Vibration therapy and vibration training
We use vibration therapy and vibration training to strengthen muscles and improve muscle function. This training can also be used to improve a patient’s balance and help rebuild peak bone mass. The vibration technology devices, such as the “Power Coach”, were developed in Switzerland. The directed vibration affects deep muscle tissue and strengthens specific tissue layers selectively. This therapy can support and intensify other manual forms of therapy.
Strengthen and stabilize your muscles directly and efficiently
During the natural aging process, muscular strength, mobility and stamina decrease. The reasons may include lack of physical activity in earlier years or the absence of a structured programme to counteract these effects of aging. Scientific research shows that not only stamina is important for a healthy heart and circulation, but muscular strength and muscular activity also have a significant impact on overall health.
At this point, our vibration equipment can help. It is a high-precision technological development specifically designed to stabilize muscular strength. Originally it was developed for astronauts to prevent muscle wasting and bone loss after long periods in weightlessness. During therapy, patients stand on a vibrating platform that constantly changes the direction of movement. The muscles react automatically to these movements, which trains the body without noticeable effort.
Vibration therapy can have a positive effect on symptoms such as muscle atrophy, osteoporosis, paralysis, back pain, poor blood circulation, limited joint flexibility and stress incontinence.
Other applications:
Reconstruction of muscular strength
Our “Power Coach” can help rebuild both the dynamic and postural muscular systems of the body. An adjustable frequency of 7 to 60 Hz triggers rapid muscle contractions.
Improvement of coordination
During therapy, balance stabilization can be achieved through vertical movements of the vibrating platform combined with additional exercises.
Increasing bone density
Osteoporosis can be prevented with the “Power Coach”. This effect is further supported by an active lifestyle in later years.
Reduction of cellulite
About 80% of women older than 25 experience cellulite (“orange-peel skin”). While muscular training activates local fat metabolism, the massaging effect of the “Power Coach” stimulates lymphatic flow. The combination of these effects can improve tissue structure.
