Howdy folks, I'm Bob Schrupp, physical therapist. Brad Heineck, physical therapist.
Together we are the most famous physical therapist on the internet, in our opinion, of course, Bob
Could this be the answer to your sore and painful feet?
This is the Hobsfu Shiatsu foot massager with heat. Now, that sounded good Bob. Yeah, it did.
It works even better than it sounds. So,
we were sent one of these and
This is something I can tell you very honestly I would never have bought in a million years
But I am changed, it changed my mind completely
so
We got to lour the people in. Oh yeah, that's working Bob.
They're just flying in. So, If you are new to our Channel, please take a second to subscribe to us
We provide videos how stay healthy, fit, pain-free and we upload everyday. Also,
Please go over to the Facebook and like us, Bob and Brad because all this week again we're giving out those cool vibes
Oh, yeah, we're putting out the vibe right, Brad? Right, things are flowing today. Dumber and Dumber
We're not gonna have that conversation again are we? No, no, we're gonna put that one aside. So this is it. This is the
Hobfu
shiatsu foot massager
Fairly light I didn't see the weight on there, but we did need both of us to lift. No
No, it's it's light. I mean I can lift it with one hand. Yep
So it's it's you know, if you're elderly don't worry about moving it around the room. It's works out pretty good.
So it's got the two slots for the feet
And it's got five buttons here and I'm gonna probably discuss the buttons right now. If you don't mind. Yep, go ahead. So it's got a timer
10, 15, and 20 minutes that you can set it at. Okay, okay.
it's got three strength modes and
The first one is probably if you're elderly and you have sensitive feet
You definitely want to start on this no matter who you are. Right, Get that feel for it. Don't just jump in. Yeah, right because
The higher levels are pretty intense, at least to some people.
So maybe I should explain you know, this is massaging the bottom of your feet
But it also gives compression around the whole foot at the same time
So we're talking about soft tissue work and compression to get some
It's not like those rollers in there that are going and like I said, you're squeezing the foot together to some extent
It's gonna help fluid move and help, you know, get some muscles all relaxed
Yeah, and it like I said, it's got the three strengths. So we'll go back to that
the first one is for the elderly the second one is if you're the average person and
The third one they said is if they're you're like a young athlete, but I don't maybe I'm a young athlete, Brad.
Oh you are Bob. I liked it and so did my wife
Yeah, you know comparison to something. There are some other ones on the market
I was looking up and they were complaining that it didn't get the heel
Oh, this one definitely gets the heel
So it seems like they've kind of put together a better version of this. It's got three different modes. I
Mean, you know, you're just gonna have to try them cuz they call them different kneading and stuff and massaging it
I just try them because I can't describe them to you. All right, they're all different
I like the first mold better. I did to a more consistent. The other one was intermittent. So everyone that's each to his own
Yeah, it's got a light when you turn it on actually if I turn this on right should turn it on, right?
Oh, there we go
this light right here is gonna be red blue or
blue red together combo
Yeah a combination. The heat is just either it's on or it's off so you can't vary it and the heat is
This is in Celsius was 40 degrees 40 degrees Celsius at 55. I looked up the conversion chart
So that's 104 degrees Fahrenheit
To 131 degrees Fahrenheit. I did not feel like it was that warm at all. Yeah, it's not an aggressive heat at home
It's not gonna burn. Yeah, I mean, it's I think it may be more in the wintertime. You feel it
maybe you know if your house is very cold, but but
And my daughter my daughter tried my wife tried it my daughter said she felt it eventually
But we were all wearing socks when we did it. So I think that kind of takes away from it a bit
so
Size foot
You want to stick your feet in there, Brad? Oh, yeah
Prepared I got the shoes off and I wore good socks today with no holes in them.
So let's go. By the way, before we do that right just real quickly
there is a zipper here and
You can take this zipper and you can take this section out here and wash it. So it's got it, the liners washable.
I Bring this up right before Brad sticks his stinky feet in it. No Bob
Everything is up to that up to snuff today- All right, All right. So you got some clean sock. Yep
I even took a shower. All right, well good to hear because I can tell when it doesn't happen.
Can I go? Yeah, go ahead go.
So size of foot you just push that to go on. Yep. Oh, okay yeah it was blinking. Blinking
Yeah, Bob was using this at home so he really got
to know it well.
We've been using it every night
Size foot I have a size 11 and a half/ 12 foot and
It feels like you know, maybe it could go one size bigger. You still have room comfortably
Yeah, so you're not pushing your feet in there. They're going fine
So it's probably a thirteen because when I looked online and they what they said it was 45 yards
So, but you said that the metric system,
45 would probably make sense
Well, I just know what I buy cross-country ski boots
That's how their size and I understand that's you know, a metric or Europeans size
I don't know what it means. So but so let's talk about maybe right now
my wife, you know, she's been complaining to me about she's having pain on the top of her foot when she walks and
Being a typical therapist who's tired of seeing patients by the end of the day
I just like yeah, you're probably tying your shoe too tight, right?
Take some ibuprofen
so anyway
Finally after you know putting up with this for around three weeks this shows up. Miracle of miracles, right?
She uses it like three four times and the pain is gone
So really I'm uh, you know, I'm the hero again cuz I brought it into the house anyway, right?
You didn't tell her it just came by accident. No, no It came by accident.
so the other one was my daughter came to visit and I didn't realize but she said she's always having pain when she walks
in her feet. So she tried it two or three times
And she did two consecutive walks where she had no pain. So there's something to it
I mean will it treat plantar fasciitis and all that? I don't know. I mean, it's certainly it's certainly not gonna hurt it
It's certainly gonna help, you know, work the bottom of the foot. Right.
so that's what I've been pushing the button here in the last while Bob was talking and
I went up to the most aggressive setting right now it definitely you know gets in there
There was a little more compression
I can really see where it's gonna help blood flow and lymph people be pushed up from the foot
It might help neuropathy because you get more blood flow within neuropathy
You know, I'd be careful if you have a lot of numbness and you know that you know
You want to make sure you're not injuring your foot. The downside is It's fairly pricey. It's a $139.99
So that's not cheap. Well compared to some things, you know, it's all relative Bob
But I mean if you have a personal masseuse every night. And the other thing, I don't know how it's gonna hold up
I hope it's gonna hold up well. I mean, but it's become a part of our family now
So at night even though I don't really have foot problems. I was having a little bit
Yeah, I use this every night now. I do. And my wife uses it usually kind of couple a couple sessions. Yeah
Oh, there's one you put your foot in this no. No, we do it separately. Just
Wondering
You know puts my wife to sleep because like you said there's that
Soft sound so you can kind of mess it over to your wife something. Yeah
So I can watch whatever I want to watch
Honey, won't you put this on I can go ahead watch whatever TV show I wanna watch so. She better not watch this video
Oh, yeah. Well, she doesn't watch any of our viedeos
So anyway, I would never have bought one of these for myself
But I would now. Sure, and I am gonna buy one for my daughter. Oh, no
Oh, she won't watch to you know because I. Oh yeah, you want to surprise don't you? Yeah, I want to surprise her, yeah.
So for you know birthday or Christmas or something else you think of an occasion right Memorial Day coming up?
Yeah, the Memorial Day gift. No, that's Labor Day. She'll take
It either way. Alright everybody, if you want one we'll put a link down below. Sure. So, uh, thanks for watching. Yup
