Our feet and back are under great strain each and every day, making them
especially vulnerable to tenseness, muscle pains and hardened muscles. The
MEDISANA FRI
massager lets you give your feet and back a treat, helping
them to relax after a long day.
The massager offers you a range of options for achieving this:
• Upper and lower back massage
• Foot massage
• Reflex zone massage of the feet
Each massage can be combined with heat treatment. The unit also allows you
to gently heat the vibro-node surfaces and activate the infra-red light at the
same time.
This promotes relaxation and has a soothing effect on the muscles.
The unit is also equipped with acupressure massage nodes for a soothing reflex
zone massage. This type of massage is based on the knowledge that each
organ and part of the body can be has its own specific reflex zone on the soles
of the feet. When these zones on the soles of the feet are stimulated, nerve
impulses are transmitted to the brain and relayed from there to the organs or
other parts of the body. The reflex zones can be used to stimulate or soothe
individual organs, stimulate the circulation and relieve pains.
