If you have problems with any of the following:

The Sun Ancon / Sun Harmony Chi Machine is the Original Chi Machine and may be beneficial to you. The Original Chi Machine is also known as the Aerobic Exerciser, the Passive Aerobic Exerciser, or the Chi Exercise Machine.

Dr. Shizuo Inoue, Chairman of Japan's Oxygen Health Association, with over 38 years of experience developed and designed the Original Chi Machine by Sun Harmony / Sun Ancon. Dr. Inoue's design was based on human physiology allowing the body to work effortlessly with its own natural frequencies and figure 8 movement providing maximum oxygenation benefits. The Original Chi Machine has one oscillation speed of approximately 144 cycles per minute. This oscillation speed is the speed most beneficial to the heart.

Dr. Jan Kirschner wrote: "One of the wonderful benefits of The Chi Machine is that it allows the body to work effortlessly with its own natural frequencies. The 144 cycles per minute (oscillations), is both a multiple of the average pulse rate (72) and the cerebrospinal pump rhythm (12). Each person's body is influenced by the sum total of all the physical, emotional, mental and chemical forces that it is exposed to, and its ability to respond effectively to those forces."

Dr Inoue's design also focused on five main engineering features: Full Body Exercise, Ease of Use,No Injury since you are lying down, there is no tension applied to any part of your body because your body is being fully supported in that position. Your heart rate and blood pressure also do not increase, Maximum Workout in Minimum Time, and Portability.

The Original Chi Machine has been patented in several countries including the United States (patent # 510 7822), Great Britain, Japan, Germany, and Australia. It is registered as a medical appliance by the FDA in Japan’s Medical Affairs, a Class II Medical Device in Canada, and is a Class One Medical Device approved by the FDA in the United States.

How the Passive Aerobic Exerciser Works

The Original Chi Maschine's simple nature increases detoxification and healing. It oscillates from right to left, or left to right, approximately 144 times per minute. In just 15 minutes it gives your body the equivalent oxygen benefit of 1-½ hours of walking. It may firm your hips, thighs, and abdomen and often will support weight loss. The figure-8 motion (similar to the movement of a goldfish) has marked beneficial effect upon the human body, relaxing nerves and muscles as well as relieving tension in the back neck and shoulders. It performs a pure aerobic activity and operates at the best oscillation speed to create an oxygen surplus in your body. It can rejuvenate every aspect of your body while you just lie on the floor with your ankles resting on the machine, breathing deeply and thinking happy calming thoughts. It relaxes you and often promotes a more restful sleep. It does the work and you get the benefits of improved circulation of blood flow and lymphatic system.

You may be wondering how this increase in oxygen takes place. The motion created by the Chi Machine (similar to Trager Massage) stimulates and relaxes the sympathetic nervous system, this reaction causes the bronchi and alveoli (tiny tubes which branch out from your lungs) to relax and expand. These tiny bronchi and alveoli connect through a semi-permeable membrane with the tiniest blood vessels of your circulatory system. With the expansion of the bronchi and alveoli, more oxygen is able to pass from your lungs into your circulatory system. Once in your circulatory system, the oxygen travels to all the cells in your body.
Medical researchers understand that the vertebrae are the channels for our nervous system. In four legged animals, the spinal column wobbles slightly from side to side as they walk. Important internal oxygenation is occurring during their walking. With us however, there is little vertebral movement during walking because we only go forward and backward on two legs. Humans do not realize that this can be associated with pain – the situation we create by walking results in low lateral vertebral movement plus downward pressure. The Chi Machine is designed scientifically to allow the legs to sway while the body is in a relaxed, reclined position. The effect of the stimulation to our sympathetic nerves varies in relation to the swing amplitude, frequency and duration of treatment. Individuals need to be careful in using this type of equipment to avoid possible negative effects, that is why the Original Chi Machine is the only one approved by the FDA as an aerobic exerciser to be completely safe and smooth in its swing operation to avoid unnecessary side effects.

