Revitive Medic circulation booster.

[Nelly1]

Has anyone tried the revitive medic?

Just thought I would ask on here and get some feedback on whether they are worth the expense.

Thanks

Hi

I posted about this last week.

But unfortunatey I had already bought one.

I am struggling with it on level 4 lol, I'm thinking about selling it on because if I can't cope on level 4 how am I going to cope with intensity they suggest.

Its a weird sensation.

Some people might find it helpful tho.

Below is info from the company

They say -

The Revitive Circulation Booster has an intensity level of 1–99 for the feet. You should set the device to a level where you feel a strong, comfortable muscle contraction, which may feel like a tingling or pins and needles sensation. Most people use Revitive at intensity 40 or more, and you can start slowly increasing the intensity until you achieve this. You can also look for other signs that you've reached the correct intensity, such as your feet and ankles rocking,

thank you, I have Fibro rheumatoid arthritis spondylitis and degenerative disc disease. I suppose it depends on the person, a bit like medication, they all work different depending on the individual.

I am going to give it a go and see how I get on.

Thanks

have a look on Amazon there are cheaper alternatives on there.

I looked at the Revitive medic for both my husband and I to use, was shocked at the price. So I looked on Amazon and got a similar one for about £100.

My husband uses it to prevent cramp in his legs. I use it just to get my circulation in my legs going, it helps with the pain. It can also be used as a tens machine so is great for my hip, lower back and shoulder pain.

I think it's probably as good as the Revitive machine but much cheaper.

thank you

Welshcatlady My one has them pads too, maybe I should try that part of it before I give up on it ☺️

[Welshcatlady in reply to saxcat]

Yes using the pads on my hips and back is great, definitely reduces the pain. In fact so good that I also bought a small TENS machine about the size of a mobile phone to take on holiday with me.

I have had a couple of different makes as I find they help restless legs for me.I now use a smaller type which is a rubber mat with a rechargeable pod that 'press studs ' onto it. Bought online from around £30 max.

I find these more convenient and take up less room.

I suggest you make sure your feet are dry before you use yours as damp feet will pick up more connection which heightens the sensation in your feet.

E3178 That was one of the reasons I bought it for too , restless legs

hi Nelly1, I have it and I’m opposite of you in that I have it on 99 and can barely feel it. I was told to put cream lightly on soles of your feet to help get a reaction. If I don’t put cream on I feel nothing at all.
