Decrease Cellulite
By toning the muscles and increasing the lymphatic drainage, the VBX exercise machine can help decrease cellulite.
Elevate HGH & Serotonin While Decreasing Cortisol
Elevating the levels of HGH can help the body heal and repair quicker after injury or surgery. Elevating the levels of serotonin helps to create a feeling of well-being and happiness. Decreasing cortisol, a hormone caused by stress, can reduce belly fat.
Firm & Tone Muscles
The VBX exercise machine causes hundreds of muscle contractions per minute, which creates an effective workout to firm and tone muscles.
Firm & Tone Skin
Tighter muscles and improved blood circulation can help to tighten the skin.
Improve Balance, Flexibility, Mobility, Range of Motion, & More
The VBX exercise machine vibration causes your muscles to react to imbalance, which can help to strengthen your muscles while increasing the flexibility in your muscles, joints, and ligaments.
Improve Circulation & Lymphatic Drainage
Helping to cleanse toxic buildup from the body and increase oxygenation in the blood.
Increase Bone Density
Increasing bone mineral density while using the VBX exercise machine can help to prevent further bone loss and combat osteoporosis.
Increase Lean Muscle Mass & Lose Weight
Increasing lean muscle mass makes the body more fuel-efficient by burning more calories throughout the entire day, not just during the workout. The more calories the body is able to burn, the higher the potential is for dramatic weight loss.
Neuromuscular Re-education
*When applicable, such as with MS, CP, or after a stroke.
Reduce Pain & Stiffness
Improving circulation and lymphatic drainage while increasing muscle strength can alleviate symptoms of fibromyalgia, arthritis, and other chronic or invisible pain.
Rehabilitation from Injury
Re-strengthen the muscles after injury, illness, or surgery.
Triangular Oscillation Vibration
The Triangular Oscillation System (T.O.S.) vibrates at the correct megahertz from a body-toning and medical standpoint, while also using a lift mechanism as well as vibration. It vibrates in the 30HZ-60HZ range. The T.O.S. system used by the VBX WBV (Whole Body Vibration) machine generates systematic, involuntary muscle contraction with substantially less G-force than the “piston” systems. This stimulates receptors in the Achilles tendon called Golgi bodies, which stimulate nerve receptors that track up to the cerebellum (the part of the brain that is responsible for balance). This pleasant rocking and rolling action cause the brain to tell the muscles of your body to actively contract to maintain their equilibrium, thus creating a therapeutic and muscle toning workout.
Exposing the Myth of High G-Force
Some whole-body vibration machines claim that more G-force is better, boasting upwards of 17.4 Gs of acceleration and beyond. Before we get into dispelling this potentially harmful myth, let’s briefly define G-force and look at international safety standards (along with common sense).
One “G” is equal to the earth’s gravitational field (acceleration of 9.8 meters per second). Frequency corresponds to the number of cycles delivered per second. Levels of vibration are typically considered as a function of magnitude (G-force), which depends on the frequency (Hz), amplitude (usually measured in millimeters), and weight. The duration of exposure (time) and type of vibration (pivotal/oscillating, linear/vertical, etc.) is an important factor. Pivotal or oscillating motions are much gentler and beneficial than the pounding of an "up and down" vertical or linear machine, which can be hard on the back and joints.
Is Vibration Therapy Safe?
There is mounting scientific evidence - through both animal and clinical studies - that low-level, mechanical signals delivered via whole-body vibration machines can stimulate bone formation; assist in weight loss; reverse arthritis and back or joint pain; and assist in overall increased strength and mobility.
However, just because some vibration may be beneficial, not all vibration is the same. More vibration is not necessarily better. One should always be concerned that “too much of a good thing” may be true in mechanical stimulation, such as whole-body vibration. For example: just because one aspirin is good for you doesn’t mean that you should take 50 aspirin per day.
The Dangers of High G-Force Whole Body Vibration Machines
The acceleration magnitudes used in some whole-body vibration machines can be as high as 17.4g - 22.0g, which is well beyond the limits recommended for human tolerance by ISO 2631 and OSHA standards. It is considered dangerous to use, especially for the elderly or young.
These ridiculously high G-forces are beyond even the safety limits set by NASA and the U.S. Air Force. The space shuttle, for example, is calibrated to stay close to only 3g's on takeoff and re-entry into the earth's atmosphere. Fighter pilots need special anti-G suits to withstand G-forces over 8 or 9g's, to prevent them from fainting. It’s generally considered that the average person could not survive a sustained G-force of over 15g's for even a few minutes. It simply defies safety standards (and common sense) to use such high G-forces.
