My JW husband's JW parents in Florida (the ones who shunned him for years when he was disfellowshipped) were recently raving about their new Ceragem massage bed. The actually purchased one for their home for around $2,000. They say MANY members of their congregation use these beds at a Ceragem location there in Ft. Lauderdale. The funny thing is, now on the Watchtower website they are taking a strong stand against Yoga because it is based on Eastern Medicine, mystical powers, etc. BUT, check out this Ceragem website:

How can statements like "With the push of a single button,the CGM-3500 employs state-of-the-art technology directed in strict accordance with the holistic principles of traditional Eastern Medicine to deliver the most healthful and refreshing relaxation imaginable for the body, mind and spirit." be unlike the principles of Yoga?
Sooo... I need someone's help. What is the best way to make a big deal out of this? If I send the info to my in-laws, they won't read it because they are very suspicious of my worldly ways and efforts to "stumble" their son. These idiots really think the bed does all sorts of things like lower blood pressure and cholesterol, improve bowel function (although that was more information than I wanted), help with weight loss, etc. I'd like for the Society to find out about all the Brothers and Sisters using it - many even purchasing their own. (And the not-so-nice side of me wants to see the inlaws lose the two grand they paid )
Any suggestions out there?
