Vibration Plate Therapy

[PD10123]

(Canada) As my husband has signs of Parkinsons and wishes to address this issue naturally I recently received a vibrating plate. Note: Due to knee problems his physical activity is limited. I am impressed with the EILISON FitMax KM-818. There are a variety of exercises and settings benefiting improved balance, postural control, increased bone density, muscle growth, etc. Have found vibration very helpful in releasing tension in tight muscles.

WBV has demonstrated limited, but beneficial effects on balance stability and mobility in individuals with Parkinson disease. The influence of different types of equipment and parameters on clinical outcome is undetermined but may play a role in the conflicting results. Consistency in WBV parameters that show beneficial effects is encouraged. Future studies on WBV, especially on how parameters relate to clinical outcome, could pave the way for larger and more clinically meaningful effects following WBV.

If you don't mind sharing, what specific brand/model are you are using and how has it helped your movements?

I bought second hand vibration machines a Vibra Power and it helps relieve stiff leg muscles particularly first thing in the morning...im finding a recent treadmill purchase is definitely helping with normalising walking
