Chi Machine

I want to share with you one of the three greatest wellness products I’ve ever found in my 30+ years of being a holistic healing practitioner!

Aerobically speaking, fifteen (15) minutes on the chi machine = 10,000 steps! Five minutes of lying down – while the chi machine does all the work – is equal to a half-hour walk!

It is the original Sun Ancon “Chi Machine®” – Aerobic Exerciser that is designated a Class I medical device by the FDA and sold by HTE Americas. Below, you’ll see it was featured on The Doctors show, among others.

Great gift for the family or the person “who has everything”

It is GREAT for people who cannot or will not exercise … not to mention any names, of course!

It’s also a great gift for the person “who has everything,” and you struggle to give them something they’ll appreciate more and more as they use it.

What’s more, the whole family can use one, or you can let each person have one. Keep one at home, one in the dorm room, one in the office, and one goes with the family traveler!

In addition, given the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we all must do whatever we can to ensure our continued good health and strong immune systems. The chi machine is one of the 3 things I use to help myself.

I’m “no Spring Chicken!” Yet, I don’t take any medications for anything! The last time I needed meds was when I got Lyme Disease some years ago (2017?) and took a week’s course of a prescription drug!


Don’t Believe Me? Here’s How It Works While You Relax in the Prone Position!

I don’t sell what I don’t use faithfully, and I USE this as a major contributor to my health. Ergo, I sell it. I also use it after moving furniture or doing heavy yard work to get rid of back pain, in addition to its aerobicizing benefits It works like magic on my back after all that muscle straining.

Learn more about why it is so wonderful for your health and, potentially, in relieving aches and pains by watching this short video.


Using the Chi Machine is “Effortless!”

All you have to do is lie down with your ankles on the machine, and it does all the work for you! Beginners may use it for just a couple of minutes. People who are more accustomed to it can use it for twenty minutes, at which point, it is believed that the perfect Ph balance will have been reached.

The Doctors Featured It!

This is one of the best products for overall health that you can buy, and I’ve been using it since 1998! The Chi Machine is patented, trademarked, and registered as an Oxygen Exerciser / Medical Apparatus Aerobic Exerciser.  It is known worldwide and was featured on The Doctors TV show, which presented this segment about the Chi Machine.

Truly, I kid you not. I learned this when there was a major fire near my house, and the whole neighborhood was in danger of going up in flames.

If there were a catastrophic emergency at my home, and I had five minutes to choose what to take with me during my grand escape, the chi machine (along with the cats and credit cards) would be the highest on my priority list. Why? Because of all the physical symptoms with which it helped me. Fortunately, both the cats and the chi machine have their own carry cases!

Is the Chi Machine Safe?

skeptical smiley face with Question marks

winking smiley face with fingers in the A OK positionUnlike other modalities, the chi machine involves NO side effects, disrobing, needles, medications, or anything else that is invasive.

Still, let’s look at the commonsense suggestions that apply to most products.

Contraindications

figure on prohibited or stop sign, pesticides

Although The Chi Machine® Therapeutic Massager is an effective and safe method of massage therapy, do not use it in the following situations without asking your health care provider for medical advice

  • During pregnancy
  • Within three months of having had major surgery or bone fracture
  • If suffering from serious heart disease, or a serious infection
  • When suffering from any bleeding injury

  • If, while using The Chi Machine®, any new or increasingly severe pain occurs, discontinue use of The Chi Machine® and consult your physician.

Also, don’t use it for 30 minutes after eating a meal. (I forgot once and got a bit nauseated and so dizzy that I had to wait a couple of minutes before standing up.)

The Parent Company, HTE Americas, Is Wonderful!

It Chose to Help Me When It Didn’t Have To!

 

smiley face in triangular hat, blowing on a party favor with confetti all aroundI had my Chi Machine® Therapeutic Massager since 1998, and it worked just as perfectly as the day I got it until it fell out of my car and got slammed dunked onto the pavement in 2013. The company, HTEAmericas, is so fantastic that they replaced the chi machine at half price – even though it was over fifteen years old, and the breakage was “my fault!”

