Had one. At least my mother had one and she used it on us kids for aches and pains. She used "Unguintine" (sp?) as a lubricant. There was an intensity control which made the glass wands glow stronger. Put your finger next to the glass and all the corona would migrate to your finger. Pull your finger away and sparks would jump to the finger up to about an inch away. When mother wasn't around, us kids would "play" with it. One was supposed to apply the wand to the affected area and then turn on the discharge by increasing the control. I don't know if it did any good, but it tingled and we had fun with it.
