how do you use it for back ache?

I don't have experience with using this for back ache. This is an aromatherapy product, not a muscle balm. You use it in a way that will allow you to smell it.

I just use a cotton ball to apply directly to painful areas, or get a helper to apply to back trigger spots. I also apply a little to my wrists & palms & rub hands together, cup hands over my nose & mouth & inhale deeply--it helps to ease tension & pain, for me. I also put a drop in my tea.

I am not sure how it is used for back pain, however, you must mix the essential oil with a carrier oil in order to apply to skin. I used coconut oil. I would just google back pain and essential oils for ideas....

I am not familiar with that method. I use it to relax the muscles in my back. When it is placed in mid-back and lie on the roller on the floor with arms extended outward. I do this for 4-5 minutes at a time and it works to soften trigger points.

That is up to you. You can use it whenever you need it for as long as you can tolerate it. I mostly use mine at bedtime, and have fallen asleep bare-skinned for the entire night. I've woken up with it slightly stuck to my back, but had the best nights sleep! Many people cannot tolerate doing that; my husband can't even take it for 2 minutes. I use it for Lupus myalgia and pain from cervical disks. It has been a God-send.

I have never used it for back pain; I put a few drops(2-4) in a foot bath, and soak my feet in warm water, while it vibrates. All the answers I have read sound good to me; In massaging it into your skin, a couple of drops in an oil, I prefer almond oil, myself, but I'm sure any other solution could be good as well. As one has suggested, trial and error is the only way one can tell if it fits one's specific need.

Have to ask a Dr. about that, I suppose. My wife uses it regularly for her back and shoulder muscle aches and pains and gets fairly good results.

I use it frequently. Attach the pad to it (attaches with the velcro so it just sticks to it) and then put it on like a belt. My son has one also and loves it. Just feed the end through the black plastic loop, pull it to fit, and press to use the velcro to hold it. You can get a tighter fit by using the air pump after you are wearing it. It is very comfortable and works great. I use it for my lower back.

Hello, Mama! I've never tried this. The bottle isn't really that large. The best thing ever for back pain is OHC Chinese Massage Oil. If you use it after a hard work out - like pulling weeds or heavy lifting - you won't have pain the next day. http://www.amazon.com/Ohc-Chinese-Massage-Oil/dp/B00CWHTGHC/ref=sr_1_cc_1?s=aps&ie;=UTF8&qid;=1371158637&sr;=1-1-catcorr&keywords;=ohc+chinese+massage+oil

I stand on it with thin socks. It has helped tremendously with my back pain. Takes getting used to though.

It eases pain. Mine is in my rear end caused by arthritis pressing on my sciatic nerve trunks. I roll it on and get relief.

I don't know how to answer this question since I mainly use it for relieving muscle pain.

It can be painful. I don' t use it because it is supposed to relax, not to irritate.Feeling pain is mostly irritating

The pain doctor recommended it for my husbands back. It was originally made for horses strains. My husband says it works like a charm!

Ah-ha! Maybe that's why I don't really get relief!! LOL. The muscles in my upper back are a mess . . . car accident many yrs ago. I'm always looking for a new gadget that actually helps. And this one does. I love this contraption! I just use it while I'm watching tv and it feels great.I was really impressed, also, when I went in to my chiropractor and saw that he sells it! And uses it! :-)
