BEST VALUE ANYWHERE FOR THE MONEY
THERAVIBE is the very best vibration platform that money can buy. It has the latest and most advanced technology, the highest
dependability with the broadest range of professional uses.
HISTORY OF TWBV (Therapeutic Whole Body Vibration )
Whole Body Vibration therapy was initially developed as a means of decreasing the loss of muscle mass and
bone density when astronauts are in space. TWBV later proved to have athletic applications, resulting in
improved flexibility and strength. Much of the success of the Russian Olympic teams of the 1970s and 80s
has been attributed to the use of WBV training.
 
Over the years the use of TWBV has expanded, and is now used for general health and wellness, anti-aging and beauty. TWBV is a valuable complement to other therapies and has been adopted by top professional athletes to reduce stiffness, speed injury recovery and improve agility. Broad range of healthcare professionals now offer TWBV for general health and wellness and as drug-free treatment for a range of chronic conditions.
BIOMECHANICS
The physical effects on the body during vibration are a consequence of the rigidity of the skeletal structure and the elasticity and mass of the muscles, organs and the vertical movement of the plate. When the plate pushes upwards, the entire skeletal structure moves upward with the plate (assuming that knees are not bent). As the skeleton moves upwards, it pulls the muscles and other soft tissue along with it, but the inertia and elasticity of the soft tissue causes it to stretch out slightly before it catches up. A bit like pulling up quickly on an elastic rope tied to a weight. At the same time, the joints in tension (shoulders, elbows, and wrists) open up slightly, gently stretching the ligaments that hold the joint in place.
 
On the return cycle (as the plate tops out and begins descending), the same process occurs in reverse. Muscles bunch up in response to the reduced load and joints move in the opposite direction. This process repeats many times during a session of vibration therapy. The passive activation of the muscles and other soft tissue lubricates and loosens joints and improves circulation.
 
 
BENEFICIAL VIBRATIONS: Therapeutic Whole Body Vibration (TWBV)
In comparison, therapeutic whole body vibration (TWBV) is the controlled and purposeful exposure of the body to vibration of specific frequency and force in order to achieve desirable health benefits. Principle distinction between therapeutic vibration and the undesirable variety is that therapeutic vibration is applied for short periods of time (minutes instead of hours), at a much lower magnitude, and is smooth and consistent (absent
of shock).
 
HARMFUL VIBRATIONS:
Unhealthy forms of whole body vibration do exist. These are characterized by long duration exposure to high levels of vibration that include high impact shocks. People exposed to this kind of vibration can be found in the following occupations: truck drivers, operators of earthmoving equipment and operators of hand-held vibrating pneumatic equipment.This kind of vibration can be harmful and occupational health and safety regulations
govern safe levels of exposure to this kind of vibration. THERE IS ALSO VIBRATION EQUIPMENT OUT THERE THAT PRODUCE HARMFUL FORMS OF VIBRATION, ESPECIALLY IF IT IS THE "SEE SAW" OR ROTARY STYLE MACHINES WHICH CAN DAMAGE YOUR BRAIN IF OVERDONE.
EQUIPMENT CHARACTERISTICS
THERAVIBE establishes a new class of therapeutic whole body vibration (TWBV) equipment. TheraVibe was designed to be the most reliable, dependable, safe, versatile and easy to use whole body vibration machine. THERAVIBE is the "Bentley" of whole body vibration machines (but surprisingly not the most expensive).

KEY FEATURES:
BENEFITS
 
The health benefits experienced by many users of THERAVIBE whole body vibration are so broad (and sometimes profound) that listing them all sounds "too good to be true". However, these health benefits are not surprising when understood in context. The key to understanding the benefits of TWBV is to look past the secondary effects to the underlying causes; the physiological responses to standing upright on a platform that moves rhythmically up and down.
COMMON APPLICATIONS
** Chiropractic & Physical Therapy Pre and Post Treatment
Whole body massage on THERAVIBE relaxes joints in preparation for an adjustment. As a post treatment option, THERAVIBE helps to set adjustments,
reducing the likelihood of joints returning to their previous position.
 
