Independent Clinical Testing, October 2017, WTPUSE5F

Objective

To determine the effectiveness of the Waterpik^TM PowerPulse Massage device in alleviating the symptoms associated with self-assessed foot discomfort when used under typical home-use conditions. This device provides a proprietary pulsating massage.

Methodology

Subjects set the spray mode to PowerPulse Massage and pointed the Therapeutic Strength Massage on the affected foot discomfort area (identified at enrollment) using the pulsating water flow to massage this area for 3 to 5 minutes. Subjects were given a daily diary to record use of the PowerPulse shower head and any comments. At the end of the use period, they returned to the test facility to complete a self-perception questionnaire.

Results

from the questionnaire indicated 92% of the panel (47 of 51 subjects) began to feel relief from foot discomfort within 5 minutes of using the PowerPulse Therapeutic Strength Massage spray.

The massage spray was perceived by 90% of the panel (46 of 51) to be soothing to their feet.
