TOTAL BODY VIBRATION

Very Important Information About Whole Body Vibration

There are two types of technology available: The difference is substantial between the “piston” vibration equipment and the Triangle Oscillation System (T.O.S.). Our physicians have found that while the T.O.S. technology used in Whole Body Vibration (WBV) has surprising and astonishing results for health, exercise and body toning, there are questions raised about the advisability of using equipment based on “piston” style technology. Vibration and “G” force may have an undesirable a long term impact. Anyone who has used a jack hammer, truck or other device with the “up and down” piston movement and vibration knows the problems that can develop from backs (truck drivers and others) and various physical areas (known to cause carpal tunnel).

The Triangle Oscillation System (T.O.S.) vibrates at the correct megahertz(s) from a medical and body toning standpoint, using a lift mechanism along with vibration. The T.O.S. system used by the Nobel K1 generates systematic involuntary muscle contraction with less G force than the “piston” systems. This stimulates receptors in the Achilles tendon called golgi bodies that stimulate nerve receptors which track up to the cerebellum (the part of the brain that is responsible for balance). This pleasant rocking and rolling action causes the brain to tell the muscles of your body to actively contract to maintain its equilibrium, thus creating a therapeutic and muscle toning workout.
