For Beauty

What woman wouldn’t appreciate a beauty treatment 3-5 times a week! Using the Vibro-Power will improve circulation, carry vital oxygen to your cells and tissues, assist in flushing toxins, while increasing your production of collagen. This will result in firmer, smoother skin, with a significant reduction in cellulite! Research shows that with just 3 sessions a week (11 hours total over 24 weeks) it’s possible to reduce cellulite on your thighs and buttocks by a massive 25.7%! (Sanaderm. Anti Cellulite Untersuchung, 2003) And when you combine Vibration Training with cardio exercise it’s been shown that cellulite reduction of 32% can be achieved. Just see these results! Avoid 'Turkey Neck'    Another amazing possibility for beauty lies in the way that the subtle vibration affecting the facial muscles actually tones them and causes them to lift the sagging jowls and tighten the skin!

 

For Bones

Strong bones are what keep us young! Extensive studies show that after 39 years of age, women have a rate of bone loss double the rate of men! Post-menopausal women are most affected, so this is serious stuff. Resistance training, i.e. what we’re told to do at the gym or at home with resistance bands and weights, shows no benefit to improving bone density. But the exciting news is that WBV can provide excellent results and with little effort. This is according to the ground breaking study reported in the Journal of Bone and Mineral Research in 2006.

 

For Anti-Ageing

Gentle Vibration Exercise can prevent age-related muscle loss, increase flexibility and range of motion. It also stimulates the production of collagen, creating tighter, more beautiful skin. It’s all possible! The fact that scientific research has shown Vibration Exercise can help fight Osteoporosis is exciting (refer to “For Bones” above). So for older generations this could well be the most important discovery in decades.

 

For Circulation

Increased blood circulation is a notable benefit of Vibration, even at low speeds. As a result, your cells receive more oxygen and nourishment. The body also develops better lymphatic drainage to improve our overall health and immunity. It does this by taking away waste products and moving white blood cells to where they are needed. White blood cells are like the ‘cavalry’ of the body – removing debris from broken down cells and attacking invading agents, such as poisons and bacteria.

 

For Massage

More than just an exercise and rehabilitation machine, the Vibro-Power offers the luxury of whole body massage and relaxation. Massage also benefits overall health and has been shown to improve physical performance, prevent and eliminate injuries, reduce stress, improve circulation and assist in flushing toxins! Just relax …the Vibro-Power can reduce the effects of stress by decreasing cortisol levels (the ‘stress hormone’). And with WBV you get that natural ‘high’ after every workout. It’s true …in fact it’s a chemical reaction! As a result of the vibrations our bodies increase their secretion of serotonin, the “feel good” neurotransmitter. You’ll get that overall feeling of youth and energy. You’ll also have the benefits of improving mental stimulation and concentration.

 

For Feeling Good

WBV can prevent injuries, but just as important, it can help in the rehabilitation process. Many professional sports teams, physiotherapists and chiropractors have found WBV to be an invaluable tool – having an ability to strengthen muscles without the usual strain on joints and ligaments. The process of rehabilitation involves an increase in blood flow causing a dramatic spike in Human Growth Hormone (HGH) – the key to the repair and regeneration of soft tissue. While improved circulation also helps to drain fluid build-up from injured tissue, Vibration stimulates a combined release of hormones and natural chemicals to suppress pain. Used for rehab, this really is a “wonder therapy”.

 

For Back Pain

When you’re on your feet all day or just sitting at a desk, back pain can be debilitating and affects millions! The Vibro-Power's side-alternating platform immediately activates those ‘key’ stabilising muscles at the body’s core – when weak they’re the trigger for back problems. Strong core muscles mean we develop a better posture to promote spinal health and keep us free from back pain. Because Vibration increases circulation to the problem areas, you no longer have the need to do special exercises that may be painful and cause discomfort (those exercises that are normally associated with strengthening weak core muscles).

A study by Manchester Metropolitan University showed that WBV can reduce chronic lower back pain by 70% in just 3 months.

If one of the conditions listed below applies to you, it does not necessarily exclude you from using Whole Body Vibration. Extensive medical research on the effects of exercise on specific medical conditions is ongoing and as a result, this list may soon be revised. To be safe, we advise you to consult your physician before using a whole body vibration machine.
