FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1. What is a MFLEX massager?
The MFLEX massager is designed to aid in the recovery process of muscles for
people who suffer from injuries or muscle aches.
2. Who can use a MFLEX massager?
Created with all walks of life in mind, the MFLEX massager can be administered by
physical therapy specialists in an office setting as well as individuals at home, work
or any other acceptable setting.
3. Why use a MFLEX massager?
The MFLEX massager can be used before an exercise routine to prepare and loosen
muscles as well as after an exercise routine for faster recovery.
4. How much pressure do I need to apply?
Pressure tolerance varies from person to person. It also varies depending on what
part of the body you are working on. For psoas, a deeper penetration would require
greater pressure to reach the psoas muscle unless a more accurate trigger point
is needed. Your body weight should be the maximum pressure required. Use your
arms to regulate the amount of weight you are applying to the MFLEX massager
during psoas work.

5. How long do I need to apply pressure?
Given that you do not have any serious injuries or conditions, 10 minutes is an
average amount of time spent working on the muscle or group of muscles you are
working on.
6. How frequently should I use the MFLEX massager and how soon can I see
results?
Depends on how often you work out. You can use it every time before or after your
training sessions. You are also not limited only to pre & post exercise. Use it when
your muscles are sore or tight and you need a release.
