Review on 👣 CINCOM Foot Circulation Stimulator with Heat and EMS TENS Unit: Relieve Muscle Soreness, Improve Circulation, and Aid Neuropathy by Carla Anderson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Electrical stimulator not a massager

This device is not really a massager like a vibrating or deep tissue massager. This is electrical stimulation (2 different types) using heat. If you don't care about ED or have a medical condition that you shouldn't use it for, this device isn't for you. CINCOM heated foot circulation stimulator, EMS TENS device with 4 electrode pads combines two different types of electrical stimulation: electrical muscle stimulation with foot pads on which you place your bare feet and TENS delivered via the electrodes that you place in the desired place. You can use both types at the same time. I had to increase the intensity to 40 before I started feeling EMS on the leg plates. If you don't feel anything, just gradually increase it until you feel tingling. It doesn't run on batteries, so you'll need access to an outlet to use it. The electrodes are not permanent, they are semi-disposable. Be prepared to purchase replacement electrodes when using the TENS feature. Advantages: * You can control the machine from the front of the device or from the remote control. Convenient remote control so you don't have to bend down to operate the device.* The display is easy to read.* Although the device is large, it's much lighter than other foot massagers I've used.* Personally, I like the feel of the electrical stimulation, so I liked the feel.* Intensity levels increase in small increments so you don't run the risk of "hurting" yourself.* The TENS electrodes held up well, but didn't peel my skin when removing them . Cons: * I have never felt warm with this machine. I don't know if this feature is broken on my computer or what. It says it hits 120 degrees, which I should definitely feel. It lights up, I just don't feel the temperature difference. * It has a rather high price. Although there are two different types of electrical stimulation, you're limited to EMS used on the lower leg (I felt it up to my knees) and TENS when using the foot massager (it's not portable like a separate TENS). unit of measure).* Although there are several different "modes" I wasn't clear what the real difference between them was. I'm not sure which mode is best for the type of problem you're trying to solve. *I felt like they could give you at least one extra set of TENS electrodes for the price. I really liked the EMS part. I think I would be much happier with the overall experience if I actually felt some warmth when using it. Given the price and the lack of warmth, I can only give an average rating.

Pros
  • Electrical massagers
Cons
  • are unreliable
