Realizing I'm the only one logged on so early in the morning (evening for me), I had realized what had been on my mind for quite a while.
The thought of getting a "vest" had been on my mind the last few months.
However, after my experience with trying to get hold of an eFlow, I'm quite hesitant for trying to obtain something that is much bigger, and much more expensive to deal with.
I was able to recall what I wanted to post late last night while dozing off.
I realized one major problem with using a vest in this country would be the voltage range for operation, given the thought that it has to be an AC supply, not DC.
Though the idea of having to deal with "after-service", "repairs", "replacement parts" and "technical support" has also come to mind, the other thought is having to deal with the shipping. First, I wonder whether the vest will pass the docks when importing. The other one, of course is the method of payment. Expensive enough as it is, I'm dealing with a currency much higher than the dollar, so I'd be paying an extra 25% at the most as it is. And, I would have absolutely no help from my insurance, since it is "national health insurance" (spelled "Socialist").
I did remember that I used to have this "hospital green" percussor from many, many years ago, which looked like a power jig-saw with a cup at the end (and was noisy as heck) that I left at my parents house. They may had taken it with them when they moved from Michigan to Colorado. I'd have to ask if they still have it, to ask them to find an Overseas Voltage Adapter Unit with the proper ratings and send it here so I would be able to use it. If, however, they no longer have hold of it, then the concern of getting a vest still holds.
I'm sure many of you still do some sort of PT, either by a vest or whatsoever. I get an occasional percussion from the wife.
My real percussion was from my days of Judo and Aikido, but those days were over three years ago. Now, my thought is that I may have to add that to my daily routine.
