Not Sure Yet
I use my Revitive daily for 30 mins and have been doing so now for over a month. I originally purchased the machine as it advertised it may be beneficial for my Neuropathy in the feet. Has it helped? I'm not sure yet. It certainly has not done any harm and I find the treatment quite enjoyable. I really need to use it for 3 to 4 months to really see any impact on Neuropathy and blood circulation. The Jury is still out on this one!

We tried revitive for 2 weeks, then decided it wasnt helping leg problems. It had a money back guarantee so we sent it back, We are still waiting for the money back 8 weeks later, have rung 5 times and been told a lot of different stories but still no money, Ombudsman is the next step.

60-Day Sample Size
I ordered this item (Revitive Medic) back in late May of 2018. Like most people, I was looking for some basic relief from my Fibromyalgia and Neuropathy.....without all the drugs. And after practicing my due diligence research-wise (YouTube, public forums, online reviews and advertising,) I ordered this product using the Readers Digest insert.
Ordering is simple. Delivery was 3-5 days via Canada Post.
Before I continue, I also want to comment that I talked this over with my MD before making the purchase. And he wrote me up a prescription for ...Read more
this device. So, it's not as if I just ordered without first putting some thought behind this. The first week, I started off at 55. Then gradually increased my way up to 75. 30 minutes per day. At the end of week 1, I had to stop. My legs were just killing me. So I stopped for a few days, gave my legs a rest, and started back at 55. And I stayed there. I didn't want a repeat performance. Same same. My legs were killing me. Mornings were just horrible. Again, I stopped for several days, then went back. But I decreased my time to 20 minutes. In all honesty, some days, it would take a good 2-3 minutes for my legs to feel anything. The reason for starting at such a high number to begin with. I couldn't even feel anything below 50.....no sensation at all. I also noticed that I was getting edema.....enormous swelling in my calves, ankles, and feet. My toes are numb, the skin is tight, the skin is drying out, and I'm having trouble walking because it feels like I have vices around my calves. Never ever had this condition before. And I'm not taking any more chances with this unit. Went back to my MD, and showed him the results. Now I'm on Furosemide (Lasix) to deal with the salt/water retention from using this unit.Purchased in May 2021 for A$500.00.

Like having 20 Japanenese masseurs work on my legs!
Bought the Medic. Great price and love the portability. Postage was super fast. I have swollen, numb legs with odema and I think diabetes pain although I disputed the diabetes diagnosis as I don’t want to take drugs. Very strange sensation like a Tens machine but when I turned it up it felt like 20 masseurs were working on my legs. I only did a session of about 10 minutes at 65 power. All the power and electronic thumping soon brought back a lot of circulation to my left foot which has a lot of numbness. . I didn’t use cream. My wife is a diab...Read more
etic and has foot and knee pain and although I didn’t buy it for her specifically because she never likes electronic stuff, she tried it and loved it and said it got circulation in her feet going and thinks it will help her knee arthritis on higher power and is keen to use it. I’m finding it kind of addictive as far as wanting to go back again and use it because it seems to give me a lot of relief and my legs get swollen and burning a lot. I’m 64 years. I did an aweful lot of research on this so it’s not a novelty for me. My wife can’t massage my feet daily and neither can I hers but we need stimulation so the Circulation Booster is an ideal electronic circulation stimulator able to do the job of many people without getting tired for only the cost of electricity. My feet have been numb, sore and swollen for years and I’ve needed massage desperately and now I can care for my feet and legs without waiting on a tired person to do it for me with this product. I highly recommend it. It’s NOT a gimmick or novelty. No person can stimulate poor leg circulation better than this.1 comment

I believe it is starting to be helpful.
I believe it is starting to be helpful. I have little nerve conduction from my knees to my ankles due to back surgeries in addition to neuropathy. When I continue to go to the gym every other day I found there was no way I could work my calves. I am hoping that the medic will send pulses to my cans for a little assist. I find that my legs are tired after each session which I consider an indication that it might actually be working my calves.

Reserving judgement
I have been using this devise to help circulation in my legs. I have a lot of swelling in ankles and feet. I am more or less housebound and have lost a lot of muscle tone. I have not really noticed much difference as of yet I am reserving my opinion till I am at the 60 day mark. I do have to dampen my feet to feel anything. Not sure what that is.

Hi Sandi,
Thank you for your feedback. ... Read more
May I ask you a few questions in order to help you get the maximum of your experience with Revitive? 1. How often do you use Revitive? It's recommended to use it every day. 2. For how long do you use Revitive? We recommend 20-30 minutes session at least once per day. 3. Do you drink a lot of water? If your body dehydrated we recommend you to drink more water and use moisturizing cream (ex. Revitive Foot gel) so EMS technology can work and let your muscles contract. Just dampening your feet may not be sufficient enough because water drys out very quickly and you end up feeling no stimulation. If you have any other questions about this device, please contact our Customer Service team at 1800 505 108, or drop us an email at [email protected] Kind regards, Actegy Health teamSimilar opinion?

