    Gallery Image

    127mm Directional Jet

    The 127mm directional jets provide an intense, pressure point massage. These are particularly effective at treating knotted muscles in the back.

    75mm Directional Jet

    This style of directional jets gives a targeted but less intense pressure point massage. It's very effective for a more prolonged treatment of tired muscles.

    75mm Single Spinning Jet

    The 75mm single spinning jets offer a similar effect as the larger 127mm variety but given their smaller size, the kneading effect is lighter and more focused.
