Warning:
DO NOT USE any massager on your neck. The neck is not generally
a fragile structure but in some people, massaging the neck can lead
to serious adverse effects. A particular case of brain artery damage
was reported in 2004 in a study by Arthur C. Grant, MD, PHD; Norman
Wang, MD. They suggested that a specific warning of the risk of stroke
and injury to critical blood vessels would prompt more cautious use of
electric massagers on the neck.
Stroking Legs: If stroking the legs, always stroke toward the heart as
this travels in the direction of the normal flow of venous blood.
Pinching of the skin: When used correctly, Thumper® does not
pinch. If the massager is tilted over excessively, loose skin could be
forced into the gap between the massage sphere and the plastic hous-
ing, pinching the skin. To avoid this, always keep the massage spheres
and thumper action perpendicular to the body.
Itching may occur if:
• Irritable material or clothing is used between Thumper® and the skin
(e.g. synthetic materials).
• Left in one spot too long (over 60 seconds).
• The relative humidity of the environment is quite low, during the dry
winter months, for instance.
Tickling: In the legs, tickling is a normal reaction. Tickling will subside
after approximately 5-10 seconds with Thumper® “Parked”. Feet will not
tickle if Thumper® is used on self, but may tickle when a person places
it on another person’s feet.
