The full body vibration plate is one of the tools utilized by chiropractors to aid in strengthening the body, reducing back pain and improving health.
We use whole-body vibration therapy, also known as power plate therapy, as an effective way to enhance patient recovery. Whole-body vibration therapy is a form of therapeutic exercise that uses a gently vibrating platform to build strength, improve posture, and enhance coordination.
According to Dr. Edward R. Laskowski at the Mayo Clinic, whole-body vibration training can offer some fitness and health benefits, but there's not enough evidence to suggest that it's as good for your body as regular exercise.
In addition to the above-mentioned six groups of people that cannot use the vibration plate, those who suffer from acute hernia, diabetes, severe migraine, cancer or tumors, and neurological conditions are also advised not to use the vibration platform exercise machine.
The Handheld Adjusting Tool, also know as an Activator, is a spring loaded device that when used applies a very quick, specific force to a joint to help restore movement, and it has been shown to be effective in helping spinal pain and Trigger Point (Muscle) Pain.
The Gonstead technique is believed to be one of the most effective chiropractic techniques. It was named after its founder Clarence Gonstead. It is a concept of chiropractic care that uses various examination methods to study pain-causing factors.
Chiropractic adjustment can help you experience toxic releases from various environmental and industrial pollutants and food-based toxins. These include: Polychlorinated biphenyls or PCBs. Aerosol toxins, including chlorofluorocarbons or CFCs.
Even just standing on a vibration plate with your knees slightly bent is an efficient way of toning the muscles in your legs and your core.
Vibration is a known to cause both acute and chronic injury to a range of physiologic systems, including musculoskeletal, circulatory and nervous. Several Whole Body Vibration devices far exceed what is considered safe for even brief exposure to the healthy standing human.
Your body may endure between negative and positive 3 Gs of force for up to 10 minutes. This can be equivalent to 1 hour of cardio.
It's not yet clear if whole-body vibration provides the same range of health benefits as exercise you actively engage in, such as walking, biking or swimming. Some research does show that whole-body vibration may help improve muscle strength and that it may help with weight loss when you also cut back on calories.
Experts say that you can lose weight by using a vibration platform just fifteen minutes a day, three times a week. In fact, they recommend NOT exercising more than this. You work on large muscle groups when you use a vibration machine and these muscles need time to repair.
Vibration therapy can provide noticeable benefits for your spine and joints. A few minutes on a vibration platform can relieve chronic pain, allow tensed muscles to relax, and calm nerves that are irritated due to compression. The powerful vibrations work on tendons, ligaments, muscles, and discs all at the same time.
Vibration increases blood flow to muscles and bones, allowing them to repair at a faster rate. Vibration may also stimulate nerves to release signals for stem cells found in bone marrow to become osteoblasts or bone building cells.
Exposure to vibration could have a negative effect on the health of your employees. It could damage joints, muscles, circulation and sensory nerves.
For your own long term use and for our service providers, there are multiple reasons to drop the shoes... Shoes to a degree dampen and absorb the stimulation and may actually prevent the vibrations from being correctly transferred to the body.
Those with muscle or bone injuries
If you've recently suffered a sprain or tear, power plates could slow recovery. Increased muscle contractions as a result of intense vibration can make certain injuries worse. Essential stitches could also become dislodged.
Vibration can accelerate machine wear, consume excess power, and cause equipment to be taken out of service, resulting in unplanned downtime. Other effects of vibration include safety issues and diminished working conditions.
This is why some people cry during or after an adjustment or feel more emotional, overall. This is a beautiful release that the body makes so that you can feel lighter. The body is fluid in its natural state and is always ready to release what is no longer serving you.
In spite of the fact that I rarely showed emotion in front of anyone, the tears were flowing and there wasn't much I could do to stop it. The chiropractor, after ensuring that I wasn't in pain, explained that people store their emotions in their physical body, which can be released by the adjustment. It clicked.
Your body has to accommodate to the changes that are happening. For example, if your neck and shoulder muscles were tight from hunching over a computer all week, you may feel a headache soon after a chiropractic visit. Your muscles are irritated and even a little “angry” from being adjusted.
