A day of off-road testing with Bluetens, the portable physiotherapist

Karting? It’s not sport!

To start the Bluetens afternoon, we went to the Ile-com-France region to Review karting. The idea, of course, was to see what the performance of the “electrode beast” was. in real recovery after exercise. The effort? This is where you see a dozen journalists laughing … “But we’re going to go karting, what effort are you talking about?”So indeed, if we had just taken our karts and rolled around in a merry-go-round around the track, we could have been clever. But that was without counting the presence of a young karting champion, Olivier Lombard, which doesn’t need to be clever. Karting, he has been doing it since his 10 years.

So, let’s go for 40 minutes of karting in three laps, one for heating, the second for classification, the third for the final with the champion who may stop putting his foot on the brake pedal this time. Thanks to the presence of this young Sébastien Loeb from karting, we journalists we were very clever. We were told to be careful, not to press like crazy on the accelerator when cornering, especially since most of us weren’t really used to karting (except in our crazy youth). We had demonstrations of this type, which we listened to wisely:

Therefore : we (almost) all did the exact opposite of the instructions and there was damage. In the first round, it was still fine, but as soon as Olivier Lombard passed our level, weirdly, everyone suddenly decided to put himself in danger. The result was immediate: shocks, pileup, runways not very regulatory, a shock to the head, broken ribs and even… a vomit (we don’t swing the colleagues, what happened there will stay there). Thank you for not doing the same stupidity as a series of ten rabid journalists from the track at your place, thank you.

This is where we see that the communication on the effectiveness of the product was well established, since … what have we done to repair our injuries? We tested Bluetens, of course!

After the effort, the comfort

First thing to Review therefore when returning to the “base”, it was Bluetens. Four small electrodes that are super simple to put in place on the traumatized area. Here, by pure coincidence, we have a photo of a journalist to whom your dear editor ABsmarthealth has quite involuntarily hurts a little during a muscular pileup (he was trying to overtake us, no, but …):

And there, the slogan of Bluetens: “Get Better” makes sense. Small discharges land after a few seconds, and deliver, depending on the area, a tingling sensation, relaxation or even a tightness if the electrodes are incorrectly placed. Here, the reporter avoided the scratched area, it is not recommended on a wound. Several recommendations were made to us, the Bluetens is to avoid pregnant women, pacemaker wearers, it goes without saying, and it is not recommended for people suffering from serious problems with blood circulation.

The application is very simple to use, there are several programs that we will describe in a full Review of the device soon, this article aimed at telling the use of Bluetens in “Extreme situations”.

We could not get a spectacular idea of ​​the recovery of the damaged journalist, however, for testing the object on the neck, it is true that the sensation is interesting. At small volume, the impression of movements in “waves”, a little louder, we would almost turn around to check that nobody is massaging us… and at full power, the neck wiggles by itself, and it becomes quite uncomfortable. But for the recovery of karting, it was welcome, since ultimately, this after all banal effort still stiffens the members by being stressed on the wheel and gave us aches all over the place.

Fitness, balls and yoga

In order to perfect our Review in situ… Or to finish off, the designers of the smart health connected physiotherapist offered us a fitness session alongside a yoga session to end the day. During the fitness session, we were able to Review the effectiveness of the Bluetens functionalities duringan abdominal and sheathing session. Suffice to say that the session was not super serious since we were presented with this:

The first drawback we encountered was pair in Bluetooth with a smart health connected object and a smartphone in a room full of ten people. Each device has a serial number but depending on the start of synchronization, and the memory of its holder, each one simultaneously forgot which one was who, and clicked on the other one, which had the effect of desynchronizing them progressively. Be careful if many of you are testing it in the same place.

We didn’t go through with the 20-minute program, but we still felt the effects of the fitness program for the abs. The program accompanies you during your series, and amplifies the intensity of the stimulation by electrodes as and when … so much so that you feel your work is really supported.

We pass you the pictures of fitness and yoga where we were quite ridiculous, like Sunday geeks who go to play sports, and also because we do not want to post our colleagues if this does not suit them.

Review of the day

To conclude this rather fun day, and interesting from the point of view of possible Review variations with the product, it is interesting to note that the effectiveness of Bluetens is not the first remarkable thing, the feeling when it is worn can be very pleasant, and give the impression of a real massage, but maybe the real potential benefit of the object is discovered through use.

During recovery sessions, it is clear that the product has shown its capabilities, because the relaxation was there. To support the effort, ditto. However, having tested it at health home for a severe backache due to poor recurrent posture, I positioned the electrodes on the “knot” of tension and during the course of the electrode, I had rather want to go to the physiotherapist, than to continue the session. Indeed, it was unpleasant or even painful. I the therefore really advise for very specific uses, such as recovery and during exercise. This is where it shows its full potential!
