I tried a Vibration Plate for 6 months - is this legit??

[@bruinscat]

A funny anecdote from Nikola Tesla’s life. He created a plate that he vibrated using electricity & magnetism, he used to present it during his demonstrations, having famous people from the audience stand on it. The funny comes in when you read that very often the volunteers had to rush to the bathroom to relieve their bowels. I know these plates that you are discussing have a more controlled and comfortable vibration, but your note about b.m. triggered my memory of that story. Thank you for sharing this!

I love my vibrating plate, i am using it almost everyday for three years. I am a disabled person, I can't do most exercises and this machine saved my body from falling apart. 1. Cellulitis: thanks to the plate i do not have any cellulitis on my legs despite being about 200lbs. 2. Definitely helps me with sugar level in my blood (i have diabetes) 3. Recently (5 weeks ago) i got hernia and i was not using the machine for 4 weeks. I started again a week ago because i was missing it and suddenly my back get better thanks to blood flow. My back heals better and faster now. 4. Overall body pains get better thanks to plate

Back in the 1960s I was just a kid who was plagued with constipation that often took me to the doctor's office. My Grandma had a slenderizing salon, which back in the day involved vibrating tables and the strap machine that you put the strap around your midsection and adjusted the strap higher or lower to vibrate various areas. I'm not sure what the theory was but my guess is they hoped it would vibrate the fat off. I love hanging out with my grandma and I used to get on that strap machine all the time. My mom noticed that I didn't have problems with constipation anymore! Vibrating our midsection helps that problem!

On posture: I have noticed something similar happening while walking 10k steps a day. When you sit all day, your body adapts to that. But when you're walking for an hour or two, or use this vibration device, your body seems to know exactly to combat pain and exhaustion: You start to get back into a good posture. I used to be very sore after a walk. After a few months, even my friend noted that my back was more straight, my shoulders back, and sitting posture had changed. I told them: "Well yeah, you can only walk for so long with your shoulders down, bended over back, or uneven movement of the hips." To me, it looks like the critical component being that you're moving your body. Just standing still, or on guard, won't have that same effect.

I bought a Lifepro Rumblex Plus on June 29 because of your video where you tried one out at the convention. They must have updated them, because mine has a remote control that you can wear while you're on the plate. They've also added a screen lock that prevents you from accidentally turning off the machine if you touch the screen. It also has Bluetooth, and I can play music through it. I love it! I started using it yesterday, because I procrastinate, A LOT. It was priced at $400, but I paid under $200, I think. I have the Retail Me Not browser extension, which added a coupon that took off $132, plus I had birthday money, and it was on sale. Thanks for sharing your videos about your experience with vibration plate, because I'm now on my way to less back and joint pain.

I've been using Life Pro vibration plates for about 4 years now. I use the Waver Mini, and the Rumblex Max 4D. Both work great, but the mini is about half the weight of the Rumblex Max 4D. ( I use the Waver Mini when I travel and the Rumblex Max 4D when I'm home ) I felt itchy for about one day, and then the itchyness went away. What I really like about both of these vibration plates is the maximum intensity. I like to use it on full blast for 15 minutes twice a day. ( if you can wait, you often get deals on Black Friday or Christmas, I bought both plates at about one third off by waiting ) They are definitely one of the best investments I've ever made in exercist equipment, especially as you get older and your joints get stiffer a vibrartion plate makes a huge difference in opening up your joints.

After studying the vibration plates I asked my doc. I’m 78 and so that seemed like the thing to do before spending money. She said give it a try as they have been shown to improve circulation. I’ve been using it a couple of weeks now. Changes in the way I feel were immediate. I’ve experienced much of what she describes. As for the GI track, I had not attributed the sudden regularity to the machine. However, my bladder insists that she will not ride the machine unless she is empty. One advertisement was that the plate could help with weight loss. I doubt that, I usually feel hungry when I finish! Because I’m old I decided to begin cautiously. I began by sitting on a chair, feet on the plate, hands on knees and elbows on thighs. I like the way it made my arms as well as my legs feel After a few days I got brave. I placed my house ladder so that I could hold on to the handle and stepped on the plate. Yeah. Good idea. I’m now doing half time standing (and holding) and half sitting. Standing, my head vibrates and I can see where it would not be good on a headache day. I’m still working on how to avoid the head-rattle. I do get hot doing the plate, but I can break out in a sweat doing my QiGong practice, so that may be just me So far, so good.

