The Motor Tech uses three different techniques to target the sensitive points of the soles: kneading, rolling and massaging. The massager works on your sole, arch and tiptoes and is quite effective in improving your blood circulation.
The Orion Motor Tech is easy to maintain. Its velour fabric is removable so you can easily clean it.
The Auto mode has 4 options: P1, P2, P3 and P4. Each of them focuses on different areas of your body, from legs, to your head, neck, lumbar, shoulders and even your urinary system.
The Custom mode has 3 options to choose from: Toe, Arch, Sole.
The Manual mode is self-explanatory. In this mode, you can adjust the kneading speed and direction according to your own preference.
The Orion Motor Tech is really effective, maybe even too aggressive on its highest settings, so our advice is to start on the lowest settings and take it from there.
If there is one feature missing on the Orion Motor Tech, it would have to be the heat function, which may be a deal breaker for some people.
All in all though, the Orion Motor Tech is quite complex and versatile, and we’re sure you can find the perfect combination for your feet, if you just take some time to tweak the massager.
