The VT-15 Whole Body Vibration is an invaluable tool for many reasons.
Our main purpose for purchasing the VT-15 was to stimulate the lymphatic system prior to a colonic for greater toxin release. This has proved to be a wonderful pre-colonhydrotherapy stimulator, but there are MANY MORE REASONS to use this incredible machine.
First of all, a 10 minute vibration workout may give similar benefits to a 1 hour workout at the gym.
Now some of the other benefits:
For Your Muscles:
With WBV you may expect similar strength gains to conventional resistance/gym training in a fraction of the time.
For Accelerated Weight Loss:
Vibration Training may give a sluggish metabolism just the boost it needs... up to an 18% increase from 10 minute sessions, just 3 times a week over 6 weeks (Bonner Physical Therapy 2003).
For Firming and Toning:
The only way to preserve muscle is through resistance exercise. And with WBV this may be accomplished far more efficiently than conventional weight training in the gym.
For Beauty:
Using the VT-15 may improve circulation, carry vital oxygen to your cells and tissues, assist in flushing toxins, while increasing your production of collagen. This may 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 may be possible to reduce cellulite on your thighs and buttocks by a massive 25.7%! (Sanaderm.AntiCellulite Untersuchung, 2003) and when you combine Cardio with WBV it's been shown that a cellulite reduction of 32% may be achieved.
For Bones:
WBV may provide excellent results for increasing Bone Density with little effort. The fact that scientific research has shown Vibration Exercise may help fight Osteoporosis is exciting. This is according to the groun breaking study reported in the journal of Bone and Mineral Research in 2006.
For Anti-Aging:
Gentle Vibration Exercise may prevent afe related muscle loss, increase flexibility and range of motion. It also may stimulate the production of collagen, creating tighter, more beautiful skin.
For Circulation:
Increased blood circulation is a notable benefit of Vibration, even at low speekds. As a result, your cells receive more oxygen and nourishment. The body may also develop better lymphatic drainage to improve our overall health and immunity.
For Feeling Good:
The VT-15 may reduce the effects of stress by decreasing cortisol levels (the stress hormone). You may get a natural "high" after every workout, its a chemical reaction!
For Back pain:
The VT-15s side-alternating platform immediately activates those "key" stabilising musclesat the body's core.
For Rehabilitation:
WBV may prevent injuries, but just as important, it can help in the rrehabilitation process. Many professional sports teams, physiotherapists and chiropractors have found WBV to be an invaluable tool-having an ability to strenghten muscles without the usual strain on joints and ligaments. Used for rehab this really is a "wonder therapy".
For Die Hard Golfers (and other sports people):
Flexibility and strength ...it's what every golfer must possess to achieve greatness! The VT-15 delivers these benefits. As it stimulates muscles, there may be a dramatic increase in explosive strength, motor learning, muscular endurance and overall agility.
