(EMAILWIRE.COM, July 13, 2011 ) Boca Raton, FL -- Whole-Body Vibration platforms: do they work? Trends in exercise and rehabilitative therapy are ever-changing. However, these developing trends are not always the safest, and the use of vibration platforms is no exception.
“Changing the waveform of a vibration is just like changing the formulation of a drug – you completely change its effect upon the body,” states Dr. Josh Woggon, whose father, Dr. Dennis Woggon, is the inventor of The Vibe.
Unlike other platforms on the market, The Vibe was created not by marketers, but by doctors of chiropractic who were seeking a way to help their patients with specific conditions such as low back pain, scoliosis, osteoporosis, and postural abnormalities.
Vibration therapy initially began as a way of retraining the brain’s control over the muscles more effectively. When you stand upon the Vibe, by Vibe for Health, your postural muscles have to make multiple, rapid adjustments – as many as 50 times per second to adapt to the stimuli and balance accordingly. For this reason, exercises & spinal rehabilitation performed upon the Vibe can be as much as 3 times more effective than if they were done alone.
A vibration is like a wave, repeated over and over again. Scientists quantify this wave through its frequency (the number of waves per second, measured in Hertz) and its amplitude (which is the size of the wave) – just like a radio receiver captures radio waves based upon their amplitude (AM) or frequency (FM). These two factors also determine the effect of vibration upon the body. Different tissues in the body will respond to different frequencies, and exceeding certain amplitudes can cause damage to the bones, joints, & organs.
JL Haber, Vice President of Programming at Multi Media Productions, added, “With a unique approach health and fitness, Vibe for Health was a natural fit for our show. We are excited to have them as a guest on our program.”
