Interventions
- DEVICE
-
Combined heat and acupressure
Press the start button to activate the automatic mode. When the start button is pressed, the device operates for approximately 40 minutes. When the start button is pressed, acupressure massage is performed with a single back-and-forth cycle from acupressure bar No. 1 to No. 18. The device then performs back-and-forth acupressure massage between acupressure bars No. 18 and No. 13 for the remaining time. After operating for 40 minutes in automatic mode, the mattress heating unit, the acupressure bar heating unit, and the acupressure bar movement are all turned off. 1. Press the shoulder button. The acupressure bar operates in the neck-to-shoulder section (acupressure bars No. 1 to 6), and both the mattress heating unit and the acupressure bar heating unit are activated. 2. After operating for 20 minutes in manual mode, the mattress heating unit, the acupressure bar heating unit, and the acupressure bar movement are turned off.
