ABOUT THE IPLIKATOR
The foldable Iplikator in a turquoise fabric cover is designed to provide a wide range of therapeutic applications, especially for the spine, large muscle groups, back pain relief, and insomnia. Thanks to its foldable design, it is easily portable and storable, increasing its practicality. For chronic osteochondrosis and insomnia, regular use of the Iplikator is recommended before bedtime for 15–20 days, followed by a two-week break to maintain the therapeutic effect.
When lying on the large Iplikator, you will feel the sharp spikes for the first 3 minutes, followed by a sensation of warmth and pleasant relaxation, which lasts throughout the application. The skin may turn red, which is a normal reaction. Regular use improves blood circulation, relaxes muscles, and leads to an overall improvement in health.
MAINTENANCE
Disinfect using standard products, and clean the Iplikator with a brush. Inflatable and transparent Iplikators can be washed under lukewarm running water.
Reattach any loose discs by gluing or sewing them back to their original place.

INTERESTING FACTS
The Kuznetsov Iplikator, also simply known as the iplikator, is a device consisting of metal and plastic modules with sharp spikes, attached to a polyethylene or textile base. The primary purpose of the iplikator is to relieve acute and chronic pain. Its effectiveness is based on the principles of acupressure and reflexology, where the sharp spikes act on the skin and subcutaneous tissues, stimulating blood circulation, releasing muscle tension, and supporting the body's natural regenerative processes.
The Iplikator was first developed in Chelyabinsk, Russia, by Ivan Ivanovich Kuznetsov. Suffering from chronic kidney disease and after unsuccessful traditional treatment, Kuznetsov began studying Chinese and Tibetan medicine. Based on this knowledge, he created the first iplikator, a belt with sewn-on sewing needles. After successfully treating his problems, Kuznetsov's invention attracted the interest of doctors and was later patented and mass-produced. In 1980, Kuznetsov, along with scientists from VNIIFK, received a patent for the iplikator as a means to enhance human performance. The device became very popular in the former Soviet Union, where approximately 70 million units were produced.
