It does come with directions (if I remember correctly). I have used it on my legs and arms with no problem, but I don't know if the directions officially recommend it for these areas. As my review and several others note, I would be very hesitant to use it on large areas due to its strength and would suggest you test it on very small areas several times to see how your skin reacts.

Yes. I purchased this for my gf who is the same build. It is more about how you use the roller (location of use and amount of pressure you put into it). She uses the roller on a daily basis mostly for her back but I use it for quads, lats, calves, and ham string muscles.

I didn't realize there were five different "kneedits". However, when making my decision, i tried a few on at a sporting goods store, watched and read a bunch of online content, and understood the mechanics of my personal knee issue. None of them are going to work like magic, but i will say this: after wearing mine during leg workouts, stopping because i didnt feel they were as effective as described, experiencing the pain come back, wearing them again and realizing that they do work (just not 100%), i decided they are a decent product.

Although I have never used the unit on my knee, I see no reason why it would not work. The unit sends electrical impulses that contract any muscle, strengthening the muscle and increasing blood flow to the applied area.

I love mine. There is one exercise the video shows that bugs my knee but it's easily adaptable. My mom got a gazelle after I did. She has bad knees. It doesn't bother her. Side note...I think it a important to add wd40 to the crossbar the handles are attached to as suggested by somebody.

Hello Same A., hmmm this is pretty large to be trying to "wrap" around a knee..it is so substantially made, and thus a bit stiff to consider a "wrap"...I drop it into a big soup pot full of boiling water for a few minutes until all the husks absorb the hot water and fill out the channels in the pad, hold it over the sink to drain off the most water, then encase it in a big towel. The heat keeps releasing and releasing for a long time. Its awesome. I've used it in massage therapy for clients for many years...very effective for prolonged moist heat. good luck.

I would think it would work on all areas just may be painful process for the thigh area unless you hold the skin tight and it's head has the capacity of covering a smaller area so it would be a very time consuming process also.

Yes, it will work for you. Actually it will help you how ever you choose to use it. You can carry on the front or back or even on your hip if you like. Whatever is most comfortable for you.

Hi, After a hip injury, my goal is to keep my legs and hips flexible. I enjoy using it, & I believe it is helping to do that. I haven't used it for my arms but that's another option, and can't really speak about 'toning'. I believe variety of activities that work all the various muscles is what we all want. I personally think it was well worth purchasing - as it's very well made, easy to use and doesn't take up much space.

I bought this for my mom, so I actually have not used it myself. It doesn't seem like it would work for the knee due to the design. The company has other products, maybe there is one designed for the knee. Jaime Thomas

It can be used on any part of the body you can effectively reach. I also use it on my lower back and shoulders, etc. The main part of the body are the legs.

Mine had a longer elastic band that fit all the way around hips, then the smaller elastic band went around thigh. I found it really helpful that this allowed me to place the ice pack exactly where I needed it for most painful spot--whether groin, outer thigh, etc. The bands held it in place so that when I was able I could have it on and get things done. It also held it on securely enough to strap on to (hopefully) sleep. Perhaps they don't have a diagram because the use is so flexible and you can just use the straps to securely hold in whatever position you need. I even used it on lower back with just the longer strap Mine had a longer elastic band that fit all the way around hips, then the smaller elastic band went around thigh.

I have a bad left hip joint so I only use the left leg to keep the weight off hip joint when walking. It does the job . I also use a elbow crutch the same way. Seems to work just as well.

Depends on your size and where specifically you need it to hit. If you're broad enough, it shouldn't have a problem reaching spots on either side of your spine. If not, you'll need to carefully maneuver it where you need so as to not put all your weight on a joint/vertebrae. Overall, it's really more made for your lower half.

I used it for my back... believe I have torn muscles etc, from heavy lifting. I did notice a big difference with it and shall continue to use it. Barbara

Have you been using the side motion as per the instructions?It should work, because you feel it stretching that area when you do it,I've seen improvement in only a week.Also go on you tube,this guy uses it as a full body work out.

I'm not a Dr. but I've used this device all over my back area with great results. So long as you can lay it flat and not on a curved area like the top of the shoulder it should work fine. Remember to use lower levels of intenstiy and work up not the other way around because this is electricity, hope this helps, Paul.
