Mmmmassage

I've had back problems for a number of years. It all stemmed from spending a lot of time writing a really intense hand-written letter on a surface that wasn't the right height for my chair. Ever since that night, my upper back has just gotten increasingly worse. The only thing that gives me even the slightest bit of relief is a massage. But since I'm currently boyfriend-less, I've been having to do without. Imagine my delight when I came across this Takemi Jade Vista 5000 Massage Bed.

The description practically makes me weep: It uses a special wavelength of light called "Far Infrared," which allows for deep penetrating therapeutic heat to the muscles; the design of the bed promotes proper vertebrae alignment to help relieve muscle spasm (which is what my doctor says is wrong with my back); and it applies "deep rolling massage" to the upper and lower body. They say that all of this not only helps you feel good, but also promotes circulation and detoxification for overall health. Fine, fine, fine. All I care about is the back soothing! It's got kind of a steep price for home use -- though that website does offer a practically half-off sale price with a coupon code -- but I would definitely go knocking on the door of any chiropractor with one of these bad boys.