In addition, the staff always “bends over backward” to help me with graciousness and competence when I call the company.

The bottom line is that the chi machine has paid for itself over and over again, both in financial terms and in terms of health benefits! The cost was about 8 cents a day over the time period when I had my first machine.  For ordering information, scroll down.


HTE Americas Sells the Original Chi Machine

HTE Americas introduced itself to the United States in 1993, establishing corporate headquarters in New York. In 2004, it established the HTE Americas Headquarters and Sales Office in Los Angeles to serve more distributors and customers. Its many products not only improve health, but the company also offers people an opportunity to earn a residual income on a full-time or part-time basis.

(Note: although I certainly believe in the principles undergirding HTE’s other products, the only one I have used and purchased is the chi machine. Of course, you may purchase other products under my sponsorship. I just cannot describe the benefits from personal experience.)

HTE Americas announced its first-generation Chi Machine, also known as the Healthy Oxygen Machine, in 1990. It immediately became a hot health trend, and, in the following 28 years, the global distribution network expanded throughout America and into Asia, Australia, Europe, and South Africa.


The Chi Machine® – The Invention and the Inventor

Japanese scientist, Dr. Shizuo Inoue, conducted 38 years of research on this process and is credited with the idea of providing a machine to swing the feet, causing a sideways oscillation of the pelvis like the undulation of a fish swimming. He understood the benefits of “passive aerobic exercise” and developed the only true Chi Machine®. He believed that lack of oxygen in the body is a primary cause of diseases, and many doctors now agree, including Nobel Prize winners, Dr. Warburg and Dr. Odeuale.

The Chi Machine Positions

Each of the three positions shown below creates different effects. I add some more hand and arm positions plus move my mental concentration in other ways with amazing changes in how it feels – for the better! You have to experience it to know what I’m talking about! It is so surprising!

The key to getting maximum health benefits is to remain lying down for a couple of minutes after the machine stops and then do a few, specific spine-stretching exercises before slowly getting up. See for yourself in this video.

The Chi Machine® Provides “Passive Aerobic Exercise” to Oxygenate the Body

Why Do You Care?

The Chi Machine® Therapeutic Massager oxygenates and detoxifies the body via “passive aerobic exercise.” It activates your lymphatic system, which is the system that cleans out the poisons and debris in your body. It also aligns the spine via the figure-eight motion caused by the specific oscillation design of the machine.

This “goldfish” motion has helped me with temporary muscle pain relief from soreness, tension, fatigue, poor oxygenation, sluggish circulation, need for stimulation of the autonomic nervous system, and metabolic waste elimination. As reported by many others, it also helps with mental focus, better sleep, plus quick relaxation and stress release.

When you move your body (especially in physical exercise) you activate circulation which drives blood through the body. That provides oxygen and nutrients to your systems.

Similarly, the lymph system is like the body’s sewage system. However, it has no equivalent to the heart which pumps to move things along. Aerobic exercise forces the lymph glands and fluids to work, moving waste to the portals of the body where it can be removed. This helps keep you cleansed, so the accumulation of waste in your body does not stagnate and begin to poison you from within.

The Chi Machine® – My Testimonial

smiley face with red lips blowing kissesThis is a testimonial I wrote years ago about the same “chi machine.”  I am embarrassed by how gushy it is, but it all was/is true. This amazing aerobic exerciser provides great health benefits through oxygenation and circulation in the body. I don’t know what it will do for you. I just know what happened when I used it consistently for a few days. Here’s what I said.

 I’m In Luv!!!

I have discovered a life changing – perhaps life saving – exerciser that actually lives up to its claim that “It does the work. You get the benefit.” It works by greatly enhancing the distribution of oxygen and blood flow throughout the body, thereby changing your metabolic rate, and rejuvenating every aspect of your body, while you just lie on the floor (resting your ankles on the machine), breathe deeply, and think happy thoughts for fifteen minutes!

Are You One of These People?

     It is great for people who don’t have time or want to exercise or who are self-conscious about their bodies and want privacy. I would not have believed it, had I not experienced it myself!