Fractured ankle
I fractured my ankle four weeks ago today. I have used Revitive twice a day and the tens pads on site of fracture once a day. In the past week my ankle has improved a hundred per cent. After I use it I do the exercises prescribed by my physio. I am walking better than I have for ages. I would certainly recommend it. I feel it has strengthened both my ankles. Money well spent.

At last. Some relief !!!
This machine is excellent and does what it says it will. I was reluctant to buy one at first but now couldn't be happier with the relief from swollen and aching legs that it has given me. I use it for 30 minutes a day and would certainly recommend a Revitive to anyone. It has made me feel so much healthier and more mobile than I have been in months, it is so easy to use and portable as well.......Fantastic!!!

Arthritis from fix in foot
I am a retired RN. I have had a green stick- non displaced fracture in my Left foot many years ago but at 65 I began to experience discomfort in my foot after walking on uneven ground or after pounding my foot showing my dogs. We purchased the unit to assist my husbands swelling in both of his feet- dependent edema from old fractures and diabetes. He didn't feel it was effective especially but he didn't use it regularly. I find it helps with preventing pain and sensitivity during the night in my feet. It also gives me an excuse to sit quietly for 30 minutes and it gives me more energy!

This company has just repackaged it in a modern colourful way and got a whole lot of old washed up sports stars to endorse it. Then adding a rediculous price tag to boot.

It does help me
I find my circulation booster works well, saves depending on Paracetemol for leg pain.
I found out however my recent extreme leg pain was a lack of magnesium caused by over use of my ventolin inhaler, so please look into all this in a holistic way. If you are not benefitting from your booster it can be because of other issues.

Questions & Answers
Chris Masked
Hi, after chemo I have neuropathy in my feet and cramps in my calves. I bought a Revitive 3 months ago and it has helped the condition. However, on occasion whilst I am using it I feel electric type shocks in the sole of my right foot causing me to lift it off. Reducing the power seems to have little effect. Why the electric shocks?
3 answers
Revitive M.Revitive
Hi Chris M,
Glad to hear that Revitive is assisting with the Neuropathy. The device is not able to produce electric shocks but you may experience a sharp sensation when you have a crack or abrasion in the foot or heel or even an area of extreme dryness. Dry feet are very common at this time of the year as the weather cools and our skin dries out. If you do have a crack or cut you can cover it with a plaster and this should do the trick until the broken skin heals. We also recommend that you apply moisturiser to the feet and keep the skin well hydrated. Taking a glass of water before and after use can assist.
If this does not help, please give us a call so we can get some more information and try to assist you further - 07 5443 9767
Warm Regards,
Actegy Health - AUSTRALIA.
Thank you for your prompt reply. I will ask my partner to look for cracks and also increase my hydration, does beer count :-)
Revitive M.Revitive
Hi Chris,
Good plan... Give us a call if you are still having issues after a few good hydration sessions (although we generally lean more towards moisturiser and water ;-) ;-)
Cheers,
Actegy Health - AUSTRALIA
Mum M.asked
Does level of hydration affect sensation? On different days we experience different levels of sensation, even though the level is the same...thanks. We have been using our new machine for 2 weeks.
2 answers
I think hydration is important it does say that in instructions
Revitive M.Revitive
Hi Mum M,
Your suspicion is correct. Hydration is absolutely an important factor for the intensity of the sensation that you experience. It is often the reason for noticing a differing intensity from day to day.
We find users report feeling a lower sensation as we head into the cooler / drier months when our skin becomes dry and we drink a little less water. Increasing your intake of water and hydrating the skin can certainly help keep the intensity stronger.
If you feel the variance is significant and are keeping well hydrated, please give our Customer Service team a call so we can discuss further. They can be reached on 07 5443 9767
Warm Regards,
Actegy Health - AUSTRALIA.

Can i use on stroke?
1 answer
Revitive M.Revitive
Hi Yunus A.
Thank you for checking. We would recommend that you have a talk to your doctor before you consider use. A stroke is a serious medical condition so it is best to get professional advice. Your doctor will consider how long ago the stroke was, if you are on any medication or have any underlying medical conditions that may be a factor.
There are a few people who should not use Revitive - you can check these here:https://www.revitive.com.au/can-i-use/
If you need any more information please feel free to call our Customer Service team - 07 5443 9767
