Has anyone had a positive experience with one of those Whole Body Vibration Machines that you stand on? They have a platform about the size of a large weight scale that you stand on while it vibrates. I have been wondering of this would be helpful for my 90 yr old mom. Thanks!
I will warn you.........the vibrations are VERY violent! Depending on the model you get, you can tone it down to a lower level, otherwise your teeth will chatter and you feel like urinating every few minutes..........LOL.
I've had positive experience with the machine myself, so I do recommend it. A new study published by the Endocrine Society, found that whole body vibration actually mimics the muscle and bone health benefits of regular exercise. Therefore, using something like a vibrating plate is as good as a cardio session.
Good luck!
