Buyer beware! Serious health issues can occur from use of this tool!
Buyer beware!!!! Serious health issues may occur! I have never experienced such underhanded dealings by a marketer and promoter of a product, because ultimately that is what Miss Black is, as well, as a self-professed guru. Never in my wildest imagination when I bought her product did I have any indication that I was, in fact, a product tester and paid for that privilege as well. The protocols for using the device were not clear, contraindications few (other than if you had clotting issues) and it was obvious that Miss Black herself was unaware of the potential good as well as damage that this protocol she promotes could do. I watched as many women began to come forward with legitimate questions about issues they were having and were systematically removed from her page and group or attacked by loyal fans. After a year of watching differing opinions and protocols unfold, the majority of which users or customers came up with, suddenly the protocol was changed, but for many, it was to late. Sudden blood clots where no previous history of any problems began to pop up. "Fascia" or cellulite that looked good suddenly going from bad to great to worse than before even starting to "blast" and no amount of scrubbing, we are talking months and months, was going to get it to where it was, not even to where it was before. Women with liver problems, and blood tests that showed abnormal values in those tests,"bloating" that never went away, we are talking months of "detox" scary stuff, all swept under the rug or hidden or somewhat off-handedly handled by her "team" with drink more water, but mostly the consensus was "get em out of here" (her group) and they did. Miss Black jumped on every trend her unknowing group of testers came up with. Use it on your face? she developed a face one. There again the protocol started out one way and then suddenly women began coming forward saying "I did what so and so showed and look at my neck/jowls/forehead now? and as usual they were told to keep going it gets better, but they were damaging some of the most delicate tissue on the body and it wasn't going to get better. Then suddenly the face protocol changed too. Softer and more careful...well duh. But again for some, the damage was done. Sagging skin on your face after use is common. It really upsets me that myself as well as others were product testers and treated shabbily for speaking out about our issues which she then incorporated into her protocols. She touts herself as a scientist but has no medical or health related credentialing what-so-ever. She holds her man Bart Jameson as out as a Fasciologist and her gal Kathleen Stross as a Neuroscientist. It is an insult to those of us with well-earned degrees and a dangerous practice to engage in because she is regularly offering medical advice to the unsuspecting public several times a day on her FasciaBlaster Facebook pages. She flat out denied to users that were experiencing weight gain, that the FasciaBlaster did NOT and could NOT cause weight gain but then updated her T&C to include weight gain as a possible side effect. The updated T&C are 11 pages long, and include multiple new contraindications and warnings-the last T&C update was 4 pages. Because there were no clinical trials or studies conducted outside of a marketing company prior to it’s release to the masses, one can only conclude we, the consumers, have unknowingly been her test subjects. She actually called us her “guinea pigs” on a post as recent as March 10, 2017.
