FAQ's - Frequently Asked Questions

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.