Chi Machine Benefits

Cellular Activation: Massage stimulation to the sympathetic nervous system opens up the bronchioles to provide maximum oxygenaccess to your lungs. Simultaneously, the blood flow to and from them is increased. This enhances oxygen exchange from the lungs to the blood and then to your body cells. This will excite cellular metabolism.

We all are aware of the importance of oxygen to our bodies. According to Ed McCabe, author of Flood Your Body With Oxygen, by living in an oxygen-deficient environment and not feeding our cells the proper oxygen and nutrients needed for cleaning out toxins and wastes, our body fluids and blood can and will become dirty and toxic. A lack of oxygen weakens our immune system, which may lead to viral infections, damaged cells, bacterial growths, inflamed joints, serious heart and circulatory problems, toxic buildup in blood and premature aging.

Otto Warburg, a Nobel Prize winner, showed that the "cause of cancer is the replacement of of the respiration of oxygen in normal body cells by a fermentation of sugar". Simply put, cancerous cells cannot live and develop in the presence of oxygen.

Spinal Balancing: Your body is relaxed in a supine position allowing no weight on the spine. This unit can have a correcting influence in certain conditions of spinal misalignment. It has been said that 80% of Chronic Diseasesare Linked to the Spine.

Cervical Vertebrae: Migraine, insomnia, dizziness, amnesia, numbness in facial nerves, ear inflammation, ringing in the ears, high blood pressure, pustulence, tonsillitis cataracts, myopia, sore throat. Thoracic Vertebrae: Swelling Thyroid, hardened neck muscles, stiff neck, pain in upper body nerves, numbness, lack of strength, tracheal inflammation, asthma, heart disease, liver disease, decreased stomach function, diabetes, allergies, inflamed kidneys, arthritis, rheumatism, hardening of the arteries, stone formation, apoplexy, decrease in immune system function. Lumbar Vertebrae: Constipation, dysentery, hernia, varicose veins, period pains, sciatica, painful knees, difficulty in urinating, too-frequent urination, weak legs, painful soles of feet, uremia. Sacrum: Different leg lengths, bladder inflammation, tilted womb, inflammation of the caccum, hemorrhoids, difficulties in getting pregnant. Coccyx: Painful Tailbone

Blood Production: Blood is produced in the spleen and spinal bone marrow. The Chi Machine's massage action on the spine stimulates the Sympathetic Nervous System which increases the spinal "marrow" blood production. Anyone who suffers from anemia may benefit from this massage action.

Restoration of Balance to the Autonomic Nervous System: If the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems fail to maintain a balanced functioning, problems such as insomnia, excessive dreaming, digestive problems, stomach pain, anxiety, constipation, palpitations, extensive forms of aches and pains as well as mental stress may surface. The Chi Machine® influences the sympathetic nervous system so it can restore the vital balance it needs to function at its best.

Exercising Internal Organs and Building “Chi”: (“Chi” is a Chinese word referring to the life force or life energy, Chi increases the feeling of aliveness and well being, Chi is the permeating energy within the universe, Chi creates vitality): Western medical science is beginning to consider ancient eastern traditions. These eastern traditions emphasize healing and good health based on a life force energy, which flows in channels through all living forms. The Chi Machine aids in unblocking the “Chi” pathways and ensures a maximum flow of healing source throughout your body and organs.

Imitation Machines

The Original Chi Machine by Sun Ancon / Sun Harmony is a Passive Aerobic Exerciser. Like many good things in life, The Chi Machine has inspired its share of fraudulent imitations ( Evergain, Swing Machine, Stress Buster, Exerciser 2000, Chi Swing, Chi Vitalizer or Chi Energizer, Ki Motion, Zen Chi), Since it's popularity many manufacturers have built their own version of a Passive Aerobic Exerciser. The secret of a genuine Passive Aerobic Exerciser (A) is their motor is perfectly balanced and the rocking motion is perfectly balanced from left to right (140 +/- 5 cycles per minute). Imitation Passive Aerobic Exercisers (B) look like they perform the proper movement, but are not balanced, thus they do not produce optimal effects. Our machine provides the correct movement to the body so as not to injure the spine. Our figure 8 movement is smooth, balanced, and non-jarring to the structure of the human body. The unbalanced movement of copy cat machines, no matter how subtle, may lead to repetitive stress injury to the body.