Since at least 1990, I have suffered from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. At first, I thought it was just exhaustion from working a 40 hour week and another 40 or more hours in the same week doing volunteer work at a shelter for homeless people. (I had done that every week since 1987.) But, in 1992, I discontinued most of that volunteer work and my community service work.

Yet, in 1994, I had become so ill that quite literally my consciousness left my body. I lost so much weight, people started the rumor that I had AIDS. I constantly needed to sleep for 4-6 hours after having been awake for only five minutes.

It has been a very slow recovery. Every day – no matter how scorching hot and sultry humid – no matter how frigid the winter – I have had to go to my car and sleep during my lunch hour in order to make it through the rest of the afternoon’s work. And, I have done that, since at least 1990, even while fearing that sleeping in the parking lot could cost me my job.

Still, it was necessary.   …Until I got this “chi machine”… Almost immediately, I did not HAVE to take a nap during my lunch hour! In fact, if I tried to, I could not go to sleep! I suddenly had sufficient energy to get through the whole day at work and an entire evening of work at home, and the energy was alive and evenly distributed throughout the day! It feels just like a miracle!

     Here’s Another Miracle:

On the fifth day, I discovered I had lost 1/2 inch in my chest, waist, and hops, and THREE inches in my abdomen!!!… you know, where men have a “pot belly,” and women look like they will be pregnant until they die. I know, because I matched my measurements against measurements I had taken one month previously.

During this time period, I had not been exercising, because of a back problem. And, I had been eating beau coup ice cream and butterscotch syrup! The only thing that had changed was my having the chi machine to use 15 minutes* in the morning and again in the evening.

Speaking of That, How Long Should You Use It?

     *Note: when I first got a borrowed machine, I used it for 15 minutes at a time. Only when I got my own machine, did I get the instructions, which say that BEGINNERS SHOULD USE IT FOR 2 OR 3 MINUTES, at first, and then work up to 15. So, probably, I got such fast results from “jumping right in.”

Another note: I have been exercising fairly regularly since January, 1998. Rather than losing weight, I gained both weight and inches. Depressing! I guess I must now have muscles AND fat! Consequently, I could not wear my business suits. Nor could I afford a new wardrobe. So, this loss of inches is a real blessing, even though I think I weigh the same number of pounds.

But, I didn’t buy this machine for weight loss. I bought it to help me with the excruciating back pain that I had from osteoarthritis (caused not only by “old age,” but by old injuries to my back – such as the time I started an avalanche in the Rocky Mountains, or was bucked off a horse, or was in a car wreck, or fell off a trampoline on to my head while attempting a back flip, etc.)

Pain Relief Thanks to the Chi Machine

 An x-ray of my back showed osteoporosis (probably created or worsened by my having smoked cigarettes for many years), arthritis, and bone spurs from the injuries. The arthritis literally was dislocating my ribs! And now, one hip is much lower than the other. I was a hurtin’ buckaroo! It felt like my back was on fire all the time, and I could hardly get to sleep, much less stay asleep at night because of it.

After ONE WEEK of using this chi machine, I certainly am not completely cured, buy I am ALMOST PAIN FREE!   I had experienced acupuncture, cranio-sacral therapy, deep connective tissue therapy, Reiki, Kahuna healing, chiropractic, and massage. Everything helped a lot, but then the pain returned. We didn’t know why until we saw the x-ray.

It was the machine that worked out the crooked ridges in my back and reduced the pain. The person who massages my back with peanut oil can see the differences clearly.

smiley face OK signWhat Else Did the Chi Machine Effect?

  • The varicose vein in my ankle is receding and is far less visible.
  • The bone spur on my foot is receding. Every day I see a difference, and often I am pain-free.
  • My vision is improving, and my range of peripheral vision is greatly increased. I know this because of an exercise I tried, which I can do far better than I could just a few days ago.
  • My thoughts are clearer – (finally got some oxygen to the brain!)
  • My complexion is clearer, and I’m losing the appearance of having “jowls.”
  • My neck is much more flexible (it had suffered considerable damage and now is quite mobile with much less pain)
  • The area where I had oral surgery is healing at a much faster rate.
  • It is helping me with lymph drainage.
  • An energy healer who had worked on me a couple of months before I got the chi machine was amazed at how much clearer and healthier my energy field is. It is helping me cleanse and clear not only body, but mind, spirit, and emotions.
  • I CAN SLEEP MUCH BETTER AT NIGHT!
  • Internal (digestive) organs, heart, lungs and immune system feel stronger and clearer. I’m sure this is only the beginning.

