Maggie, other than massage (which is non-invasive, requires no machines, and 
requires no actual manipulation of body parts), all of the other modalities 
you mentioned are also illegal during competition--from vet-in to after the 
post-ride check.  Neither your post nor Bob's was clear--you did not mention 
WHEN the BioScan was to be used, and Bob did not mention that the 
"illegality" is the above-mentioned time frame.  You can certainly use it at 
home, and your friend could certainly come demo it at the ride--but after the 
completion checks are done!
