    I use a brush to stimulate blood flow several times a week on my left arm (side of surgery).  It feels great.  I'm reluctant to click on the websites as I've had a ton of trouble with those ... but I would think they are talking about something similar ...

    If done gently this may feel good, and stimulate blood flow but only to the upper levels of skin. I wouldn't expect any more.  (Need to find article which looked at the dearth of scientific evidence for this activity doing anything much at all.)