The itching happens because vibration can cause mast cells in your skin to release histamine. It’s a mild allergy-like response.

Vibration plates were the only thing that allowed me to exercise when recovering from ME/CFS and post viral fatigue because of the increased circulation/oxygenation. Fun fact: lactate acid is high in people with ME/CFS. Vibration plates also helped reduce post exertional malaise (PEM). However, using vibration plates in an apartment where neighbours moan at the slightest noise is an art that involves buying many anti-vibration mats (washing machine mats work well) and finding that perfect spot on the floor that doesn't trigger mass creaking. EDIT: for those too incapacitated to stand or even sit on the plates but who still want the benefits of increased oxygenation passive vibration exercisers like the Chi Machine and similar machines are fabulous.

I think he uses it 15-20 mins per session, once per day, and many of his channel followers, with their own unique health issues, had already been using vibration plates and told him about the many benefits, thinking it would help him also. He said in one of his videos, that a very kind follower had sent him one because he believed in it so much, (not the manufacturer), so that is what he is using.

I don't think in terms of "is this a prescribed exercise?" Playing with movement rather than it being a chore is very helpful as is knowing when to stop rather than forcing it. I've found if you can get into a routine of just boosting circulation daily you naturally progress to experimenting with more progressively advanced poses. I do versions of yoga poses on my plates.

Regarding cellulite: if you pinch your fat and roll it between your fingers does it feel grainy like little rice nodules? If so than it’s probably hereditary, and could be lipedemia (not lymphedema) . It’s basically white fat or stress fat and it’s much harder to lose. Unless you start fasting, in that case it can be turned into brown fat which you can easily lose by exercising. Hope this helps someone 💟💜💟

A month ago I bought one second hand and been using it 2 x 10 min (in morning and evening). What I noticed is the pain in my legs that was resembling to fibromyalgie has gone. It also helps me with posture, as I do my posture fitness routine on it and I feel like it builds the muscles faster that way as when do it without vibration plate. I also have hashimoto and read somewhere it would help reduce anti-bodies. Can’t find the study back, but I’m going to get a blood test to see if the claim is true. For cellulite: a wooden gua sha routine from 3 tot 5 min on my legs morning and evening have made it as good as disappear in 2 weeks time. It’s magic. ;-)

I just got a LifePro. I'm a 62-year-old female with a 20-year history of type 2 diabetes. I've been following a low carb/Ketogenic/Ketovore/Carnivore way of eating for the last year and a half. 75 lbs. down so far and off my non-insulin injectable now 11 months, after having taken it for most of those 20 years. I wear a CGM as well. Today was the first day that I used my LifePro, starting with this morning shortly after rising. 5 minutes on the vibration plate and my blood sugar dropped 30 points. I've used it throughout the day today in increments of 2-5 minutes and my blood sugar is significantly lower today than normal. I did about 30 minutes total over the course of the day. I'm 100% hooked and will continue to use the vibration plate. I have a lot of pain in my hips and knees when walking so I don't get much walking in except for normal errands and so forth. But the vibration plate does not hurt me at all. I'm hoping since it clearly helps with lowering blood sugar it will also help with weight loss. Despite cutting out all processed foods and eating very few carbs, my insulin resistance has been extremely stubborn, and the weight loss has been slow (likely due to inactivity, I work long hours in front of a computer). Between my rebounder, the vibration plate, body weight squats, and kettlebell throws I think the scale is going to start moving. I still have 100 lbs. to lose.

