High Tech Health Circulation Booster Review

we all laughed when my mum bought one of these a little while ago, and basicasic is most probably correct about exercise being more effective, but I have to write in support of this wonderful machine because I'm severely disabled (so I couldn't walk to the coffee machine even if I hadn't had to give up my IT career through illness LOL). I can literally 'see' the effect on my circulation turning my toes from blue to 'normal'. After regular use I also noticed that I suffered fewer cramps (waking up to cramp in your shins, calves and thighs in both legs at once is difficult to ignore!). A friend of mine ( a teacher who has had to give up work due to injury) was told this week that her lack of sensation in her feet was permanent due to untreated spinal compression. She tried this machine yesterday and her feet were warm to the touch for the first time in 18 months. It got rid of the 'crawling' sensation that she suffers due to spinal compression and also provided respite from her 'restless legs syndrome'.
In no way should my comments be taken as a medical recommendation but when you can't work and have to exist on benefits you think hard before spending £200. We've both ordered this machine.

I have to agree with Daska and endorse everything he says. This is a fantastic machine and is worth every penny. I am also disabled (through MS) and the circulation booster has dealt with my poor circulation, swollen ankles and lack of muscle tone. It actualy lifts your ankles up from the footplates - thus simulating the walking movement!

Definitely the best equipment I have bought - and you can get VAT relief if you're disabled or have a chronic medcal condition.

Have read the article and comments with interest and am giving this Gadget some thought. However, I just felt I had to say something about DVT's I had a DVT about 10 years ago brought on by sitting a computer for too long. Not something I would like again but my right leg has never been the same again and do have continual pain and discomfort due to damaged valves. Long haul flights seem to get the blame but any inactivity from sitting too long and impairement to circulation can bring on a DVT. A few years back I felt quite strongly about this and felt that the Government were not not doing enough to warn people of the dangers especially as more and more of us are sitting far too long at our computers. And at the time a 14 year old boy hit the news headlines as he'd had a DVT from sitting playing computer games. So I wrote the the HSE and relevant government departments pointing this out and got the usual whitewash back - they really didn't want to know and felt that there wasn't sufficient evidence to show that DVT's could be caused by the situations I have outlined. I felt that at least an A4 poster stating something like "take a break - reactivate your circulation" would be a suitable poster for any office noticeboard - short and to the point - but 'no' they didn't feel it necessary. I just hope none of those who I received corrspondence from don't end up with a DVT and all my warnings will come home to roost and they will think "now where have I heard this before " ! Motto - get up and walk around. The hospital gave me good advice. If you are standing 'move' if you are sitting 'elevate'. But as we all know it is not always possible. But everyone who reads this please do think about your ciculation - if you have never had a DVT I can assue you you would not like one, your leg(s) are never the same again and the after effects stay with you forever. Anyway I have got this off my chest now and so must end - I have been sitting here far too long !

Great product! I suffer poor circulation in my legs and at times it can be very painful. I don't know how it does it, but these gadgets seem to do the trick. I didn't buy mine from High Tech Health but from WeightWorld.co.uk, it was £125 and I got it the next day. It's a different make from High Tech Health's but has worked for me. The pain in my legs after I get home from work is much more bearable. Hope this review helps.
