Frequently Asked Questions
- Why do I need to allow my body to adapt to the machine?
- The SilverMink
is similar to cardio exercise machines you find in gyms, such as stationary
bikes or treadmills. The exercise performed is essentially intense physical
activity for the body. The primary component of the SilverMink is a
motorized footplate, which generates a spiral vibration at a speed of
7,200 rpm. The footplate also has reflexology-designed bumps intended
to stimulate the reflex zones (points) in your feet. The spiral vibrations
and the stimulation of your reflex zones (points) causes blood circulation
throughout your body to increase by 54.4% as it would if you were riding
a bike, jogging or running. If you are usually not very physically active
or experience low or improper circulation, a sudden increase of blood
circulation may cause dizziness or vomiting. Gradually allow your body
to adapt to such vigorous physical activity by taking the recommended
introductory steps in using the SilverMink.
- Why do I feel like falling off or that I am losing my balance
when the footplate is spinning and I am standing on the SilverMink?
- This is usually
an indication of an inner ear, a psychological or a foot problem.
This condition can be improved by moving into a squatting position
on top of the footplate.
- Why do I feel itchy during or after use of
the SilverMink?
- There are nerves adjacent to your small blood vessels and
as your blood circulation quickens the small vessels expand, which
triggers your nerves and thus the nervous system. This itchiness is
a positive side effect and will disappear through repetitive use of
the machine. Do not scratch your skin vigorously; lightly pat the
itchy area with the palm of your hand.
- Why do my feet blister or feel
like they are burning after using the SilverMink for 5 to 8 minutes?
- Blistering
on or burning sensations in your feet are normal reactions to the
machine and will gradually improve. Uric acid and water content are
generally deposited in the lower extremities of your body (i.e. your
feet). The spiral vibrations generated by the circulating movements
of the footplate will cause water molecules in your feet to surface,
hence blistering may occur during the use of the machine.
- Why do I
feel discomfort in the chest area after using the SilverMink? What
can I do?
- It may be an indication of a lung or bronchus problem. Use the machine
in a seated position, first placing your toes on the footplate (the
presentation step) for 15 minutes and followed by lying face-up (with
your upper-back on top of the footplate) for 10 minutes, then lying
face down (with your chest/stomach area on top the footplate) for
5-10 minutes.
- Why do I feel like my feet and / or calves are swollen
after using the SilverMink?
- The machine increases blood circulation
throughout your body. If there is any blockage in circulation in your
legs, you may experience swelling in the area. Lying your calves on
the footplate for 5-10 minutes can treat this condition.
- Why are my
feet swollen after using the SilverMink?
- If the swollen area is the area around your ankles, you may have
a lymphatic gland disorder. If the swelling is on the dorsal of your
feet, it may be an indication of weakened kidney function. The swelling
is not a serious side effect and will improve within two months if
a daily regiment of exercise is followed. The machine will help restore
your organ or gland to normal functioning. You should also bathe your
feet in salty lukewarm (40 degree Celsius) water in the evening, which
will help reduce the swelling.
- Why do both feet turn red and become
swollen after using the SilverMink?
- This is a sign of either poor blood
circulation in your body or nerve ending deterioration. Women with
this condition may have a gynaecological problem and men may experience
chronic weakness or fatigue. The recommend exercises are to stand
on the machine for 15 minutes, followed by the sitting position for
30 minutes.
- What is the youngest age at which a person can us the SilverMink
- Anyone
of any age can use the machine. The primary benefit of the exercise
is improving blood circulation, which helps to maintain good health.
You can use the machine as part of your regular preventative and therapeutic
health care routine.
- Why is the vein on the dorsal of my feet swollen
after using the SilverMink?
- This indicates that the uric acid level in your blood is high. It
is suggested that you perform the standing and squatting position
on the machine. You will notice an improvement in the swelling after
a period of time.
- Why does my Achilles tendon turn red and swollen
after using the
SilverMink ?
- You may have haemorrhoids. You should stand on the machine
for 15 minutes and sit on it for 10-15 minutes. You can place
a blanket or something thin and soft on the footplate before you
sit on it to make it more comfortable.
- Why do I experience stomach
aches after using the SilverMink and need to defecate two or three
times a day?
- From the point of view of Traditional Chinese Medicine,
clotting causes pain and pain is relieved when the clot is removed.
It indicates that bowel movement has increased because your body is
getting rid of unwanted and toxic bodily waste. Continue to use the
machine for 5 to 7 consecutive days and your condition may improve,
depending on the state of your body and health. It is normal and necessary
for you to remove bodily waste from your systems.
- Why do I feel dizzy
and nauseous after using the SilverMink?
- Users with low blood sugar
and red blood cell levels may experience dizziness and nausea if they
exercise to vigorously the first few exercise sessions. These conditions
are similar to a head rush or exerting yourself in any physical activity.
You should allow your body to adjust to the exercise by increasing
intensity on the machine gradually. Use the machine while sitting
in a chair with feet on the base for a few sessions and increase the
amount of time within each session. Then work up to a standing position.
- Why
do I have difficulty moving my legs after using the SilverMink for
a period of time.