Growing up in Southern California, as a family we would go to Knott's Berry Farm and they had vibrating plates in the park. So we would go on the water rapids ride and then cash in our quarters and sit on them while drying our clothes in the sun. It's a core memory from childhood, and they made me so good after walking and standing for hours.

I just got a Lifepro Waver. I like it. I think I am lucky I didn’t get one with 3 motors going all whichaways…it has pre-set programs with 99 levels of vibration, lasting 15 minutes, changing speeds after every one minute. By the time you find the pose that really gets the jiggle going, then you turn and do it the other side and the minute is up. Beeps, oh boy, we’re going up! lol. No itchy skin, BM, or dizziness. I sat down and did some tricep dips, and that was a little too much vibration for my shoulders, but this machine also lets you just do a few minutes at a lower level. I sit all day and my feet swell, so it does seem to get the blood moving out of them.

[@donnadifani3990]

Yes! It does keep one regular … true. I am 76 and my massage therapist recommended the platform to me several years ago. I was off balance from nerve damage after surgery and it has helped, along with improved mental clarity and energy. My grandkids lovingly laugh when they find me on the machine! I think it has also helped with maintaining muscle during dieting; and if I do overindulge - I pop right onto my machine and actually sleep better. Finally, in addition to the suggested electrolytes, drink plenty of water, eat lots of fruits and vegetables and stay positive. It’s a great life.

[@IHGChick]

I wanted one of these plates to help with osteoporosis; I did some reading on it and found a woman named Becky Chambers who wrote a book about these. Those with more than one motor can have the opposite effect - the motors will not move in exact synchronicity, so there will always be a small desynchronization and that is not desirable. One motor only is recommended.

[@warthog733]

Becky's book is the best source of information on WBV that I have found. I always keep two copies in the house...one for me to use and one to give to friends who I introduce to WBV.

It's a net positive in my life, and I have the cheapest version, I'm gonna put this brand/model on my wishlist for sure.

[@lynnesews9725]

I’m glad you mentioned plantar fasciitis. I suffered with it many years ago, and by accident I fixed it by using my thumbs and put pressure on my calves. By applying deep pressure all around in the calf area, it cured the plantar fasciitis. Using the vibration machine does make sense as another way to fix this.

I have scoliosis and I use the vibration machine everyday for a non-surgical treatment. Basically your brain automatically remembers your posture much better while the machine is activating the tiny muscles in your whole body. So in my case I put a specific device/weight to straighten my spine, and stay on the vibration machine for certain minutes. There should be evidences found by scoliosis doctors. And I'm sure the device is effective for regular bodies for the same function.

[@hubey]

I think the benefits would be similar to rebounding (mini trampoline). So this might be rebounding benefits for those that can't rebound. Rebounding is more of a workout because the muscles contract with every bounce (they contract more than running does, while alleviating impact on knee joints). The benefits of vibration is that they would loosen fascia up quicker perhaps. Fascia is white scaffolding around muscles responsible for transporting hydration throughout the body. Without movement fascia starts to tangle and knot up. Movement shakes them back into good flow formation. Hence feeling more alive after vibrating because hydration flow through fascia has been made more efficient. The reason to bring up rebounding is 2 fold. More exercise for time spent, if people are wanting exercise benefits of growing muscle and stamina, potentially more fat loss. The other reason is cost of a rebounder can be cheaper, especially off brand ones (look for bungees, not steel springs) . Skip rope is even cheaper still, but it exhausts quicker and doesn't protect knee joints like rebounding does. Better yet is skip frolicking barefoot in grass 🙂 (where available) Some people stand on a rebounder at their standing desk. Personally it helps me get some light exercise in while dealing with CFS, and it really helps lymph drainage, which clears brain fog.

[@thatotherdebra1834]

Thank you! I have CFS and Fibro and have been considering getting a rebounder. I am definitely going to give it a try!

