The Gentle Stretch is made of natural Malaysian rubber. No ingredients are added to lessen manufacturing costs and hence reduce strength and durability.

The top and bottom surfaces of the Gentle Stretch are coated with pashm, the fine soft wool of goats. Other manufacturers use a flannel covering that is less expensive. It is also prone to stretching and twisting, becoming uncomfortable during repeated therapy sessions.

Air release in the Gentle Stretch is accomplished by twisting a knurled knob incorporated into the air bulb. Other manufacturers use a less expensive plastic clipping device.

And most importantly, we stand by our one year warranty.

There is a magnet each side of center, feng chi, and one in the center, feng fu. The use of magnets for healing purposes can be dated back to the 16th century. Studies have shown that magnets enhance the blood's ability to carry oxygen which could help alleviate pain.

PRESCRIPTIONS: When prescribed by a doctor or chiropractor, the Gentle Stretch is often reimbursed by medical insurance under HCPCS billing code E0855. Lee Harbor Stores cannot bill insurance.
