Relaxis Counterstimulation Device

Post by Hence4th »

I just learned of a new FDA approved device called 'Relaxis' that is a vibration pad that is placed under your legs. It requires a physician prescription and is purchased through a medical equipment supplier. It is very expensive..$850 - $1100...but their website says it can be rented for a trial period.

Is anyone using this device and if so, what is your experience with it

thanks, hence4th
