Test condition
I have had it for over a year now and I continue to use it regularly on the Achilles tendon as soon as it becomes painful again. In 2016, I managed to heal from a plantar aponeurosis and I was able to maintain an adequate training for my preparation for La Rochelle marathon.
My review
The device is easily transportable, easy to use and efficient. In 2016, I was able to maintain a marathon training plan by limiting my pain with weeks of training up to 120 km. On the negative side, a small beep sounds every 3 seconds during the treatment, it can be disturbing, but you quickly forget it when you're watching TV. It is sometimes difficult to start the countdown (especially on the Achilles tendon) in the "laser head press" mode but it can be started in another mode.
Conclusion
After using it on my plantar fasciitis I think I am now cured. For my Achilles tendon, I have greatly limited the pain and I use it to relieve myself as soon as it comes back after substantial training (long run or interval training). The price is high but I am convinced of the help that this product has given me to beat my record during the La Rochelle marathon.
