Medisana Shiatsu Massager with Remote

The beneficial effect of the highly refined MEDISANA Shiatsu units is based on combining the well-proven finger massage function with an option to start the treatment with a preliminary vibration massage. The Shiatsu units are available with (SR) and without (SK) remote control. The SK unit has two massage directions and two levels of vibration, while the SR unit provides additional conveniences: remote control for various massage programs such as massage time and massage direction and an additional third level of intensity of vibration. It is recommended that you loosen up the muscle groups to be treated with a soft vibration massage. After this preparation, the kneading massage is incredibly similar to the finger pressure (shiatsu) massage of a skilled masseur. The flat shape of the unit also makes it easier for use on the neck area when lying down. In a similar way, it is very easy to allow the arms, legs and feet, to be placed on the massage towel that covers the two massage heads. The unit is passed gently along and with light pressure on the larger muscle groups such as the backside or the thighs. This can also be very relaxing if a partner assists. The length of treatment of the individual body regions should not be more than three minutes each, and the overall treatment should not be more than 10 to 15 minutes. A resting period of 15 minutes after each such massage session is a good idea for both the patient and the unit. If the massage is felt to be a little too strong on especially sensitive muscle sections, the effect can be correspondingly softened by placing a towel over the massage heads. Consult your doctor if the complaints persist. This long-lasting, high-quality unit can be easily cleaned after treatment with a soft cloth and a mild cleaning agent.