There are several other imitation/copycat devices on the market today. These devices, in an attempt to sell the machines for less, have used inferior motors in them. This causes the machine to not be able to provide the smooth, consistent, balanced motion necessary to receive the health benefits the machine was designed for. These imitation machines usually sell for between $98-$449.

Our Manufacturer has tried a number of Imitation and Copycat machines, here are their comments:

The Oxyciser, which is available from the Home Shopping Network for $98. It has a very weak motor and a violent motion that has had many people complaining of injury. This Oxyciser comes with a warning that you could burn the motor up if you use it for more than 15 minutes at a time and don't rest it a half hour between uses. It also specifies that it is not to be used commercially or in a professional healthcare office. The Chi Machine is made to be used in a busy doctor's office (MD, DC, ND, LMT).

The Stress Buster by Tinny Beauty, they have 2 models one cheap one and a 'deluxe' model. This was made by a former Chi Machine distributor that took the Chi Machine to China and through a Chinese government sponsored program is having this fake machine built there. It is sold here though a couple of distributors. It is not his main business, he just makes these as extra income. Just call them and you will see.

The Swing Machine or Healthy Swing. Again a variable speed control and an inferior product. It weighs only 7lbs. The Chi Machine is more sturdy and built to be used in hospitals. There are probably others, but these are the ones I have run across the most.

If you have any doubts as to any of this information I suggest you call the company that makes each machine. You will find NO real companies behind any of these other machines, just importers of boxes trying to make a quick buck. They have had people purchase these machines only to return them and buy a Chi Machine.

Do your own research and you will realize that it is no bargain to buy an inferior product that could not only break down in a few months, but could harm you. It's not worth saving a few bucks on something that you'll be using to maximize your health two or more times per day. Watch the video comparing an imitation chi machine to the Original Chi Machine.

How to Use the Chi Machine

Position the Chi Machine on a firm surface with the handle facing away from you.

Drink an 8-ounce glass of room temperature water before and after using the Chi Machine.

Stretch out your lower back first, then lay down on the floor.

Center your body with the arrow on the machine and place your feet in the cradle so that your ankles are 1-2 inches over the edge of the cradle. You may want to wear heavy socks - make sure to put the cradle cover on the chi machine.

Make sure you are comfortable lying there. If you have a tendency to lower back or knee pain, you may want to put a pillow under your knees for extra support until you are use to the movement of the chi machine.

Turn the timer switch on to activate the machine - first time users should NOT do more than 2-3 minutes, if in poor health less than 1 minute. Once you are used to the machine and its movement, you can increase your time in 5-minute increments. You may use the machine twice a day for maximum benefits.

Your body will feel a full body movement, do not fight this movement, stay relaxed and allow your body to move with the swing of the machine.

Breathe deeply and evenly during the movement.

When the machine stops, remain on the floor for 2-3 minutes before getting up. You may remove your feet from the cradle during this time. This is where your body benefits from the internal organ massage.

First, stretch out your spine and hips, then roll to one side and get up off the floor.

Remember to drink your other glass of water.

Three Different Arm Positions

Caution: After use some reactions may occur. Some people may feel tired or sore in parts of their body after using the Chi Machine. Some dizziness may also occur for first time users. This is Healthy! Oxygen is being restored to your body's cells that may not have received proper amounts before. The initial dizziness will disappear with regular use and increased circulation. Use for shorter periods of time and then gradually increase time as tolerated. People with motion sickness or other serious medical problems should start with 30 seconds to 1 minute initially. You may use it several times daily. Always check with a physician before use with the Chi Machine if health issues are a concern. Precautions: Do Not use for at least 3 months after an operation or bone fracture, if suffering serious infection, have a bleeding injury or heart disease, during pregnancy, within 30 minutes of eating, if extreme pain occurs during use, investigate the cause and correct the problem before reusing use of the machine.
