Frequently asked
questions and
answers
Why is the Manilux especially suitable for use with diabetics?
Because the speed is continuously adjustable and the device stops if too much
pressure is used, the unit can also be used safely by persons who have reduced
sensitivity to pain or are unable to react quickly to pain. Also, the sapphire
accessory heads only remove dead skin.
Why are there so many heads?
Each head is designed to solve a particular problem for the hands and feet and
therefore especially effective and safe in use.
Can several people use one MEDISANA Manilux?
Yes. But in any case it is best that each person has its own set of the accessory
heads to prevent the transmission of skin diseases.
They can be obtained separately from MEDISANA AG.
