Jade Bed? - Fibromyalgia Message Board

AJGal · 06-17-2003, 04:20 AM

Some friends at work who claim they have fibro keep bugging me about trying what they call a jade bed. they say it massages the pressure points and makes you feel better.
Granted i would try anything that would help but im feeling skeptical about this because i cant stand to be touched on my back let alone something mechanical working on me.
has anyone heard of this my boyfriend is driving me nuts to try it!
thanks

I found a website about it [url="http://migunusa.com/modules.php?name=Migun&func=one"]http://migunusa.com/modules.php?name=Migun&func=one[/url]

AJGAL,
The bed on the website looks and sounds like what they use in a chiropractor's office (but its called a traction machine by them). It feels okay when they do it for 10 min., but I think if you stayed on it too long, you might get sore. I bet they want a pretty penny for that thing.

I bought a massaging pad (I think my Homemedic) that is body length and has all kinds of combinations of stimulation and its under $100 (but I really can't remember exactly how much).

I'll be watching to see what other says about the jade bed or if anyone has the kind of massage pad I do.
