BENEFITS
Fat Burning
Increased muscle density resulting from the use of V-Robic increases basal metabolic rate, and there for amplifies fat-burning and reduction in sub-cutaneous fat layers special massage positions also target specific problem areas.
Strength and Toning
Vibrational training is used by world class athletes to increase the speed and explosiveness of their muscles. For the non-athlete amongst us, it is an ideal tool for firming and toning. Most people find that within only a few sessions they are already feeling increased tone. Virtually 100% of muscle fibres in all muscle groups can be recruited. Maximum strength and stamina improve noticeably. V-Robic is safe and easy to use. It does not provide as much stress on tendons or joints as normal exercises with weights, yet achieves the same results. And in much less time.
Osteoporosis/Bone Density
Osteoporosis is a major health problem in postmenopausal women and those who have limited use of their limbs. Vibration exercise can reduce the bone wasting seen in Osteoporosis by stimulating the body to strengthen bones.
Arthritis/Back Pain
Vibration exercise has low impact on joints, ligaments and tendons and hence is a useful form of exercise in those rehabilitating from injuries to these structures or in those with chronic damage to these structures for example due to arthritis.
Clinical trials have shown that vibration exercise can reduce chronic lower back pain.
Cellulite/Deep Tissue Massage
Cellulite is the result of enlarged fat cells causing the skin to bulge and can be present in people of all sizes. By improving blood circulation, lymph drainage and strengthening collagen fibres, vibration exercise can reduce cellulite and improve appearance.
Vibration exercise isn't just for fitness and rehabilitation, it also offers a means of massaging muscles throughout the body and can be used for massage and relaxation.
Rehabilitation
The low impact and the rapid improvement in muscle strength from vibration exercise mean it can offer faster rehabilitation from musculoskeletal injuries. This allows a more rapid return to everyday life, a quicker return to favourite pastimes for recreational athletes and a quicker return to peak fitness for elite athletes following injury.
Exercise has a number of health benefits which can be gained via vibration training for people who are unable or find it difficult to exercise conventionally. As well as improved posture, muscle tone and strength, these benefits include improved immune response and an improved sense of wellbeing due to natural hormonal responses to exercise. Those who could benefit include those with various neurological conditions affecting their co-ordination and balance, the elderly and those with limited mobility.
General Wellbeing
V-Robic training increases the secretion of hormones that are important in regeneration and repair processes, such as HGH ( Human Growth Hormone), IGF – 1, and testosterone. Growth hormone is important collagen and elastin production in the skin, resulting in firmer younger looking skin. Levels of the “happiness hormone” serotonin, and neurotrophine, a substance that supports our thinking process, also increase. Cortisol levels are decreased, eliminating the effects of stress.
