Whole-body vibration therapy can offer some health and fitness benefits, but it's not a replacement for your regular exercise regimen. For whole-body vibration, you sit, lie or stand, on a machine with a vibrating platform. As the device vibrates, energy is transmitted to your body forcing your muscles to relax and contract dozens of times each second.
Vibration therapy is recommended after body sculpting treatments to forcibly jump start the draining of fat through the lymphatic system. 10 minutes on the machine is equivalent to doing 1 hour of cardio.