Thank you so much for posting your thoughts on your vibration plate - I've been waiting for this video! I purchased a non-LifePro vibration plate, so I don't think it has the 3 different wave types incorporated, however, I do feel the positive effects of the energetic vibrations. I just so happened to have my Levels CGM on this week, and I did some experimentation. If I get on the vibration plate immediately after eating a high-glucose meal (e.g. oatmeal), it blunts the spike temporarily, but 10-15 minutes after I'm done vibrating, my glucose will still spike. I use it at the 10 level, so I can't take more than 10 minutes at a time, but I wonder if I did a lower vibration for 20 minutes, if it would be more effective. Another experiment for another day. Thanks for all of your insights!

[@thoughtgale]

I bought a semi-commercial machine, a Hypervibe G17 because I needed to lose weight from over 230kg and so I needed something with a bit of grunt behind it, but it was at a 'think more than twice' about it price point of AUD$5,500. I fit very much into the category of getting started again in physical activity which is my main use case, but supporting thoughts were I had fallen down some stair ten years ago resulting in a hematoma --> then infection --> large debridement --> compromise lymph system in that leg, so perhaps the machine would help with that in the long term. Also my mum had recently died from a cancer that had eaten away at her hip, so I was thinking a bit about bone health etc. I support your anecdotal conclusions. I do think it helps with promoting regularity and if I'm wanting to bring my schedule forward then I might hop on for that particular purpose. I do like the feeling but my brother hates it so I would agree its probably important to try one before you buy if you can. I'm using it more as a 'floor' to my activity and for the massage like feel after being on it. Its easy to stand or sit on it for ten minutes in the same way as sitting in the sauna for 30 minutes keeps the momentum of doing something each day. At the start that was pretty much it but as I get closer to 200kg I know the heavy lifting is actually being done on the treadmill, stationary bike and, well the '"heavy" lifting'. The other think I would note is depending what you are trying to achieve how you use a machine might be different but that seems part and parcel with all wellness machines and devices. My friend who is a healthy weight jumps on it and uses the programs (and really enjoys it), while I only use the manual settings and her feedback is a wish to temper some as the programs as they can be a bit 'zero to a hundred' which I feel is a similar to your user interface comment. I realise not everyone can drop the amount of money I did on the machine, but if assuming you're not going to burn out any motors like me, then I think focusing on Robin's point about the quality of the direction of the movement will mean you can pick up a great machine at a reasonable price. The alternative is to consider starting a tiktok with slow motion vibrations of a fat stomach, set to stirring music, to recover the expenditure. 🤔

Hello. The skin itchiness after using the vibration plate could very well be due to stimulation of Mast Cells, resulting in degranulation of the mast cells, and therefore the production of histamines!! Anyone with Mast Cell disorders may want to research further. (Many people don’t even know that they have a mast cell condition…such as MCAS; Mast Cell Activation Syndrome.) *Also… you personal may want to look into EDS; Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (another under-diagnosed condition, that many have, and don’t realize.) Your lankiness and “sway-back” posture are common hallmarks of EDS; most likely hEDS (Hypermobility-EDS). Are you very limber/flexible? (Just a thought. 🤷🏻‍♀️) (I was a dancer a lot of my life. I always thought I was just flexible because of my dancing… but, many with hEDS end up in dance and gymnastics because of their hEDS. I received a recent diagnosis of both MCAS and hEDS very late in life… but, have had them both my entire life.) Interesting video. 👍🏼(Vibration plates are also recommended for Lipedema!) I’ve thought about getting a plate, but it may activate/trigger my MCAS even more. Will need to research further. Thanks! 👏🏼

[@Loa44k]

The itchiness happens to me and also when doing other exercise like walking. It happens more when it is cold out. I have considered MCAS as a source of my health issues but nothing comes back definitive. Thanks for your comment, I may revisit this now. 😊

[@KimDsmom]

