The Power Plate produces a vibration through which energy is transferred from the platform to the body. By standing on the Power Plate platform your body automatically adjusts to the vibrations. This mechanical stimulus produces a stretch reflex which, depending on the selected frequency, results in involuntary muscles contraction 30 to 50 times per second.  This technology allows the body to gain strength or perform exercises without undue stress on joints, which is one reason it is used by everyone from professional athletes and celebrities to the elderly and wheelchair bound.

The validation of vibration training originates from the Russian space program 40 years ago, where it was successfully used to improve bone density and reinforce the muscles of their cosmonauts and eventually Olympic athletes.

Vibration training on the Power Plate may offer a host of benefits such as considerably improving muscle strength, flexibility, range of motion, bone density and stimulating circulation. Additionally, studies (see powerplateusa.com) have proven Power Plate’s ability to reduce muscle pain and soreness and expedite the recovery of damaged muscles and tendons.

Advanced Vibration Technology may also increases the production of regenerative and repair hormones, improves lymph drainage and increases basal metabolic rate. All of this can result in more strength, more speed, more stamina, rapid recovery of muscles and tissue, increased flexibility, mobility and coordination, improved collagen production and fat reduction. 

All of these positive results is why vibrational therapy is now found everywhere, including fitness facilities, hospitals, rehabilitation centers, college and professional sports teams.

The Power Plate in our office is used in adjunct to an existing patient's treatment protocol. We are sorry to say it is not available to the public.
