Vibrafit

The movement of the vibration plate simulates the body s natural stretch reflex  (tonic vibration reflex). This is similar to the knee jerk reaction that occurs when the knee is tapped by a reflex hammer in a doctors office. Without thinking of it, your body responds with a strong involuntary muscle contraction leading to your leg  kicking  out.   With the Vibra-Fit technology these strong muscle contractions can be repeated at a rapid rate. Due to the involuntary effect on muscle contraction, nearly 100% of the muscle fibers are recruited. Compare this to conventional training where there is only an average of 40% muscle recruitment. This benefits the rehabilitation patient looking to add stability and strength to all muscles around their joints, to the athlete looking to maximize strength gains.   The gentle rapid contractions allow the muscle to work as a pump in introducing blood to even the smallest blood vessels. This leads to the ability of the body to carry off waste products much faster, leading to increased peripheral circulation. Positive effects:       Increase of the bone density, treatment of osteoporosis     Better blood circulation     building up of muscular strength and endurance     Develop the reflexes and the proprioception     Decrease of cellulite     Better metabolism, purification, fat burning     Tissue lifting