- Slight blood clotting may have formed in your previously
injured areas, thus obstructing the flow of energy throughout your
body. Continue to use the machine to help remove the blood clot and
restore the normal flow of energy.
- Why do I experience diarrhea after
using the SilverMink?
- In general, strong functionality or movement
of your large intestines causes diarrhea, while weak functionality
causes constipation. The machine will help restore your digestive
system to normal function. Your condition will improve if you use
the machine for a week.
- Why do I experience
- dryness in my mouth
- Increase blood
circulation, requires moisture, similar to any physical exercise,
leaving the mouth dryer than normal.
- fever and/or coughing
- Lymph glands
are stimulated through the exercise. This activates white blood
cell activity causing white blood cells to attack dormant viruses
in the body, resulting in a fever or coughing in some cases.
- sweating
- Sweating is the result of
an increased metabolism rate.
- sneezing and/or
- The increase
of blood circulation, and vibration of villi within the nose will
stimulate sneezing.
- passing gas, after using the SilverMink?
- The
bowel movement is enhanced, thus causing one to pass gas.
- Can a person with asthma use the SilverMink?
- People on medication for asthma usually experience skin problems,
and the functioning of their stomach and digestive system is weak.
The exercise can help enhance the functionality of these organs, as
it helps accelerate metabolism and normalizes your body to perspire
normally. It will also reduce the necessity of using steroids and
restore the skin condition.
- Why do I feel thirsty after using the SilverMink?
- This condition will
improve the stimulation of the reflex zone on the feet. Users with
poor metabolism usually have toxic debris deposited in the body. This
disposition is stirred up by the exercise and makes the acid level
higher in the blood. This is why people with high acid levels in the
blood tend to get tired easier. Drink a lot of water when you are
feeling sleepy.
- Why do I feel cold and/or have a runny nose after using
the SilverMink?
- Feeling cold or having a runny nose may be indications
that you have not fully recovered from the flu or may have been infected
with a flu virus. Enhancing the stimulation of the reflex area of
Nasal Sinus and Frontal Sinus and drink lots of water will help the
case.
- Why do I need to urinate more often than usual after using the
SilverMink?
- It is because the metabolic enhancement of the kidney and the
muscle function of the bladder have not been normalized. Stimulation
of the reflex area of kidney, ureter and bladder will help improve
the condition within 3 to 5 days.
- Why does my nose bleed after using the SilverMink?
- You may have been
exposed to the sun for a long time prior to using the machine. Your
body is at a vulnerable state at that time. Continue to use the machine,
first with the preparation step (toes only on the footplate) for 15
minutes, and second by standing on it for 15 minutes. This will help
your body recover to its normal and balanced state.
- Can I use the SilverMink
before or after eating?
- Yes, you may use the machine immediately before
or after eating. SilverMink is recommended after eating as it can
increase your level of metabolism and help with any digestive problems
you may have.
- What is the effect on athlete's foot? How long it will
take to see the effect?
- Athlete's foot is usually caused by fungus infection
in the skin between the toes. Proper sanitation routines are essential
to eliminate the problem, including sanitized shoes and socks, but
using the machine can help as well. After using daily for 15 days,
you will begin to see an improvement, as testified by many users.
- Can
the SilverMink be used during menstruation?
- Yes, menstrual cramps can be
alleviated through SilverMink. The menstruation period may also be
shortened.
- Can stretch marks caused by pregnancy be reduced by using
the SilverMink?
- Yes, lie face down with your abdomen on the footplate.
By focusing your excercise routine on this part of the body, improved
blood circulation will help transport oxygen and nutrients to the
damaged skin, causing it to repair itself naturally. This will help
the stretched skin to contract, thus restoring elasticity to your
skin.
Consultation of a Physician with regard to the following conditions before
using the SilverMink is advised
- Can a person with a pacemaker (heartbeat regulator) use the SilverMink?
- If
a person has poor blood circulation, the functioning of the heart
is also weak. A person's heart rate reaches a maximum of 72 to 75
beats per minute while using the machine. Thus, the SilverMink can
provide the positive effects of active physical activity and improved
blood circulation without a significant increase in heart rate, which
is ideal for anyone with a heart condition.
- Can someone with uremia
use the SilverMink?
- Yes, SilverMink can help your body excrete excessive
amounts of urea and other nitrogenous waste compounds through urine.
Intensifying the stimulation of the kidney reflex zone in the feet
will help restore the function of the kidney and improve the condition.
- Can
a person with asthma use the SilverMink?
- People on medication for asthma
usually experience skin problems, and the functioning of their stomach
and digestive system is weak. SilverMink can help enhance the functionality
of these organs, as it helps accelerate metabolism and normalizes
your body to perspire normally. It will also reduce the necessity
of using steroids and restore the skin condition.
- Can diabetics use
the SilverMink?
- Through the high frequency spiral vibration on the
foot reflex zones, blood circulation is increased and thus the pancreatic
function is enhanced. SilverMink will help to improve excretion of
waste compounds from the body and accelerate the metabolic rate.
- Can
gouty people use SilverMink?
- The SilverMink is 100% effective for relieving
gout. It is recommended that you sit on a chair and place your feet
