VibraSonic is a platform that vibrates while the user stands, sits, etc., on it. Exercises can be performed while on the platform, which will have an amplified effect on the body compared to performing these exercises while on solid ground. The biological reaction to vibration is dependent on the frequency, magnitude, duration and type of vibration — or how often, how much and how long the vibratory stimulus is. There is an involuntary muscular response to vibration; the muscle contracts and relaxes at the same rate as the Hz set on the VibraSonic unit. Specific sound frequencies make muscles contract more often and to a greater degree. For example, if the unit is set to 30Hz for 30 seconds, the muscle will contract and relax 900 times.
VibraSonic Whole-Body Vibration employs a speaker system with magnetic voice coils and audio-circuits, rather than mechanical vibration. VibraSonic technology works to overcome all negative aspects of mechanical movement. Vibration spin motors have excessive noise, unnatural directions of vibration, harsh direction changes, and can create a stress response in the body. VibraSonic which is in a natural vertical plane of motion, has fully adjustable intensity, and is a true sine wave directional change. All of which results in a much more enjoyable and healthy vibrational exercise experience. Mechanical vibration plates are simply not as effective or healing.
Many types of intermediate sports, like walking, power walking, horse riding, etc. are all performed at low frequencies, between 1 ~ 8 Hz. It is now possible with VibraSonic to exercise at these ultra-low frequencies. The movements are only vertical, which is the direction we experience through most of our physical activities.
