Degenerative disease and accelerated aging have all been attributed to insufficient cellular stimulation. As living cells struggle with poor nutrition, low oxygen levels, environmental toxins, and stagnation of lymphatic fluids, disease conditions develop and accelerate aging. The solution has arrived in the form of a
low impact, vertical, Whole Body Vibration (WBV) machine.
 
We have 28 Different Settings To help target exactly what you want!
 
In just 6-16 minutes the Whole Body Vibration machine helps you:
 
  • Burn Calories
  • Improve Circulation
  • Increase Strength
  • Gain energy and endurance
  • Speed recovery
  • Develop better balance and coordination
  • Enhance lexibility
  • Reduce Pain
  • Alleviate Stress
  • Decrease unsafe cortisol levels
  • Eliminate cellulite
  • Improve overall health and well being
The WBV accelerates the body's natural healing response by increasing cellular oxygen, enhancing cellular nutrient uptake, stimulating cellular fluid movement, and facilitating cellular waste removal. As a result, the new cells are more resilient, vibrant, and function together more cohesively as a healthier, longer lasting body.No matter how young or old you are and irrespective of your level of fitness or health, the WBV offers individual therapeutic and exercise opportunities for everyone. The whole body or a part of the body can be stimulated and trained.
 
How Whole Body Vibration works
 
When a muscle fiber is stretched, it will contract by reflex. By standing on the WBV machine, pure vertical vibration is transmitted throughout the whole body. This causes thousands of muscle contractions which increases muscle tone. The movement of the vibration plate stimulates the body to respond with a strong involuntary muscle contraction similar to when your doctor taps on your knee with a reflex hammer.
Usage consists of standing upright on the WBV machine platform. It produces low impact, true vertical vibrations from 1 Hz to 99 Hz with variation of amplitude from 0 to 100. Vertical vibrations are transferred through the body, stimulating all areas: cells, blood vessels, organs, muscles, etc.
The whole-body vibration platform is the newest leading edge technology that goes beyond the standard mechanical vibration machines and implements the technology of sound.
This provides an improved vibration throughout the entire body where you can specify not only the speed of the vibration (Hz), but also the amplitude of each wave
  • Muscles
The effect of vibration results in what scientific literature calls 'Tonic Vibration Reflex' or 'TVR'. That is a repeated myotatic reflex or stretch reflex. This means that the vibrated muscle has to work very hard, while the subject or player using the Evolution® does nothing other than balance on the platform. The effect per pulsation is like that of the knee jerk reflex. This muscle activity can be measured by use of electromyography (EMG).With vibration training on the Evolution™ the muscles work at 200 to 300% of this IRM activation. This is an ideal way to train, especially when the muscle does not function properly, for example with weakened muscles in the elderly, or after injuries.
  • Hormones
Research shows that after vibration training (just one session!), there is a high excretion of Testosterone and Growth Hormone. There is also a drop in the stress hormone cortisol. This combination has favorable effects on muscle protein synthesis.
 
Effect of vibration training on Hormones:
  • Testosterone: + 7%
  • Human Growth Hormone: + 460%
  • Cortisol: - 32%
    (Source: Bosco et al 2000)
 
Increases in Testosterone and Growth Hormone are important in the functioning of both body and mind. Many complaints of the elderly can be traced to a decrease in these hormones. It is essentially these hormones, together with the female hormone estrogen, which are used to combat geriatric complaints so that it is possible to still enjoy life and vitality even when one has reached old age. 
  • Bones
Bone decalcification (osteoporosis) is one of the biggest health problems especially in the elderly and women population. Many elderly people break their bones more easily when they fall because of bone decalcification; the hip is the most notorious in this respect. The onset of osteoporosis is partly due to a lack of movement, which causes muscles to gradually weaken, the circulation to diminish and the bones to be inadequately used. In addition, as a result of the ageing process, the body produces less hormones such as testosterone, estrogen and growth hormone. Yet it is exactly these hormones which play such an important role in the maintenance of strong bones. The advice usually given to sufferers of this disease is to take more exercise, but that is difficult when muscles are weak, particularly in the legs. the Evolution™ offers a good alternative to vigorous impact exercise: through vibration the muscles automatically become stronger and regain their tone. The circulation improves because the blood vessels in the legs are wide open due to the vibration. At the same time, the pulsation gives a direct stimulus to bone tissue, which in turn stimulates the production of new bone tissue. Scientific research shows that vibration training can help against osteoporosis. Recent findings show that even after only one vibration treatment, there is an increase in the hormone testosterone and growth hormone, which are so essential for strong bones.
  • Neurotransmitters
 Parkinson's disease is an example of a deficiency in dopamine, which is the reason that L-Dopa is given as medicine. It is also recognized that serotonin plays a role in our mood, or frame of mind. A shortage of serotonin in the brain can lead to depression, which is the reason that Prozac is given as a medicine in order to increase the serotonin content in the brain. From research, it appears that vibration training also influences the neurotransmitters and the way in which they work. Vibration training increases the serotonin content in the brain, which could possibly explain why one feels so well after vibration training. 
  • Blood Vessels
The effect of vibration training on the blood vessels is clear to see and to feel. After training, one often sees that the skin of the lower leg is colored pink. This is a sign that the blood vessels in that area are wide open. It also explains the feeling which many describe as: coming home after a snowball fight with your bare hands, and then putting your hands in a bucket of warm water. A tingling feeling which indicates that your blood vessels are wide open. In Germany, the effect of vibration training is used as therapy for a disturbed peripheral circulation, particularly in the lower legs, such as in chronic venous insufficiency.
