    Classic Mid Century Modern
    One of the first bestsellers among fitness products in the 1950s and 1960s, the Relax-A-Cizor designed by William J. Browner sold over 400,000 copies. Its popularity was due to its ease of use and the manufacturer's promise to lose weight overnight.
    These devices were not only used for weight reduction but also for fetish & erotic stimulation and was part of the collection of sexual scientist Alfred Kinsey.
    Unfortunately, the "miracle cure" Relax-A-Cizor brought a multitude of health problems and dangers instead of the desired weight reduction. The enormous intensity of the electrical impulses led to muscle shocks, unconsciousness, difficulty swallowing, cramps and vomiting. Even miscarriages and paralysis were side effects of the device, which is why the product was banned by the US government. As a result, Hollywood-based Relaxacizor Inc. went bankrupt.
