I have two:
One by Venture...I sleep and nap on it.
Another one from UTK. It’s full length for me, I’m 5’2. Get the flat black one. Don’t get the ones with stones etc, uncomfortable. I use this one all through the day.
You start with 30 mins each day. I think after a week, you can use it as much as you want.
I’ve had mine for over two years now.

@A MyFibroTeam Member may I ask, what brand did you purchase?

I was looking into this after reading about Nikola Tesla coming up with a device.
The guy was a genius so gives me hope , I think it stimulates the nerve endings!
If you think about being tickled that's all that is doing so maybe takes away the brain focusing on the pain signals same with deep heat and other creams, they don't actually go into the muscle and do anything but the heat we feel from the reaction of it touching our skin takes our focus away from the pain and onto the heat tricking our brain!
