The industry warns users about the disadvantages of using a vibrating platform. However, these same producers promise a lot of effects from this machine. Optimal training in record time is one of the benefits of this machine. The same goes for back pain.
In some cases, it is recommended to treat back pain. For example, it is recommended to treat low back pain by combining vibrations with other specific exercises, with the follow-up of the doctor of course. But if the vibrating platform is misused, it can cause back pain.
Basically, it is always essential to follow the manufacturer’s and doctor’s instructions when using vibration plates.
Back pain, especially in the lower back, is another problem associated with vibrating plates. Usually localized in the spine, nerves, back muscles and surrounding areas, these pains rarely occur. Of course, the vibrating platform is used to treat osteoporosis and bone disorders, but too much vibration could eventually cause back pain. This is the case, for example, with professional truck drivers who often suffer from low back pain due to the high pressure on muscles and ligaments.
