Vibration Exercises And Rehabilitation

vibration excercises and rehab in broomfield

As Russian and American scientists raced to get astronauts into space over four decades ago, they both hit upon a unique way to keep space travelers from developing serious muscle atrophy in zero gravity. The techniques involved platforms that delivered intense vibrations throughout the body without pain or discomfort. These vibrations cause the muscles to tense and relax dozens of time per second, leaving them stretched and toned after just a few minutes. This technology for vibration exercises is now available at Mile High Spine & Pain Center to use on their patients suffering from a wide range of conditions. It can also have amazing results for athletes looking for a boost beyond their current training routine.

Why Should I Choose Professional Vibration Therapy?

Since consumers are always on the search for exercise equipment that takes the work out of exercise, many companies offer home versions of these vibration platforms. However, there are numerous reasons to choose professional treatment over your own direction. Clinical research showing that vibration exercise has real effects also shows that patients only need a few minutes of high intensity vibrations to see positive results. If you stay on the platform too long, you can actually damage your nerves and spine quite severely. The vibrations only help if administered for the right period of time. Our professionals at Mile High Spine & Pain Center can ensure you don’t aggravate existing conditions or create new ones by trying to improve your overall health.

Why Should I Choose Professional Vibration Therapy?

Vibration can be therapeutic, but it is also a powerful tool for improving performance. The quick contractions caused by the shaking allow your muscles to develop a lot of strength and reaction speed in just a few weekly sessions. An athlete that is looking for an edge over the competition may be able to gain a few seconds for sprints or an extra inch on their jump.

How Does Vibration Exercise Help With Pain And Injuries?

When a serious spinal injury leaves you waiting on a slow recovery process, vibration could help. The shaking increases blood flow throughout the body, which could speed up healing time according to the clinical research completed by the Rehabilitation Sciences Research Centre. However, too much vibration could also make the injury worse. We will use imaging to ensure your injuries are healing without further damage due to any treatment methods. Other benefits of vibration include:

  • Improved balance for older adults
  • Greater flexibility and a wider range of movement due to reduced tension and inflammation
  • Improved mineral density in the bones, which can prevent breaks in the hip or shoulder

Small doses of vibration exercises can also help when you are struggling with conditions like chronic pain or spinal alignment issues. Tight muscles will relax after a quick session of shaking out the tension. The treatment is easily combined with other options like massage therapy, stretching, and home exercises. However, if you are pressed for time, you will still see great results after a quick 15 minute session on the vibration platform at our Broomfield office.

Can Vibration Exercises Help Me Lose Weight?

Early research shows that these platforms may work for weight loss. However, it’s still best to combine regular visits to our office in the Westminster and Broomfield area with other forms of whole body exercise. These vibrations will support strong muscle development that makes it easier to workout long enough to burn plenty of calories. While you shouldn’t rely on vibration exercises as your only method for slimming down, it can support weight loss as part of a larger treatment plan.
