HOW VIBRATION THERAPY AFFECTS SCOLIOSIS

Doctors may not know what causes most forms of scoliosis – though heredity may play a role – but they can treat it effectively. Whole Body Vibration (WBV) therapy goes a long way to improving the lives of those with the disorder. As the spine twists and bends, the entire body is impacted, from bones fusing to create brittle connections to widespread spasms occurring in muscle groups. A scoliosis vibration platform can free up your movement, whether you have mild or severe symptoms.

Specifically, a scoliosis vibration machine is used for:

• Repositioning of fused bone tissue
• Generation of wider range of movement in targeted muscle groups
• Increasing bone density and muscle strength
• Improving balance and postural sway

As little as 10 minutes of treatment per day results in significant progress in terms of muscle relaxation and strength.

MAXIMIZING THE BENEFITS OF WBV PLATFORMS

At the same time that your body is being taught to communicate with your brain effectively, you’re getting secondary results from vibration therapy. You improve your posture, your balance and your flexibility. You gain muscle strength and improve cardiovascular function. You even improve your mood as your hormone production reaches healthy levels. Though not a cure-all – and not for every patient – vibration therapy offers too many benefits to ignore.

Given the mechanics behind vibration therapy, there are unfortunately a few patients who should opt out. The following people should seek other alternatives:

• Pregnant women
• Acute thrombosis sufferers
• Patients with bone tumors
• Those who have recently had surgery to restore joints

DO YOU NEED A NEUROMUSCULAR REEDUCATION VIBRATION MACHINE?

NMR uses several different techniques in an effort to teach the body and brain how to communicate effectively. Those sizzling pangs that run down your back as you bend or stretch can be rooted out of your life completely. Depending on the reasons behind your reoccurring pain, there are numerous therapies you can put to good use. Unfortunately, if you suffer from chronic back issues, physical exercises can be a big problem.

What do you do for exercise when your body hates to move? Consider the benefits of vibration stimulus therapy.

Vibration platforms repeatedly trigger the stretch-reflex-contraction response needed to strengthen the muscles in and around your core. Instead of repeating exercises that require bending, stretching and lifting, your muscles benefit from micro-movements created by a vibrating platform. Repeated in quick succession, the impact of these responses builds up in relatively short time. Studies show significant improvement in just a few minutes of therapy each week.

If you’re low on energy or are suffering from pain that limits your participation, neuromuscular reeducation vibration platforms are a perfect addition to your therapy routine. Likewise, if you’re a physical therapist or another professional involved in rehabilitation an NMR vibration machine is a worthy investment you can use to improve your patients’ lives seemingly overnight.
