Frequently Asked Questions
MassageMouse sends various patterns of electronic impulses to
your muscles through the massage pads. Your muscles respond to the
impulses by contracting and relaxing rhythmically. The contracting
and relaxing of your muscles produces soothing massage sensations
that are similar to that given by a massage specialist.
Massage Mouse uses innovation of Human Bioelectric Emulation
technology. There are other electronic massagers out in the market
that use similar technology, but most of them only provide one
"tapping" sensation. Your body will get accustomed to that one
particular sensation and it will eventually stop responding to it.
On the other hand, MassageMouse produces various kinds of massage
sensations in a random fashion so that your muscles are always in
for a surprise every time you use it.
Before applying massage pads, clean your skin first if you use
skin cream or if your skin is dirty. If the pads become dirty, you
can wash them using clear water or rubbing alcohol.
Depending on frequency of use, the pads can last from one month to
several months. If you find the pads lose their adhesiveness and it
is very difficult to make them adhesive again by applying drops of
clear water, or if the pads are worn out, you need to change the
pads. Extra massage pads can be ordered from
www.hi-dow.com/MassagePads.htm.
To change the pads, just unsnap the button on the back of the pads
and clip on the new pads. Once you put a new set of pads on, the
device will work like new again.
Make sure that the protective plastic covering the massage pads
have been removed. The massage pads are water activated. Before each
use, dip your fingers into some water and rub the water onto each
pad. Apply the pads immediately to your skin when they are still
wet.
Remove the old pads and replace with new pads about once a month to
ensure maximum effectiveness. Also, remember to place the pads back
into the storage tray right after each use to prevent the pads from
drying up and picking up dirt.
The pads must be moist and sticky to work. Pads that are not
moist enough will produce a weak and stinging sensation. Before each
use dip your finger into some clear water and rub the water onto the
massage pads. Apply the pads immediately to you skin when they are
still wet. Make sure that the pads are making full and firm contact
with the skin.
Worn out pads may also cause a stinging sensation. Replace the pads
as need. Even when you feel stinging sensations, Massage Mouse is
safe. You just need to make sure that the pads are moist.
- Check the wire connection to the pads and make sure the plug
is securely plugged.
- Make sure the batteries are in good condition.
- Check the pads are moist and not worn out.
- Turn the switch off then turn on again.

You can use the Massage Mouse pads on almost every muscle and
joint area on your body. Do not apply the massage pads near the
heart, on the head, above the neck, in the pubic region, over
scarred areas, on the throat or in the mouth. As a general rule
of thumb if you have a muscle or joint that is hurting, put the pads
on or around the area always making sure both pads are on muscles.
The best way to relieve your pain is to find the pain points and
apply the pads there.
Massage Mouse provides passive exercise to cellulite areas and helps
to shape your body. This is ideal for women to use on their
abdominal muscles after giving birth, and for anyone who lives a
sedentary life style.
Elderly and people who are forced to sit for prolonged periods of
time can use Massage Mouse on all different muscle groups to
maintain muscle tone and prevent stiffness. Massage Mouse is also
used to help relieve tired, achy, strained muscles and to give you
relaxation and a deep soothing massage.
You can use it as often as you like. You can use it from 20 to 60
minutes each time, 2 to 3 times per day for better and faster
improvement. There are NO chemicals or drugs involved. It is very
safe for long term use.
Massage Mouse is designed for your personal use and is not
intended to replace any health professional care.
When in doubt, we recommend that you consult with your doctor first.
