Vibration platforms are designed to strengthen and improve muscles with low-frequency vibrations. Vibration platforms are widely used in the fields of kinesitherapy and physiotherapy to recover patient’s mobility and flexibility mostly in a rehabilitation process.
There are two broad categories of whole body vibrations:
• Physiotherapy. Main methods of physiotherapy are massages and stretches in light contact with the machine. Positions of a body, such as standing upright or lock-legged, should burn no energy at all.
• Training. Patients are required to train in a static position, like half-push up, half-squat, the plank hold, or triceps dip. The time of holding these positions shouldn’t be longer than 1 minute in order to not cause any damage to a joint.
Vibration platforms are used for a treatment of such diseases as:
• Osteoporosis
• Sarcopenia
• Metabolic syndrome
Vibration platforms are also widely used in the following fields:
> Fitness industry
> Physical therapy
> Rehabilitation
> Sports
> Beauty applications
Types of vibration platforms:
1) High energy lineal. Vibrations are transmitted upwards evoking a strong stretch-reflex contraction in fibres of muscles. Mostly used in training studios and gyms.
2) Premium speed pivotal. Lower speed and workouts at up to 36 Hz speed are used.
3) Medium energy lineal. Made of plastic, usually have 3D vibrations, but results are less steady and obtained slower.
4) Low-speed pivotal units. Used in the treatment of osteoporosis, to increase a blood circulation and flexibility.
