Bone Density
10 minutes on the Power Plate sends approximately 30,000 electrical signals to the brain.
This results in an increase in bone density.
Part of the aging process occurs because we lose more cells than we produce in a 24hour period.
Unfortunately this means our bones get weaker. Hormones play a big part in how fast or slow this happens. This is where the Power Plate produces results.
In your youngest years collagen and calcium are sent to your bones and the localised area is nourished with appropriate minerals etc.
As we get older these systems of repair diminish. With the Power Plate, the vibration of your bones increases sensors sending signals which in turn increases hormone production and helps your body.
Osteoporosis.
One of the first applications of the Power Plate was for combating osteoporosis.
It has proven to be a very effective weapon against this condition. Research has shown a linear connection between muscle strength and bone density.
Vibrational training enormously stimulates bone tissue. In a recently published study post-menopausal women trained on Power Plate 3 x a week for 6 months resulting in a tremendous increase in bone density being measured. Using the Power Plate can stimulate muscle in a safe and effective manner.
There is minimal stress on joints, ligaments and tendons.
