Vibration Plate Therapy
What is it?
Vibration Plate Therapy delivers gentle whole-body vibrations, waking muscles, increasing blood flow delivery which ultimately enhances your body’s ability to regenerate cells and repair itself. Continued use builds up muscle tone, protecting nerves and bones and provides greater range of motion as the body continues to improve.
Benefits
Research continues to build that vibration plate therapy can significantly improve muscle strength and toning, balance, and calming of the nervous system. For those that have trouble exercising due to physical disabilities or limitations, including high amounts of inflammation, such as the case with people who have autoimmunity or chronic symptoms, can use vibration plate therapy in place of exercise which increases inflammation thereby symptoms. Twenty minutes of vibration therapy in comparison to an hour of usual exercise has proven to show similar results.
Vibration Plate Therapy has shown to be phenomenal for growing muscle mass, improving your bone density, improving the strength of your cartilage and your tendons and improving the connection between your brain and your muscles. As a result, it improves core strength, balance and reduces fall risk.
Vibration plate therapy is also an excellent device for rehabilitation after an injury, and a beneficial device for rehabilitation due to a neuro degenerative problem, such as Parkinson’s, Multiple Sclerosis, Cerebral Palsy or spinal cord injury.
How Vibration Works
Amid many studies that show that the involuntary muscle contractions through vibration forces your muscles to contract and relax much quicker than they would be without vibration. Your muscles get stronger automatically as a result. So, any exercise you do off the vibration plate, you would get more benefit on the vibration plate.
Vibration & Pain
Vibration plate therapy relaxes your nervous system. Many who suffer from aches and pains, it diminishes the pain feeling because the it calms the body down and diminishes the firing of the nervous system for pain.
Sometimes pain can be related to circulation and tightness. If this is the case, the oscillation, because it shakes up your leg muscles and your hip muscles, it can loosen any tension and bring blood flow back to the area of stagnation.
Vibration & Brain Health
As a result of vibration plate therapy’s changing frequencies, intensities and types of vibration oscillation (vertical and horizontal), this type of exercise allows for neuroplasticity, or the growing of the brain forging new neural pathways. ...a different form of neurofeedback.
Vibration & Aging
Research continues to build that vibration plate therapy is an excellent tool to delay the adverse effects of aging through its increased blood flow and circulation to muscles and tissues.
