Purpose / Intended use: The Chi Machine is a Therapeutic Massager.
Benefits of using the Sun Ancon Sun Harmony Chi Machine are: temporarily relieves muscular aches, pains and tension caused by fatigue or overexertion and temporarily increases local blood circulation. It helps reduce leg fluids, whole body extracellular fluid, weight associated with extracellular fluid and subjective leg symptoms. The Chi Machine relaxes muscles locally and provides a full body massage.
How the Chi Machine Operates
The Sun Ancon Chi Machine operates with the user lying on their back and placing their ankles in the grooves of the footrest on top of the machine. The timer switch is activated for the user's preferred amount of time (2-5minutes for the first time users; 15 minutes is suggested for second time and continual use). The footrest moves back and forth, carrying the user's feet from side to side. This movement carries up through the legs, torso and up throughout the entire body causing the user to wiggle back and forth, like a fish.
The Chi Machine is a medical device in several countries, including Japan. This medical device has provided various benefits for many people including myself with my RSD / CRPS. I know that its status as a Class II Medical Device by Health Canada helped me make my decision when I was looking to purchase this device for myself. I knew it was the right machine for me.
