Check it out:

Whole body vibration, or WBV, involves standing on a platform which sends mild or intense vibrations through the feet, and therefore, into the rest of the body. For something that is so simple in nature, the benefits are astounding.

Since getting its start during the 1960’s space race when the cosmonauts used it to build lean muscle mass and increase circulation, WBV has become much more. It has since been adopted among athletes for increased athletic performance, physical therapists for speedier recovery from surgery and injury for patients, among gynecologists to aid in the battle against osteoporosis and to increase bone density, among chiropractors to reduce inflammation and for pre and post adjustment treatment, as well as the general public for treatment of chronic pain, aiding in better sleep, increasing energy, and bettering their quality of life and overall health.

How does it work? WBV targets the body’s natural healing response by increasing cellular oxygen intake, stimulating cellular fluid movement, and facilitating cellular waste removal. As a result, new cells are created which are more resilient and vibrant, and function together more cohesively as a healthier, younger body.

Who should use WBV? In essence, everyone! WBV exposes you to the same types of benefits as 30-45 minutes of conventional exercise, plus some. With the fast paced lives we live every day, exercise is sometimes low on the totem pole of priorities, despite its importance in maintaining a healthy lifestyle. WBV vibration not only gives you these benefits, but has been shown to aid in weight loss, help with sleeping disorders, increase energy and improve the outlook on life of those who utilize vibration therapy on a regular basis.

WBV is especially good for those suffering from chronic pain due to injury, trauma, age, arthritis, fibromyalgia or multiple sclerosis. Because your pain can cause mobility issues and therefore limit your fitness regime, this is an excellent alternative which can help to reduce inflammation and pain while giving you exercise benefits without the stress to your ligaments, joints, tendons, etc.
