The Chi Vitalizer is a heavy-duty chi machine, weighing 16 pounds, with 40 watts of power! It is designed for professional use, but priced so that you can take advantage of its benefits in the comfort of your own home.
Most other swing machines are in the 25-30 watt range! This unit has the benefit of a variable speed control, so you can set it at a speed that feels comfortable to you. There is no clinical data that says there is only one correct speed. We recommend that you start at a short amount of time and a slow speed. Then monitor your results and increase the time and speed at your own pace.
The footrest has cushioned padding for your ankles, alleviating the stress and rubbing that can be a problem with other machines. The movement also has a slight arc at the ends, increasing the range of motion your body experiences. This engages more of your leg muscles, so you get a more complete exerciser. We call this "elliptical motion or orbit".
This unit is a heavy-duty unit that offers you the option, with it's variable speed control, for the user to choose the speed that they are most comfortable with. The unit has a built in timer that automatically shuts off at the end of each exercising session. The padded ankle rest is removable which allows easy disassembly for easy cleaning. The Chi Vitalizer has an extra large base that makes it more stable, Rest assured that this unit will not shake, rattle, or roll.

A Look at Certain Benefit Details:
1. Oxygenates The Spine / Safeguards Your Health The spine is the central pivot in the human body and considered the most important element of the skeletal system. Once injured, it may result in health problems and limitations of other limbs. The Chi Vitalizer helps relax the spine, the nerves, and the muscles that are under constant pressure while supporting the body.
2. Eliminates Fatigue / Improves Sleeping Disorders If you neglect your health, your body deteriorates. Research shows that lack of exercise is the leading cause of illness, including heart disease, poor blood circulation, and weight problems. The Chi Vitalizer is specially designed to improve your blood and lymph flows, which in turn increases metabolism, strengthens the immune system, enhances athletic performance, massages and relaxes your muscles, and promotes the release of built up toxins that collect naturally in your body. As the body becomes healthier, it has more energy during the day, and you sleep better at night.
3. Increases Metabolism - Reducing Fat Metabolism is the chemical process occurring within a living cell or organism that is necessary for the maintenance of life. During metabolism, substances within the cell are broken down to create energy for vital processes including the respiratory system, blood circulation, and over-all energy. The breakdown constitutes a burning of fat. The Chi Vitalizer increases metabolism. Using the Chi Vitalizer for 5 minutes has the same effect on your blood and lymph flow as walking for 30 minutes!
4. Prevents Cardiovascular Disease As a person gets older and exercises less the arteries within their body begin to harden. If this condition is coupled with poor dietary habits the person may be a candidate for diabetes, decreased circulation, a stroke, or in some cases a heart attack. The Chi Vitalizer has a profound impact because it gently massages and exercises the body without putting undue exertion on the heart. And, because the Chi Vitalizer is a massager, the affect is reduced or normal blood pressure.
5. An Ideal Health Care Device Massage therapists consider the Chi Vitalizer to be the ideal health care devise because it allows the user to relax while also receiving a healthy dose of exercise. Many practitioners and health professionals provide lateral motion machines in their offices for patients to use for 5-10 minutes before a massage therapy session to fully relax the patient for a deeper massage. Again the main function of the Chi Vitalizer is to relieve back pain, muscle pain, neuralgia, increase circulation, oxygen, and promote complete relaxation. It does this by stimulating the sympathetic nervous system, spinal column and vertebrae. It helps deliver increased oxygen to cells, which aids in cell repair and rejuvenation. Also, by increasing blood circulation you will increase your over-all energy level.
6. Increases The Immune System Productivity The use of the Chi Vitalizer invigorates virus resistance within the body by creating a natural defense against viruses. Increased circulation increases the body's ability to fight off infection and repair damaged cells while also improving metabolic efficiency.
7. Improves Blood Circulation Doctors agree the lateral motion machines have the ability to normalize blood circulation is due in part to the machine's ability to relax the user and stimulate blood flow. As people grow older, fat deposits and other impurities restrict blood vessels and arteries. Heart attacks are often the result of restricted blood flow to and from the heart. Because the Chi Vitalizer improves circulation, the heart arteries benefit from increase oxygen intake, which in turn results in less restricted arteries. Patients who suffer from diabetes, lymph edema, cancer, heart abnormalities, and various other medical conditions use the lateral motion technology.
8. Acts As A Multi-functional Health Care and Replenishing System The Chi Vitalizer impacts the users health in a variety of ways. It relaxes the body, focuses the mind, increases internal metabolism, stretches muscles, and improves circulation. The user will begin to see immediate benefits including improved health, flexibility, and relief from chronic pain due to illnesses, back problems, diabetes, and lymph edema.
9. Recuperates Proper Oxygen Levels In The Body After using the machine, the user will experience a state of deep and satisfying relaxation. The feeling is a result of the increased oxygen levels within the body. The effect called "Chi Rush" is experienced once the lateral motion session ends. A user will feel the numbness from the bottom of the feet all the way to the head, and sometimes a tingling sensation.
10. Detects Advancing Illness The Chi Vitalizer's constant movement will alert the user to any sensitive areas of the body. Continued use will aid the user in determining problem areas within the body and relieving the symptoms of those ailments.
Other Considerations: Please note. Use of the Chi Vitalizer has no real contraindications. People with any sever health problems should consult their physician before using the Chi Vitalizer, or any other kind of lateral motion machine. Pregnant women, for obvious reasons, should refrain from use of this technology. For best results it is recommended that one drink 8 ounces of water before and after a session, on an empty stomach. Elderly and infirm persons should start off at very slow swing velocity, and gradually build up to personal comfort threshold.

"A light and sound machine is a brainwave entrainment tool. The method by which this
entrainment occurs is known as the Frequency Following Response (FFR). Through
the use of audio (headphones) & visual (eye frames with LEDs) stimulation,
listeners are gently guided into specific brainwave states. Each audio beat and
pulse is a specific frequency. Our minds "think" in terms of frequency.
Brainwaves change frequencies based on neural activity within the brain, be it
by hearing, touch, smell, vision and/or taste. These senses respond to activity
from the environment and transmits that information to the brain via electrical
signals. Hearing + vision are considered the favorable senses for affecting
brainwaves safely. By presenting these beats & pulses to the brain, within a few
minutes, the brain begins to mimic or follow the same frequencies as the stimuli
(the beats and pulses). This process is referred to as entrainment. In essence,
these instruments speak to the
