16. Does it have to be used on the floor?
In order to work properly in creating the
regular rhythmic motion through the legs and hips, the Exerciser
needs to be placed on a firm surface. This is because the swing
action would be affected if the surface is unstable. A carpeted
floor is therefore an ideal surface for the Exerciser to be placed
on, and the user must use a yoga mat or comfortable rug or blanket
to lie on to avoid friction and abrasion.
It is also ideal to have a comfortable resting
place for the head. A mouse mat is a popular choice, as it has a
smooth surface which allows the head to wobble around naturally,
without causing the user’s hair to tangle, or a thin pillow
can be used beneath the neck. The main point is to be completely
comfortable, and to make sure there is no friction or abrasion of
the skin through rubbing against a hard surface. It is worth experimenting
to find out how to suit your own body’s needs.
The Exerciser must not be placed on a bed,
though for infirm or elderly users it could be set on a firm surface
beyond the end of their bed, or a therapist’s couch which
remains firm and solid.
