I don't have a bone in this issue, but I do understand where Lannette is coming from. I also respect NoraKate feelings regarding the FB.

But, NoraKate did start a thread on fascia with links to studies, etc. Maybe it would have been better suited for her to post in her own thread, since 99% of the VFers in this support and uses the FB.

I've decided to buy a FB. I don't care about cellulite. I'm more interested in using it more therapeutically. Anything to help my elbow, knees, neck.....

PayPal option missing?

Gosh, reading this thread is so addicting. I've decided to buy the Fascia Blaster too but couldn't find the PayPal option once I had it in my cart. Anyone else have a problem with this? Should I be suspicious? I just want the option of a refund or cancelling in case there are problems with shipment and quality like you guys have mentioned. I also emailed their customer support.

Thanks!

I ordered mine on Monday and it is scheduled via UPS to be here Saturday. On the fascia blaster FB page women have been saying it has helped them tremendously with constipation! My doctor recommended fascia release for me on my stomach for that reason but the person I went to didn't do anything (seriously, nada). So I am also excited for that possible benefit. Yes, a very addictive thread!

Ha ha yes - this is no lie. I've never really had issues in that "area" but I was still shocked how "blasting the belly" had such a profound impact on the GI system!

In fact, it's often recommended to try and schedule your blasts around times when you will be home and near the bathroom.

I think that's really cool and inspiring.

Do people use this for other things other than cellulite? I was thinking this would be good for muscle soreness. I have very tight trapezius muscles and was wondering if this would help

For me and DH yes! We sodded part of the yard Saturday and I used it and he didn't. I'm the one with back issues and no additional pain Sunday. He walked like an old man with new hip replacements. He let me use it on him before when he was doing some stonework for garden beds, he does footers and all this **** with concrete and he was NOT sore he said after or the next two days as it was a big project. I'm pretty sure there's a money back guarantee for 90 days, and I'd think less shipping which was like$15!

Thanks! I think when I get my paycheck on Fri, I'll splurge and get one. Heck, might even try using on DH to see if it helps his shoulders too.
