Finally a form of exercise everyone can stick with!
Wither you're looking to reduce weight, fight cellulite, build muscle, improve flexibility or even improve your golf swing, Whole Body Vibration Threapy (WBVT) will help you reach your fitness goals. Vibration training is low impact and gentle, enabling anyone, regardless of their age or fitness levels to use it. One can get the benefits of exercise without putting strain on joints or bones.
On a Whole Body Vibration machine, the platform you stand on moves very rapidly. This controlled motion is transferred up through your body. All of your body tissues are forced to react to the stimulus of the vibrating platform. Blood flow increases considerably and more oxygen gets circulated throughout your body. Lymphatic drainage improves which aids in detoxification and increased bone mineral density. The way you position your body on the vibrating platform determines what tissues are affected. You have complete control over the body part you want to target and how challenging the workout is.