** Pain Management
Therapeutic whole body vibration (TWBV) particularly the low force, low frequency variety, demonstrates promise as a drug-free treatment approach for fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). TheraVibe's ability to control the vibration force such that it can be set at a very low level is critical to successful therapy.With each successful treatment, the sensitivity to the whole body massage
decreases, allowing more effective subsequent treatment.
** Rehabilitation / Injury Recovery
Massage is recognized treatment to speed recovery of many occupational and sport related injuries. TheraVibe provides a full body massage from head to toe, front to back. A unique characteristic of massage using therapeutic whole body vibration is that it reaches deep muscles just as effectively as surface muscle.
** Anti-Aging
TWBV provides several benefits that are very relevant to an aging population. These include improved circulation, more flexibility, better balance and improved bone health.. Regular use also tightens face, jaw and neck for a more youthful look!
** General Health Benefits
Increased blood circulation means more oxygen and nutrition delivered to cells, especially in areas where circulation is poor as a result of injury or disease.
 
Improved function of the lymphatic system results in improved fluid balance throughout the body, improved fatty acid distribution and improved immune function. The lymphatic
system is the garbage collection system for the body, so improved lymphatic health equals more effective waste and toxin removal.
 
Overall joint health, balance, coordination and flexibility result from the influence of the gentle vibration of the joints when standing on the THERAVIBE platform. With each movement (occurring several times per second), the ligaments around the joint are gently stretched. The cartilage is palpated, lubricating joint surfaces. With each vibration, a flood of signals travels from the joint to the brain and then back again to the muscles to maintain posture and stability. This process improves coordination and balance.
 
Increased muscle activity leads to an increase in lean muscle mass, while the rhythmic tension of the tendons on the bones is thought to cause of increased bone mass (or reduced loss of bone mass), one of the most researched effects of TWBV.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
The contraindications below are typical for average vibration settings and are necessarily conservative. It is always recommended that you check with your healthcare provider for clearance first if you are dealing with serious health condition. Some of these things can be done with physician clearance.
TESTIMONIALS

[Fibromyalgia Pain Relief] Thanks to TheraVibe I am pain free for the first time in 5 years. Before TheraVibe I had tried every treatment under the sun for my severe fibromyalgia. Some worked in the short term but eventually the fibromyalgia got the better of it . Since using TheraVibe I am not only pain free, but I also have more energy and noticed some welcoming inch loss and body toning. Thank you TheraVibe!- Veronica N, San Clemente, California
 
[Chronic back pain] I am a 54 year old female interactive chef in a 5 star resort. It's a physically demanding job that keeps me on my feet all day. I have chronic back pain from injuries sustained in a serious car accident in '91 that is aggravated by the nature of my work. I visit the chiropractor and massage therapist on a weekly basis in order to cope, although relief is small and temporary. Since using TheraVibe for 2 weeks, I no longer feel the need for these treatments. Recovery is faster too; previously it would take days to recover from a tough work day where now it happens overnight. The pain that used to shoot down my legs is gone. I feel that my body is finally starting to recover from my car accident and I can now foresee a time when I will be free of the pain and discomfort that has plagued me for almost 20 years.- Jan H, Laguna Beach, California
[Frozen Shoulder & Energy] TheraVibe whole body vibration therapy changed my 8-month pattern of sleepless nights after just two relaxing 10-minute sessions. While traveling for business with a heavy briefcase and luggage I sustained two tears in my shoulder causing excruciating pain and severely limited use of my right arm. My orthopedist diagnosed my condition as a "frozen shoulder." Physical therapy irritated my condition and anti-inflammatory pills, pain medication and a cortisone shot did nothing to relieve my pain. Gentle stretching and patience were prescribed as my body took its natural course to heal itself. Three doctors told me that complete recovery could take as long as two years. I was fortunate to discover TheraVibe's whole body, deep-tissue massage. After nearly three weeks of daily 10-minute soothing vibration, I no longer feel the pain in my shoulder with light exercise and my range of motion has almost doubled (and continues to improve). I no longer need to take a 2-hour nap to make it through the day. In fact, I find myself waking restfully before my alarm clock goes off and I am beginning to incorporate a light run into my day for the first time in my life! I must also mention the extra perks I've noticed from my TheraVibe sessions... improved muscle tone, a healthier glow to my skin, and more energy to juggle my busy days as a businesswoman, wife, and mother of two teenage boys. Thank you, TheraVibe, for your gentle rehabilitation.- Lindie O, San Clemente, California

