The instructions tell you to use it maximum 30 mins, but I was so excited I tried 5 programs for 10 mins in a row my first time. When I got up I felt a little shaken, like when you get an incredibly intense Tui Na or Thai massage. And it hurt my lower back and hips, in a good way, but stronger than I anticipated. For the first few mins after I felt a little woozy and achey (not pain, just a soft discomfort) and regretted doing it for so long. Half an hour later I suddenly felt inspired to cook. Now, I struggle a lot with low energy levels, not helped by all-day aches in my back and shoulder and neck. I found myself cooking, feeling motivated to clean, and even cooked a little for my housemate. She gave me an amused smile because of how uplifted I was - and I found myself wondering out loud whether my mood shift was due to the massage/stretch. Suddenly, I realised I not only was in zero pain, but was much looser and less conscious of my body because of how relaxed and loose my entire body felt. I found myself moving bigger, and while my body usually makes me feel old, it felt the way it used to feel - like it wasn't carrying the weight of the world on it. I have no clue which program did this, but I'm absolutely in awe that something as simple as lying down for a little bit and pressing buttons can give me the effect I usually pay $150 a session for. Very grateful for technology, and excited to see how this impacts my health. Also, certain motions felt a little like when my Tui Na practitioners put me on my back and manipulate my shoulders and neck from underneath - it honestly was just as soothing and releasing. Lastly, a word of warning for those of us with abnormal lengths of torso or neck - I have both because I am a giraffe - you may find certain massage programs don't quite hit the perfect spot if you follow instructions of where to put your shoulder in relation to the neck/head area (see instructions). I found that I occasionally needed to wiggle up and down a little to find the perfect spot rather than solely trusting the measurement as every body is different. But that tiny issue is worth it for the result I have. I am currently typing this at the laptop, where I am usually in pain and now just feel loose. So grateful and glad I bought this on a whim during Prime Day. It would've been worth full price as well. Read more

As a student of Classical Chinese Medicine, I’ve studied the anatomy of the human body in detail and particularly the spine, which is not only an intricate structure with many, many moving parts but bound by a system of sinews and muscles that together make it incredibly strong yet flexible. Unless you (like so many of us) suffer from a spinal injury or condition, it is easy to take the amazing spinal structure for granted. Keeping the spine healthy is, like most moving parts of the body, in large part a matter of not only strengthening but, crucially, maintaining flexibility. Most of us, my self included, don’t stretch our bodies as much as we should to maintain health. The spine in particular is difficult to stretch adequately. The large and very tough Anterior Spinal Ligament is epitome of this. Very difficult to stretch and maintain flexibility but so important to keep it in a flexible condition. The Klug Ultra Stretching Massager is an excellent way to keep our spine supple. I bought this several months ago and my wife and I use it daily. When we first got it, I needed to keep it set on the lowest intensity setting to keep from having a sore back. I’ve since gradually increased the settings and now can use it on the highest setting every day without pain. Our family, adult son and his wife, brother in law and wife, have all tried it and ordered one after getting home. This is a ‘must have’ accessory to keep your spine working as well as it did when you were young. Read more

I wasn't sure at first if this was a stretching tool or a massager, but it doesn't really matter because it works. This massager isn't your typical one. It's a device for stretching. In fact, I was prepared to give up on massages in the classic sense. Since Klug focuses more on pain management and tiredness I decided to give them a try even though I usually feel even more sore after a massage session. The air pressure on the mat stretches your body as you lie there. At first, it felt a little weird, but eventually I grew used to it. As a point of comparison, there are three pressure settings. To my amazement, this product worked! Personally, I believe that the "after effect" is where this product really excels and should be highlighted more. Since I work from home, I frequently utilize it when I'm too exhausted to work further during breaks. It truly makes a difference. The remote control is in Korean, so don't give up. The manual has instructions in English, however it's a little inconvenient. It's easy to memorize because there aren't many buttons, and after a while, I thought the Korean characters were sort of cute. I would nevertheless rate the product a strong 4.5 out of 5 because, even with the remote, the advantages greatly exceed any small drawbacks. Read more
