First minute of the vid and immediately useful info (I've learned my back pain is inflammation). Wish all youtube vids got to the point this quickly. No waffling about subscribing etc. Just info! Thank you.

Very informative. No waffle, instead emphasis on the salient points. Liked and Subscribed. Many thanks!

I'm a licensed massage therapist and I use this on painful trigger points and to break up deep myofascial restrictions. Not all pain is inflammation that needs to be avoided. More often than not, pain in a tight muscle is either a trigger point or the result of lactic acid that is trapped in the tight muscles.

How far out to the sides of the lower back can we go? I noticed you use the machine on the spots where kidneys were marked, or close. And could you also make a video for sciatica pain relief? Thanks.
