Overview

All three run at 1 to 21 Hz. The Mini works from 1 to 8 bar, and the XL from 1.0 to 4.0 bar in 0.1 bar steps. The Pro has a built-in compressor, an 8-inch touchscreen, five applicator sizes and a second massage handle, and the XL uses a German KNF air pump.

Prices are published: $3,949 for the Mini, $10,349 for the Pro and $13,349 for the XL, each with a one-year limited warranty. The seller says the machines are built from imported parts but does not name the factory, ships only within the United States, and positions the devices outside diagnosis or treatment.

Where it stands out. Radically cheaper, direct e-commerce purchase, one-year warranty.

What to check. The seller frames these devices around wellness rather than diagnosis or treatment. Confirm the exact cleared indications before making any clinical claim.
