Guest guest Posted December 8, 1998 Report Share Posted December 8, 1998 Hey Guys!!!! I was in a tone store last weekend and they had a Thumper out on the counter for people to try. OHHHHHH MY GOD!!!!!! It was fantastic!!!! For those who are new in the group...we've had quite a discussion over these. It's a VERY heavy and powerful hand-held vibrator device, but it doesn't vibrate sideways. It has two rounded areas the pump up and down and literally thump your muscles. It's VERY expensive. I think this was somewhere between $210-$240...can't remember. I resisted buying one when people in the group were raving about them. But now, I'm thinking...hmmmmm, if someone asks for a wish list...I'm definitely putting this on it. (Those of you who have them and are using them...you might just drop a line to the group, saying you have one...just in case someone wants to ask you questions about it.) My legs were sore from walking the malls...my foot was hurting from the toe injury I have (from clogging too much)...and so, I just stood there, with no pride, in the store, and used that Thumper on my thighs and calves. Ohhhhhh, was it nice. I didn't buy it, because my husband reminded me that we bought a VERY strong heavy-duty vibrator from Sharper Image about 10 years ago and never use it. So, we came home and tried the one we'd bought. NOT THE SAME!!!!! That pounding action of the Thumper is really different. I know I saw a similar one, not a Thumper but one that used the up and down motion, in another store and for MUCH cheaper...but I couldn't tell you if it would work as well, and I can't remember where I found it. Point is. If you have muscle tightness with your RLS....check out this type of vibrator...the kind that sends up and down motions to your body, rather than just vibrating back and forth. I KNOW the Thumper would be great. I'm just not sure you can't find the same thing for less. Well..I'm off to find my wish list and a rich relative.
