LifePro [New Improved Version] Chi Machine - Chi Swing Machine for Passive Aerobic Leg Exercises - Exercise While Sitting or Laying Down with The MediRipple Leg Shaker.

Why is Amazon selling this on the UK market? The machine is designed for the US, with a US wall plug and a 110v spec. UK uses 240v, as well as a completely different plug. What a waste of time unpacking, re-packing and returning. Amazon, why don't you check products first?

I absolutely love my LifePro Chi Machine. I use it every night before bed as part of my wellness routine, and it consistently helps me wind down, loosen up, and feel lighter. The swing motion really supports healthy lymphatic flow and circulation, and the infrared setting is a standout feature — the gentle heat eases tension in my legs and makes the session even more effective. It’s low-impact, easy to use, and perfect for days when I don’t have the energy for a full workout but still want to keep my body moving. It helped with my neuropathy. This machine has become a non-negotiable part of my nighttime routine, and I truly feel the difference when I skip it. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a practical, convenient way to support mobility, relaxation, and overall recovery. Not noisy, could fall asleep. Great price for the size and value.

Received on time and in good order. Do your own research about how and why these machines work. You will be pleased to find that this company has great product support and the price compared to the great features is a fantastic deal.

The ankle cradles are hard. It hurts the ankles. The ankles hurt by the time the 10 minutes are up. Wish there is a default time of 5 minutes. Not sure how the massage and infrared red light works when you are lie down and your ankles are on the ankle cradles.

It took several days, 2-3 sessions a day, to figure out how to comfortably use this machine. I have had a (undiagnosed) sacroiliac joint problem for almost a year - basically back pain above my pelvis to the left of my spine. Last month, my left hip was starting to hurt/seize up followed by my right hip, since my gait is off balance because of the back pain and walking 2-3 miles a day. Walking was getting harder and harder and I was getting worried about my long-term mobility. For the record, I'm short and have chunky calves. This machine is supposed to be used oriented with the handle facing away from you and the infrared lights under your calf muscles. My calves are too chunky and my legs are too short to do this comfortably; the IR light domes poke into them. As others have mentioned, the ankle cradle is too firm and uncomfortable to use. I tried a towel but it kept slipping. Lifepro included a couple of cushy sweatbands that I, at first, tried on my legs but it was too awkward because my most comfortable position was with my heels on the cradle rather than my ankles or calves. So I put the sweatbands on the cradle itself and it's better if not great. I also turned the machine around so the handle was closest to me and I just let my calves hang, swinging freely with the machine's movement. I have Lifepro's IR flashlight and it works well, but I think the use of IR here is questionable and kind of gimmicky unless you have calf problems in that specific spot. Likewise, I really doubt this can take the place of cardio and, coincidentally, I was keeping track of my blood pressure at my doctor's request at the same time I first started using the swing and my BP didn't noticeably improve over a 2 week period. YMMV. But if you're immobile, chances are it will help you feel better, looser, and more relaxed, if you can find a comfortable position. Even with these various discomforts, the machine helped my back and hips after the very first session. Now, I do two sessions a day, 5 minutes in the morning and 10 minutes before bed, usually on the lowest speed, and I'm experiencing a lot less pain. For this reason alone, it's worth the money. Two things I would change: 1. Design the machine so it will stand up on end, making it easier to store between uses. I can't think of a reason why the end opposite the handle needs to be rounded except aesthetics. 2. On manual mode, remember the last speed setting. It doesn't matter if you're using manual or auto mode, it starts at 8, where the speed range is 1-12. Also note that if you have knee problems (I do) this machine can make them worse. Experiment with speed, leg placement on the cradle (heel, ankle, calf), even whether your toes point straight up at the ceiling or off to the sides. I sometimes bring one knee to my chest and let the other leg swing, then switch. It all makes a difference whether the swing makes my knees ache.
