    Vest

    I tried the vest once and didn't like it. I get manual CPT and I wouldn't switch. I felt the vest was very constricting, and I didn't like that it bounced you around either. If it is the only alternative give it a try. Something is better than nothing...also I found as much as we all hear it...
