Ever since I seen the Fetish Fantasy Shock therapy kit, I have been fascinated by checking this thing out. Firstly, because of my fibromyalgia, I would love to see if this helps increase circulation and help relax my muscles a bit. Also, I would possibly like to see if this is something that I could get into sexually. I've never tried it before, so this is something that I know nothing about.
There was a thread (can't recall where) that someone had responded to about how the electric shock therapy things should not be used on the breasts because it is close to the heart?
I'm wondering if anyone has any medical background that could tell me whether or not there is any truth to this or any other warnings that I should heed.
Also, Im torn. I really want the Istim, but its expensive. Im probably going to order the Shock therapy but is it worth it or should I hold out for the IStim?

The shock therapy is always out of stock. I'd like to try it one day. Nexus istim looks good too. Justlikeheaven did a review on it.

Both of these are out of stock so often.... (waits patiently). The iStim is the first thing on my Top Ten wishlist, and I've been looking forward to it for a long time. But now that you mention it, maybe I should get the Shock Therapy set too (when it's in stock...) so I can do some kind of comparison review.
Let us know what you get... I have only really used electrostimulation from one of those little electronic hot-potato games and from the Jopen Intensity, and all I know is that I want more!

I have the iStim. It's a decent device for a beginner since it's easy to use. One little drawback is that EF does not carry replacement pads.
In regards to the dangers of using an electro-stim unit near the heart, yes the threat is real. The heart beats based on electrical impulses from a node in the heart. An electrical charge can potentially disrupt this signal and cause the heart to stop. However, I believe the relative risk is also based on the power of the unit. The iStim uses a 9 volt battery and it explicitly warns against using the unit above the waistline. I'm not familiar with the other product, but I'm assuming it is considered safe since it has a picture of the pads on the woman's breasts.

I just purchased the Fetish Fantasy Series Shock therapy and get it tomorrow. I wanted the iStim but it seemed a bit too expensive to me since I am just trying out "electro" play for the first time. If I like the kit I am getting tomorrow, I will probably get the iStim.

I am going to get both, so that's what I say... ^^

Both, I guess there is a difference...

i can't choose, both!

I just ordered the fetish fantasy one too. I want the Istim though.

Just tried the fetish fantasy one. Pretty awesome. I'll write a review on it soon, like tomorrow. I liked it a lot. There is a lot of power on it, I could only get to the like.. 4th setting. I liked it though. Now I want the iStim. You'll be addicted if you get the fetish fantasy one. xoxo

These look like decent beginner sets, but long have I desired to try out a violet wand.
