While the science is lacking in research, initial studies have shown that by standing, sitting or lying on a full body vibration machine can help with weight loss, improve muscle strength and blood flow, decrease stress, and improve balance in elders.

How Full Body Vibration Works

As the machine vibrates, it transfers the energy and motion to your body, which causes the muscles to contract and relax dozens of times per second. This is equivalent to exerting your muscles in activity. This action has shown to be especially beneficial for sedentary or senior individuals. It has also proven to help improve bone density as well.

If you suffer from joint problems, have a heart condition or use a pacemaker, it is recommended that you seek medical advice before using a vibration trainer.