A chiropractor asked me whether I would continue to use the machine, now that I have comparatively little pain. I told her “I will use this thing as long as there is electricity!”

The literature states that 15 minutes of using the chi machine is about equivalent to 90 minutes of walking, in terms of body oxygenation. All I know is IT WORKS!


End of Testimonial. That Was Then. This Is Now

Do I Still Feel the Same?

So, that’s what I wrote back in the 1990′s. It is interesting that I see my testimonial on the websites of other people who spend a lot of time selling this machine! I am certified in multiple complementary and alternative medicine modalities. Thus, I do many other things and don’t “push” any products. In fact, I sell only three products, because can always tell a difference for the better when I use them.

With the chi machine, it is especially helpful in relaxing out muscle kinks and contractions. If I am moving heavy objects (like huge plant pots) or moving as in – to another house – I might use the chi machine several times a day to help relieve back pain, in addition to all the benefits of being more fully oxygenated.

Yes, I’m still “in Luv!”

 

Here’s A Clue That You Can Benefit from Using This

A major clue in health evaluation is that your nails and hair are the first to show damage when the body is under stress. They become dry, brittle, and split. The body needs to devote its attention to the vital organs and systems, so they will be served first by the functions of your immune system. I am susceptible to that pattern. However, when I use the chi machine daily, my hair and nails begin to grow and show good health again – within a day or two.   


Purchasing The Chi Machine – Aerobic Exerciser

The last thing I ever wanted to be (even less than I wanted to be a secretary) is part of a multi-level marketing operation. However, I literally believe the chi machine can benefit almost every person of any age and can save the lives of some!

The machine is not cheap. But it costs less than much of the exercise equipment seen on television – – – or the price of the spa I joined and then went to about three times – – – or the price I pay for vitamins and supplements every 2 months! Again, the price worked out to about 8 cents a day, as the machine lasted in perfect condition for many years. Occasionally, there is a sale of about $100 off the normal price.

To me, its aerobic benefits can reverse major symptoms; therefore, is worth much more than I paid for it. Plus, it’s a one-time expense and can be used by many people! If you are interested, see the options below for ordering one for yourself or as a beautiful gift for almost anyone else. It’s great for “the person who has everything” and for people who cannot or will not exercise.

Swollen Ankles May Indicate Venous Insufficiency

Venous insufficiency. Swelling of the ankles and feet is often an early symptom of venous insufficiency, a condition in which blood inadequately moves up the veins from the legs and feet up to the heart. Normally, the veins keep blood flowing upward with one-way valves. When these valves become damaged or weakened, the blood leaks back down the vessels and fluid is retained in the soft tissue of the lower legs, especially the ankles and feet. Chronic venous insufficiency can lead to skin changes, skin ulcers, and infection. If you experience signs of venous insufficiency you should see your doctor. Find out more about chronic venous insufficiency.

The above quote is from Web MD, where you can learn more about this and most other health topics.


Venous Insufficiency

swollen ankle, ankle pain

According to the  Center for Vein Restoration, this condition may be related to Varicose Veins. (That website has GREAT pictures of spider veins and varicose veins to help ensure you can envision each topic and which conditions may apply to you or someone you know.)

Varicose Veins

Often painful and unsightly, varicose veins are visibly bumpy or rope-like and may occur in almost any part of the leg—most often in the back of the calf or on the inside of the leg between the groin and the ankle. Varicose veins can be sometimes be debilitating, limit a person’s mobility, and affect their quality of life.

 

Common Symptoms Include

leg pain

aching, or cramping

fatigued or heavy-feeling legs

itching/burning

swollen ankles

restless legs

ulcers (in severe cases)


Of course, swelling of feet and ankles can be caused by injuries or infections, and it commonly occurs during pregnancies. But, pay attention!

