Do you have trouble exercising because it is too painful or you just don't have enough time? I have tried many different forms of exercise but found that it was hard for me to remain consistent with any of them. Regardless of the type of exercise, I was usually forced to stop because of pain. Due to my arthritis, I have found that even walking can be difficult at times. After years of trying various forms of exercise equipment I finally found one that was easy to use and very relaxing. The best part of all was that it did not cause any pain because there is no pressure or tension applied to any part of the body. This amazing machine is called the OxyPro, formerly known as the Oxyflow.

SO, WHAT DOES OXYPRO DO?

Oxygen is one of the key elements in maintaining good health. Most people do not have enough oxygen intake. Instead, they are taking in a lot of junk food and drink. In order to function properly your blood cells, brain cells, muscle cells and all vital organs must have adequate oxygen. Oxygen helps your cells metabolize nutrients for energy, maintenance, repair and healing. Oxygen starvation of cells in the body can result in: immune disfunction, cardiac symptoms, sleep and respiratory disorders, blood chemistry disturbance, intestinal problems, anxiety, depression, headaches, fatigue, stiff neck, shortness of breath, dizziness, to name but a few health problems. Unfortunately, the most effective way to acquire sufficient amount of oxygen is to exercise and many find that they don't have the time or they just aren't able to. Doing 15 minutes on the Oxyflow is equivalent to taking 10,000 steps, or walking about 1.5 hours in terms of calories burnt and oxygen used.

HOW DOES OXYPRO WORK?

The OxyPro supports health without energy loss, body stress, or effort. Exercise with the OxyPro is done while reclining and relaxed, with weight removed from the spine. The work-out is done while lying down with no pressure or tension applied to any part of the body. The OxyPro moves the entire body, but most importantly, it is moving one of the largest muscle groups in the body, the legs. This motion causes the blood to efficiently circulate throughout the body. The cells absorb oxygen, and toxins are removed. The machine weighs 12 pounds and features a timer control along with a variable speed dial with quiet operation. It was designed to help relax the body with a gentle side-to-side motion. After plugging the unit in, you simply lie back with your ankles on the OxyPro. I usually place a pillow underneath my back and head and I use ankle bands for added comfort and support. After setting the timer and speed dial to the desired amount, a gentle swaying motion begins in the legs and works its way up the entire body. This motion has been shown to temporarily increase blood flow, oxygen and nutrients throughout the body.

WHERE CAN I FIND THE OXYPRO?

Fitness trainer and former US Aerobic champion Brenda DyGraf, has helped to bring the OxyPro and several other pieces of equipment into the fitness industry. They are made available to us through the Home Shopping Network. The OxyPro currently sells for $99. There is a similar product available called the Chi Machine and it costs $480. For nearly $400 less, the OxyPro, in my opinion is practically the same machine. Shopping through the Home Shopping Network, there is always a 30 day money back guarantee and there is never any obligation. I have been amazed at how much this machine has helped me. It is so comfortable and relaxing and this form of exercise does not increase my arthritis pain. There are so many people who have trouble exercising for various reasons and many who can't even get out of bed. This machine effectively increases bloodflow and circulation to every part of the body. Perhaps you might know of someone who would benefit from this machine or maybe you would like to try it yourself. You will find a link to the Home Shopping Club at the bottom of this page. There you can read more about the OxyPro and you can even purchase it on line. I have also provided a link to the Chi Machine website. Feel free to compare it to the OxyPro. I think that you will find that the OxyPro is much better priced and I can confirm that the quality of it is excellent. I wouldn't trade mine for anything.

***** UPDATE 11/23/01 *****
The brand new OxyPro machine (formerly known as the Oxyflow) is now available at the Home Shopping Network. The item number is #524-783 and Home Shopping Network's order number is 1-800-284-3100. Due to the popularity of this item, it may sell out again. Since this is a brand new unit, I expect that they will try hard to bring it back and keep it in stock. To check on the status of the OxyPro, you can call Home Shopping Network's toll free customer service number at 1-800-284-3900.
