Review on ๐Ÿ’† Foot Circulation Plus: Medic Foot Massager Machine with TENS Unit and EMS for Neuropathy, Diabetes, and Pain Relief โ€“ FSA/HSA Eligible by Susan King

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Thousands of dollars inexpensive alternative to the TENS full body mat

Osito appears to be marketing this product under different names. I've had the foot massager and nerve stimulator version for a few days and it's definitely a 5 star device. The body stimulation pads can be used alone or at the same time as the foot massager. I have peripheral neuropathy in my feet/calfs and I think this may improve my condition. To relieve the numbness in my toes, I simply place the toes of my large feet on the heels. At least he feels good. I've tried body pads on my knees and can feel the stimulation, but it's too early to say if there's a long-term benefit (I've read that the benefits of TENS are inconclusive). My wife has arthritis in her knees and this seems to give her some relief. The documentation is a bit simplified, but I found out on advancedfootenergizer.com that modes 1-8 are EMS for muscle stimulation and 9-25 TENS for pain relief. I think this product is sold under different brand names but the best way is to buy OSITO. In the spirit of full disclosure, I was offered a gift for a 5 star rating which I would be happy to give with or without a gift. Also, I was asked to leave a review for this identical one? Element with a slightly different name. As additional information, I was introduced to TENS at a seminar organized by my medical clinic. They clearly believe that TENS has advantages. They advertised full-body pads for several thousand dollars (or the possibility of individual treatments worth several hundred a year). Few of us can afford it. The Osito device appears to be an inexpensive alternative with many of the features I heard about in the workshop. It will probably take me a few months to determine if EMS/TENS is useful for us.

Pros
  • Massagers and devices
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