BLOOD CLOTS

The swelling also can be caused by blood clots. “These blood clots can be life-threatening if they break loose and travel to the heart and lungs. If you have swelling in one leg, along with pain, low-grade fever, and possibly a change in color of the affected leg, call your doctor immediately. Treatment with blood thinners may be necessary. Learn more about deep vein thrombosis (DVT).” This quote is from WebMD.


Disclaimer

I am not a physician, nor do I make any claims whatsoever about diagnosing or treating any kinds of symptoms or illnesses. I simply am sharing this information with you. What caused me to write about this topic this month is the simple fact that I’ve noticed unusual swelling in my own ankles. I do far too much sitting in front of a computer and far too much unrelenting standing while doing other chores – particularly when I’m working outdoors on property maintenance. So, I “looked myself up” and want to share what I’ve learned about swollen ankles and to tell you what remedies I’m going to try to see if they work for me. If the symptoms persist, I’ll see a physician for a diagnosis.


Teeter Hangups

The first thing that comes to mind is the Teeter Hangups – an “inversion table.” If you don’t have one, you might remember seeing that “older gentleman” hanging upside down from a contraption and then doing situps from the upside-down position. He appears to be and claims to be “the picture of health” from the benefits of regularly using this inversion table.

head and shoulder view of woman rubbing her back with orange spot indicating back pain

His is the only Inversion Table on the market that is FDA-REGISTERED as a 510(k) Medical Device. Using this is indicated for:

  • Back PainHerniated discs
  • Sciatica
  • Spinal degenerative joint disease
  • Degenerative disc disease
  • Spinal curvature due to tight muscles
  • Facet syndrome
  • Muscle tension
  • Muscle spasm
  • Spinal stenosis

That says nothing about blood circulation, but the fact is that, while you’re hanging upside down like a bat in a cave, all the fluids in your body are rushing toward your heart and head. Your organs also are now “going in the opposite direction,” as opposed to going only Southward as you age. It feels wonderful, as if your organs now are back where they were during your youth. With that combination of goodness, I figure it’s worth a try.

The Teeter Hang-ups are not cheap, but what glorious relief I have felt on my back and how rejuvenated after using one. The trick is not to let it sit in a corner and become a place where you toss things while doing something else in the room.


The Famous “Chi Machine”

Sun Ancon Chi machine helps with circulation

Whereas I do not sell Teeter Hang-ups, I must disclose that I not only bought, but I do sell my Sun Ancon original chi machine. It’s a must-have for oxygenating the body when one cannot or will not get around to doing aerobic exercises.

Five minutes on this machine is equal to a half-hour walk, aerobically speaking! Thus, 10 minutes = equivalent to a 1-hour walk, etcetera. The Chi Machine is patented, trademarked, and registered as an Oxygen Exerciser / Medical Apparatus Aerobic Exerciser  It is known worldwide and was featured on The Doctors TV show,

Japanese scientist,  Dr. Shizuo Inoue, conducted 38 years of research on this process and is credited with the idea of providing a machine to swing the feet, causing a sideways oscillation of the pelvis like the undulation of a fish swimming. He understood the benefits of “passive aerobic exercise” and developed the only true Chi Machine®. He believed that lack of oxygen in the body is a primary cause of diseases, and many doctors now agree, including Nobel Prize winners, Dr. Warburg and Dr. Odeuale. You can learn much more about this on my own Chi Machine Page.

Hey, Lady, Just Tell Us How It Works!

Suffice it to say, a person (man, woman, child) just lies on his or her back, puts ankles onto the chi machine cradle, turns it on, and lets the machine gently sway the body. The outcome is that the whole body is benefiting from the increased circulation of oxygen, blood, lymph fluids, etc. So, I am betting this will help with my swollen ankles symptoms.

Regular Exercise

Of course, I could spend a lot of time exercising to see if that would help; but, let’s face it. I have so much work to do that it is 99 point 9 % sure that ain’t gonna happen. So, I’ll try these things and will let you know if they work.

If you have solved the swollen ankles problem – without medications – let us know. We’d love to hear your suggestions.
