Lying with your feet in the Zen Chi machine's cradle, simply set the timer for the desired length of exercise, this will start the exercise movement. Relax, clear your mind and you will feel your whole body rock from side to side as if you are being massaged all over. The more you relax the greater the sensation. The results of this non-impact exercise movement are excellent.

Beneficial Effects

The Zen Chi machine has a stimulating effect on venous and lymphatic circulation, as well as an incredible stimulus to the digestive tract, which boosts a sluggish metabolism and enhances digestion. The increased blood flow to the capillary banks in all extremities creates a marvellous tingling sensation, resulting in harmonising effects, which assists in relieving the symptoms of insomnia and nervous tension as well as some circulatory problems. The Zen Chi Relaxerciser machine is a device used to stimulate the body in order to improve one's health.

It produces a motion through the recumbent body, similar to a swimming fish, which opens the vertebrae alleviating stress and tension on the spinal column.

The Zen Chi machine's rhythmic motion is core driven, producing a metrical displacement which sends a balanced energy wave through the body. This unique wave-like motion replicates exercise and promotes the flow of blood to capillary banks in all extremities of the body, restoring supply to areas that may have suffered poor circulation.

Body detoxification is improved via enhanced lymphatic circulation and abdominal peristalsis (involuntary digestive tract muscles), which results in a higher metabolic rate.

These boosts to the anatomical system will assist to relieve the symptoms of:

Lethargy
Insomnia
Stress and tension
Weight problems
Digestion imbalance
Aches and pains
Arthritic pain
Lack of exercise
Poor posture

Place the Zen Chi Relaxerciser on a hard floor or bed, never on an unstable surface such as a springy bed or soft mattress. Put the plug into the electricity outlet. The user lies on his/her back in front of the equipment and places the heels on top of the equipment as shown in the figure above. Turn the timer to the desired time (15 minutes maximum). For the first exercise session, set the timer for 5 or 6 minutes. Increase the duration of your exercise gradually. Your arms should rest freely by your side whilst exercising. After exercising, remain lying down for 3-5 minutes. You may feel a tingling sensation in your legs and hands after use. This is normal. After 3-5 minutes of relaxation, stand up and massage your joints and body. Never use the Zen Chi Relaxerciser for more than 15 minutes at a time.

For Optimal Results:
Drink a large glass of warm water before and after each exercise session to help aid blood circulation and digestion.

Wear loose and comfortable clothing.
Never face drafts from a fan while exercising.
If you sweat during your exercise session, be sure to cover yourself to prevent chills and colds.
Exercise twice daily for 15 minute sessions on the Zen Chi Relaxerciser to achieve your goals.

Children should use only under adult supervision.
Do not use immediately after eating.
Do not use under the influence of alcohol.
Stop your exercises immediately if feeling dizzy or uncomfortable.
Do not twist your body while the Zen Chi Relaxerciser is in use.
Do not move the Zen Chi Relaxerciser while in use.

Main Body
The patented Zen Chi Relaxerciser has a movement of 140 +/- 10% oscillations per minute and has a 50 watt motor for durability. This does not affect the speed. The Relaxerciser is especially designed for the larger and often heavier frames of Westerners.

The timer goes to 15 minutes (the maximum recommended time).

The swing travel is 37mm, which is the optimal movement for the back.
