It took over 4 and 1/2months for me to feel like a human being again. Now, I just never hurt. Some get really quick results; some, like me, do NOT!But once you have a life-changing experience with them and your life is returned, it is so hard NOT to be passionate about it!Jacque Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 25, 2000 Report Share Posted June 25, 2000 Nikken now makes a pad and a mattress with the space age foam---since Americans are not accustomed to the firmness in their original pads and mattresses. The pad is 2 " and the mattress is 6.3 " . but now with the new materials, they are both pliant and responsive and pressure sensitive areas supported --rather than irritated.
