how do you use the Acu masseur and for how long?

There are so many ways to use the thing and I'm always amazed that it has no instructions with it. Momentum 98 has a lot of "how to use" on their product page. We all had to figure it out by trial and error. Take a look. It's a massage supply store in Columbus, Ohio.

The product works like a nutcracker (bendable). I recommend that you watch a YouTube video (make sure you search for Acu-Masseur). The product has many massage applications and can break-down for easy travel. It's hard to say how long I used it since I like using it. But, you will get results in minutes.

It's like a nutcracker, with the back of your neck as the nut and the two red orbs as the points of pressure. I tend to hit it a couple of minutes at a time, maybe twice a day.

Fromwhat I have read, you should not discharge this unit in the air for more than 1 second. I bought one for my wife to care in her patrol vehicle,but if you need to use it it must be in contact with your attacker. G.Goff

Just wait till it uses all the fluid. A little goes a long way. Full it lasted me around 26hrs. Periodicly taking it out to get real hot then back in the bag.

I'll be a decent person, and advise you and everyone else how to use this device correctly. I've been using EMS/Tens units for years, and after learning the proper techniques, I can offer the following advice. #1. Wipe your sides, and stomach off with alcohol swabs to rid your body of dirt, oils, and other oils. #2. Unless your using electrode gel (Spectra 360 Gel $5.50 each on amazon), you are wasting your time on the product. Using electrode gel on your stomach & the pads, will make the 80 settings feel twice as strong as the 99 setting without the gel. I'm using the same belt as you, on 99 setting with the gel I feel my entire stomach contract, and send extremely strong shocks of ems into my stomach. *This greatly increases the sensation of your pad not working in the stomach area. #3. Please clean your gel pads with rubbing alcohol or hand santizer, & clean your Parker Spectra 360 Electrode Gel 250 Gram Tubeplastic covers with windex; pads will be able to be used for 60-90+ days doing this.

Well, I have only used them a few times, because I would be lying if I said I *didn't * find getting the hang of it is a learning curve. Basically you place it on the area in need of massaging, and press down on the top, depressing it until you feel a sense of suction and subsequently a firm grip, so the cup cannot just fall off, then you maintain suction while massaging the skin in the desired area in circular motions, with it. The learning curve is in acquiring sufficient technique to do this without pinching the flesh with the suction in the cup.

Hummmm Mine is a Gradient Sequential Compression Circulation System Ohbiker. It has an on and off and a timer and it is absolutely wonderful. I used this item as pictured for daily usage for 2-3 months. Now, I have gone several moths without using it but apply vodka, magnesium flakes for the occasional RLS. But I plan to start using it again soon. I feel this is a long term care thing and not a quick fix. Really unsure where the instructions were that states this is for blood and lymph though I am sure it is doing just that as it does the gradual compressions up and down the legs. Best wishes...

It is a cool tool. Couldn't use in a situation that you needed rapid answer for sick patient. Pt has to hold still for at least 30 seconds, so if they are in distress they can't hold it.

This is like a new car that you can't get into gear unless you put your foot on the brake. Why tec support could not tell you how is bad. It's so easy it's hard the first time. Plug the unit in. Place a record on the turn table. Press the cue button. Lift the arm and bring it over to the record.Press the cue button to lower the needle. Your turn table is turning. It' a clever way they have it set up BUT why didn't they put it into the instructions. I think I'ts a great unit.

If you have no gum discomfort, start with 20 minutes and work your way up. I use it for an hour.

So far, I've only had to charge one time since I bought it in July. You charge ONLY when it runs out. From my understanding from others, that have had it for over a year, they have not had to replace. There is a one year warranty, but you can add to this. I absolutely love this device, which BTW is the same unit my chiropractor uses. No more problems with my shoulder and neck. (Rotator cuff) My husband also used it for a pulled calf muscle...fixed it right up. Buying this unit was the best purchase I ever made! (Also good on Charlie horses)! Run don't walk to purchase this unit!! You won't be sorry! So far, I've only had to charge one time since I bought it in July. You charge ONLY when it runs out.

I use Nivea skin firming cream that I purchased from walmart. I rub the cream over problem areas and use the massager in a circular motion. I try to start from the lowest point and go upward. I'm probably spending about ten to fifteen minutes per application.I believe that the balls on the massager helps break the cellulite pockets up over time. You have to use the massager consistently and you will see results.My legs are really bad so for me to see results so quickly I know that the product works.

-Set clutch to #18-Grab hold of the black hub [chuck] with a gloved hand-Switch drill into reverse and try a nano second, trigger pull-Caution on the 'trigger pull' as these are quite powerful units-I bought one for my 'better half' and if she had this problem [i would take control]...Been a master m/c mechanic since 1979 and drills have 'gotten away' from me before...I to learned respect ALL drills...No insult implied or intended as one can break their wrist "As quick as look at you"

I've seen a video where the former special forces officer showed how to use it proper and that was what he said:You must first grab the attacker to his waist,sides or low back (take the best grip as possible)with your 1 hand and zap him with the other hand to his eye,under nose,lips or even crotch(neck at the last resort) and hold for a few second.Then he said that if you hold zapping for 5 seconds the attacker may fell asleep.So always remember about mercy an don't do more than 4 sec.