@@Loa44k It’s very hard to get anything “definitive”. Basically, if you respond to “treatment”; your symptoms are reduced; you probably have it. (That is literally the way that many doctor’s “diagnose” MCAS.) There is (surprisingly) A LOT of great information online. Get educated. You may have to educate your doctor. It’s frustrating, and can be difficult finding a doctor to help you; complicated reasons for this. There are also a lot of supplements with which you can treat yourself! And, DIETARY CHANGES are HUGE. Also lifestyle changes… figuring out your own personal “triggers” to the MCAS (like heat, UV light, stress, lack of sleep, etc… major hormonal events; like pregnancy and peri-menopause are huge triggers, as well). It seems overwhelming at first… and, unfortunately, it’s a long, slow road, but there is hope for improvement; though not a cure. Good luck!! 🫶🏼

[@Loa44k]

@@KimDsmom Thanks. Yes, I have researched a lot on this in the past and haven’t found much improvement with meds. It’s hard to pinpoint dietary triggers but I definitely have environmental triggers. I have slightly high tryptase which may point to HaT. I always suspected mast cells in the itchy legs thing but haven’t read about it being the cause and of course doctors look at you like you’re crazy when suggesting this. 🤪 I need to find a good doctor that specializes in mast cell diseases. Thanks again. 😊

Also the bowel issue I noticed that just today. I stepped on it for about a minute and a half before I had to stop it to go to the restroom. I love this video you put on here! It's very informative and I can now use it as selling point for my wife to start using it in moderation and with modifications!

A really good review and a lot of beneficial information about the Vibration Plate. I just bought one and was looking for info - which you really do give. Thank you for sharing your opinion and review.

I ordered myself one and I’m super excited to try this out!! Thank you for the video!!

Had this for a month or so. 26 pretty young but I have been in military with a combat job so I wear a lot of heavy gears and walking like crazy with like 30-40lbs strap on me. Also I’m a cop so I do heavy lifting. I tried out this Lifepro and the worst I can do is return it but this is the best $160 I ever spent. Help me recover faster from training, gym, 12hr shift of sitting, running do all kind of stuff that put a lot of pressure on my joints. I learned that It helps with joints and stuff and I need my body to be stronger to handle all these heavy gears I’m wearing. Also I heard it helps with losing weight too (just little) so there is that. Very good for whole body relaxation instead of tiny massage gun you have to run through whole body relaxation. I said worth a shot to try out guys.

Love this video because you've presented body functions and systems that help you with th e regular use of the vibration plate beyond the usual. I've seen countless " scientific " videos on how Nasa used them to prepare the astronauts for time in space and less gravity. You are a doll and glad you and mom are benefitting from it. Thank you for this! :)

Thank you! I am so glad you found this video useful. When I first heard about these plates I also just kept hearing it's a NASA technology that's good for a (vague) laundry list of things. It's very nice to actually use it consistently and see what's working. Do you have a plate yourself?

As the machine affects your voice in some positions, I wonder if, at times, it has an effect on your heart function and whether the vibrations can cause mixed signals and dynamic impairment of the heart function?

I watched both of your vibration videos and immediately ordered the same one you have! Thank you SO much for such a thorough video!!

I have not explored beyond the 3 pre-programed routines. They so far provide enough variety to keep things interesting. I also like using the nylon hand straps (on the higher end LifePro models) to transfer some of the energy to my arms. The hand straps also would be useful for someone with balance issues.

I used a vibration plate while going to my chiropractor. I really enjoyed it but could not afford to keep going. I am planning to buy one for home and hopefully for my mom as well.

Thank you for this review. I own o e and ha e used it a couple of times. Now I feel motivated to use it more regularly. Surely I can carve out 10 min a day at least 5 days a week and work up to a higher vibration. Now if I could just figure out how to connect the Life Pro workout handles . . .

Shaking it off is a somatic skill…….it really helps. Generates energy and lets you release old stories….

[@cwdel]

Is there any time of day that it's better to use - like will it help sleep or keep you awake if you do it later in the evening? I'm definitely interested in using it for bone health!

Morning use longer at a higher speed . Increases or energy. Night low speed barefoot for 10 minutes. For relaxation and improve sleep. Turn your head upside down and massage your scalp with or without oil. To increase blood flow to the scalp. Your hair grows crazy long doing this. Do not use the machine if you have a menstrual flow.
