device surprised me! I have had electro-stim at Chiropractor offices for herniated disc, and this felt the same but gave me greater control of the level of stimulation. The instructions recommend that you start slow, and progress to higher levels of stim, massage and traction, and that is perfect advice. Take it slow with all 3 modalities, increasing over a period of days, as your discomfort eases. It provided me with relief from a sciatica episode and back tightening due to disc issues, over the course of 2-4 weeks. Well made, does what it says and provided a lot of back stiffness and pain relief for the money!
