Frequently Asked Questions

• How does Vibration work?
  The Total Body Shaper (TBS) causes our body to react to the oscillation movement which simulates walking. This natural stimulus causes our body to produce involuntary reflex muscle contractions. Muscles will contract up to 45 times per second and as acceleration increases, your body works against a far greater influence or “load” of gravity in every movement you perform.
• Many claims are made regarding vibration technology. Can you really achieve such wide and varied benefits?
  Yes. Claims made result from over 30 years of research at Universities worldwide. Check out the Scientific Studies section in our website
• Is there research behind this technology?
  Vibration training has 40 years of research behind its science. With any technology, the individual needs to take a critical look at the research and validity behind it. Whole Body Vibration has been featured in such prestigious and influential peer reviewed journals as Spine, Journal of Bone and Mineral Density, and Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise. With its potential applications, new research is constantly being initiated across numerous North American and European Universities.
• Is it safe?
  Yes. The TBS is safe for most individuals if you have a specific health concern, please consult your doctor first and discuss the contraindications that would apply to you. Whether physically fit or sedentary, almost everyone can enjoy the benefits of this Body Vibration machine. Whether overweight or suffering from aches and pains, or recovering from injury, you will notice benefits from the TBS.
• Can I exercise all my muscles on the TBS?
  Yes. Various muscle groups will be addressed according to the individual changing positions on the TBS. The vibration is highest in the body part that is closest to the platform and will lessen as it travels up the body.
