Why WBV?

Whole body vibration is not a new technology but it has only lately become recognized for the powerful wellness benefits it provides.

Vibration has been used as a therapy since ancient Greece when a cotton covered saw was used to apply vibration to parts of the body that were not functioning properly.

Whole Body Vibration Technology delivers the benefits of exercise without the sweat, pain and boredom!

You’ve heard the old adage: No pain, no gain? Well, I want to tell you what you’ve always really known: It isn’t true. I’m convinced that idea was coined by some macho type who loved to sweat and grunt and suffer at the gym, pumping iron and punishing themselves, and can’t bear to see anyone else taking it easy! But, for the rest of us, a more moderate approach to exercise makes way more sense. In fact, if you’re as out of shape as I was, an easy, gentle exercise routine is the ONLY way to ease into a healthier lifestyle.

The great thing about whole body vibration is that it’s:

• super easy – even suitable for children and the elderly
• you can begin as gently as you like
• you can ramp it up to suit yourself
• you can say ‘goodbye’ to sweaty, painful sessions that leave you in agony for days afterwards with aching muscles and stiffness

In fact, whole body vibration is so therapeutic it’s often used for rehabilitation after injuries and many physiotherapists and chiropracters use it!
