Multiple issues advert March 2010 peacock March 2010 weasel March 2010 refimprove May 2009 Chi Machine is a passive exercise device invented by a Japanese engineer, Keiichi Ohashi, in 1988. Ohashi s invention was granted a patent by the Japanese Patent Office in 1990 The concept derives from a form of exercise for the pelvic region which is done while lying down, and which is known in Japan as goldfish exercise . Method The idea of providing a machine to swing the feet, and thus to impart the sideways oscillation of the pelvis which is characteristic of goldfish exercise, is said to have been the idea of a Japanese scientist Dr. Shizuo Inoue . He claimed that lack of oxygen in the body is a primary cause of diseases as attested to by numerous doctors internationally, and Nobel Prize winners Dr. Warburg and Dr. Odeuale. The machine is a box like device with an ankle cradle that moves from side to side at approximately 140 oscillations per minute. The user is instructed to lie down flat on the floor and rest their legs on top of the ankle cradle. Marketing The original chi machine was manufactured in Japan by Skylite Corporation, but is promoted outside Japan by a group of network marketing companies owned by Hsin Ten of Taiwan HTE who have trademarked the term The Chi Machine .
