Question
I was wondering how often you suggest this machine should be serviced? and an estimate of the servicing cost?
Answer
Dear Denise,
Thank you for the inquiry. The only item you will have to get serviced is the turbine. We suggested maybe 3 times a year, depending on the usage. The stainless steel tub can be cleaned depending on usage as well. It would depend what issues you have with the turbine, but it should not be more than $100.00.

I was told by a chiropracter to use a rolled towel to give my neck the curve I need I had a whiplash about 12 years ago - car accident. My neck is very weak and there is discomfort that I am beginning to notice more often. I sleep on my back. Is this what I need?
Answer
Original McKenzie Cervical Roll will certainly work better than a rolled up towel. Additionally, you may also wish to consider looking at Therapeutica Pillows, item# 101ICIMM and Perfect Rest Pillow, item# 652ROCMM.

Question
I am 74 years old and my shoulders are getting very slumped and I'm getting a humped look to the top of my shoulders. Will this help correct that?
Answer
Dear Ms. Fannin:
Thank you for your inquiry. Dorsal Vest will certainly help your posture when it is worn. Since these types of devices oppose the bodys natural tendencies, it may take some time to get accustomed to wearing a vest. Please consult with a chiropractor or your physician about a regiment for wearing a dorsal vest.
