Can this be used for lower back. Say in the house laying down or in an office chair and if so, how about the power supply?

Yes, u can use it on a chair or laying down. This is a dual voltage 110/220V

Yes... it is great for home or in a car. You can position for low back or higher is you like. it It comes with a plug for standard electric and one for the cigarette lighter in the car or RV. I use it in a recliner and my husband uses it while sitting and an office chair at the computer. However I love the idea of that he can use on his low back when we are on long driving trips. I have used it on my shoulder too but its a little tricky to keep it in place for the shoulder.

I use it for my lower back sparingly. I'm around 200 lbs and can't fully lean on it without the motors stopping or slowing . But I like really deep tissue massages . It will work , just don't push back super hard . Power supply: comes with home plug , and a car plug.

It can but laying flat on it will wear it out faster. Depending on how big you are too. I've done it on my couch and it's pretty powerful and mine lasted a year before holes tore through the fabric. I bought another one because I love it so much. Can definitely be used on lower back in car or on a chair. Has a power cord and car adapter.

I think it would, my wife uses it 95% of the time in a pillow back comfort chair in our living room . She never uses it a straight or office because she is reired. I know when we travel it goes with us but she will not use it in the car because she can't get it skinny enough. Over all she defiantly uses it religiously .

I use it in the small part of my back in my easy chair mostly. When I first ordered it I thought it was for exercising but it is not for exercising of the low back area. I have scoliosis.

I put one under the seat of my car, zip-tied to the bottom "springs"...used a smaller 300w amp - was awesome! but it would be nice to be able to turn it off and on - i could see where it would get annoying sometimes.

I think it may work great for the lower back & the massager also has a speed adjustment. I hope that helps :) . I use it for my shoulder & for my legs, due to poor circulation & its doing a job so far

I think so, but don't know that for sure. Have not used it that way. Do you mean lay it down, then a person lay on their back on top of it? or the other way: a person on their stomach ? I think it is best used sitting in a chair.

Can't say I've ever tried doing that with my HoMedics Massager, but I think it probably can be done. I don't believe there's anything that forces the back of the chair to stay in an upright position, so you could probably lay it flat and turn it on while laying in a hospital bed.

I don't see why not (although I have not tried it myself) given that it will be stationary when used. It also need constant power supply to work while being used. It's very very light and about on heavier than 100 pages book.

I would suggest getting a decent size UPS, like the APC SmartUPS 1000 or larger. These provide pure sine wave power, automatically recharge, provide continuous surge protection to your chair, and automatically switch over in a power failure. They are normally used for computers, but may work in this situation.

I have never used it lying down and would think that to be very difficult. As long as you can get your feet (or hands) in the pedals then a somewhat reclining position might be okay not sure about that. If you can reach the pedals with your hands or feet then its usable I would think. I sit on a couch, put the ergometer on a table near the front of my couch and place my hands on the pedal stirrups and pedal with my arms. For your feet you can sit on a chair or couch and with the ergometer on the floor pedal around I suppose but I use it not for my legs or with my feet but with my hands for my upper body and love it. Always make sure you are okay to exercise by running it by your doc. Usually I would imagine it would be okay but I'm not a doctor. Good luck and let us know what you do.

Hi NormaYes you can use this in bed, and you can also use it in a seat as a lumbar support.

Yes you can use it while you're laying down it's a very good to use in bed and recliner. This is a very good item to have I use it for my iPad or use it from my MacBook Pro 13 Laptop. It's very will constructed, all wood. I highly recommend this product.it's the best bed table I ever had.

Yes. This is usually used for just computers, stereos, or tvs. It protects from surges and conditions the power supply. It also allows you time to save your work and shut down the computer safely. Depending on how many items are plugged into it, it can allow you 10-25 minutes of power.

I use it with my lazyboy chair in house. it has an AC adaptor you can plug in to a regular outlet.

If your back problem requires you to keep your legs elevated then I think this pillow would work for you. My wife has lower back issues and this pillow allows her to sleep at night. She use to use a recliner as a bed until we got this pillow. She loves it and I have my wife back. Hope it works for you.

I do not believe that the country that you choose to use the cushion in has any relevance in its use. Only limitation is created by Not having a 12 volt electrical power supply.