[Back recovery & Energy] I have been using TheraVibe for 18 days now. I started off using it once a day on the Wellness setting and then moved to the Workout session. I can say I am hooked! I wake up each morning looking forward to getting on the machine. Since using the TheraVibe my sleep is better then ever and I wake up early and ready to go. I don't feel groggy and I don't want to sleep in as usual. I have more energy, feel more toned and my endurance is higher. Due to major back surgery and a disk replacement to fix my broken spine I cannot use a lot of the equipment at a gym. I believe TheraVibe is helping my back to get stronger and giving me the workout I need. I truly don't want to be without it. It just makes me feel so good.- Becky B, California

[Respiratory] My overall health has always been okay with a weakness associated with my lungs and respiratory ailments. When I started on TheraVibe™ 60 days ago with full blown bronchitis (coughing, no energy) I was over the bronchitis within 7 days and my energy and vitality were at an all time high. Within two weeks I noticed a big change in my sleep patterns.  I could stay awake for long periods of time and then when I did go to sleep it was deep and refreshing sleep. The best part is that after many years of dieting and exercise I lost inches and dropped a full dress size. I can only imagine what other people are gaining from this life changing machine. It is a true blessing.- Kim M, California
 
[Athletic Conditioning] Since using TheraVibe I have an overall sense of well being, I need less sleep and have more energy. While I have not directly lost weight, my muscles have shown increased definition, and there is a noticeable increase in overall performance, flexibility, and strength. My neck and lower back have strengthened and I seldom have pain in these areas anymore. As a tri-athlete, I look forward to continuing to take advantage of both the short and long term benefits of Therapeutic Whole Body Vibration not only for athletic conditioning, but also to promote a healthy and happy lifestyle.- Krirsty C, California
 
[Health & Wellness] TheraVibe energizes & Invigorates me. I also noticed my muscles are more toned. I check my own blood pressure, and was happy to see it has gone down. In addition, my congestion cleared up, and I have not had to use my asthma inhaler like I did before. I love the way it makes me feel all around. I feel great and handle stress much better then I have in the past. I highly recommend TheraVibe to anyone wanting to feel and look great!- Ned M, San Clemente, California

[Wellbeing] The TheraVibe System, in three weeks, has transformed me - body, soul, and mind. My mental attitude towards my health has done a 360 degree turn. Prior to being introduced to this amazing machine I always had the best intentions of exercising and eating healthy but did not have the drive. With TheraVibe I have experienced an amazing transformation. Some of the physical changes include the ability to sleep through the night without the aid of medication and feeling energized when I wake up. I have lost both weight and inches, and my bowel movements are normal. I no longer suffer with the severe lower back ache from arthritis that has plagued me for the past 15 years and my posture has improved. My double chin is a thing of the past, my facial skin is tighter, my skin is radiant and even my hair feels healthier. My bouts with depression are obsolete and the weight on my shoulders that sometimes paralyzed me no longer has a threshold on me. I continually experience a positive mental attitude. I find myself unafraid to take on the new challenges which have presented themselves in the past 2 weeks. I am now thankful on a daily basis for the blessing I receive. I am amazed that a single machine can do for me what the TheraVibe has done.- Rosanne L, California
