Vibration Therapy consists of a sonic (sound) vibrating platform that the user stands on or performs exercises on which stimulates bones, muscles, blood vessels and cells in a manner that promotes their rapid development and circulation.
Exercise causes the body to tire; rest allows the body to recover. By repeating this process, the body adjusts to the level of effort, resulting in an increase in physical performance. This phenomenon, called super-compensation, similarly occurs when training on the platform. However, compared with traditional training methods, greater results are achieved and hormonal production is increased in much less time when training.
You will see the results of increased flexibility each time you do a SWBV work-out. Touch your toes before your session, and again after the session. You’ll be amazed. And, by the end of the session you wont even be sweating or feel fatigued. What you will feel is less stress and more energy!
There are different types of whole body vibration machines in terms of the motion of the plate. The motion of the plate is the main distinguishing characteristic among vibration machines and determines the main uses of such a device. Note that quality of design and manufacturer plays a major role too. There are vibration machines that appear to operate the same way, ranging in price from $200 to $18,000. The difference is how they feel and their reliability.
TheraVibe™ is the best vibration platform that money can buy. Manufactured exclusively in the USA, TheraVibe has the latest and most advanced technology, the highest dependability and the broadest range of professional uses. We also offer the Evolution that is between the Turbosonic and the new Theravibe.
TheraVibe's unique range of frequencies makes it ideal for a wide range of uses including:-
Customers often ask about the difference between TheraVibe and the TurboSonic. This comparison table was compiled based on a detailed knowledge of TurboSonic technology acquired through the sale and support of these machines. TurboSonic have three models design for professional use. The latest generation of machines, the X7, has been selected for the purpose of this comparison. Although TheraVibe far surpasses the X7 in features and durability, the X7 is the closest match of the TurboSonic range. TheraVibe and the TurboSonic both use linear motors to drive the vibration plate, and hence provide a very similar subjective experience in terms of the type of the vibration. The major distinguishing features of TheraVibe are:
|
|
TheraVibe
|
Turbosonic (X7)
|
|---|---|---|
Origin |
Designed, manufactured and supported in the USA. |
Korea |
Frequency |
3Hz to 80Hz across full range. |
3Hz to 50Hz in two seperate ranges. |
Frequency adjustment |
Continuous across full range. |
Two separate ranges; one below 25Hz and above. Changing frequency from 25Hz to 26Hz requires an interruption of operation (stop and restart on higher range). |
Weight of machine |
270lbs |
361lbs |
Mobility and accessibility |
TheraVibe can be moved by one person using the built-in wheels. Slide pads on the bottom allow easy positioning on most surfaces (wood, tile, carpet). Only one height adjuster needs to be trimmed to balance TheraVibe. |
- No integrated wheels. |
Plate height |
3.5" (from the ground). |
10.5" (from the ground). |
User interface |
Feedback from customers of both machines suggests that TheraVibe has a simple interface with improved ease-of-use. |
Non-intuitive interface that has many options that users find confusing. |
Preset Programs |
TheraVibe has 22 preset programs. More programs are added over time, and existing users can easily update their unit to include these new presets. |
7 preset programs. |
User weight compensation |
TheraVibe uses a patent pending mechanism that automatically calibrates to the user's weight to ensure an identical ride from the lightest to heaviest person. |
No compensation for users' weight. The plate is supported by springs that compress more for a heavier person, resulting in diminished vibration capacity. |
Motion control system |
TheraVibe measures the actual movement of the plate over a thousand times per second and dynamically adjusts the power to the motor to control the force of vibration and movement of the plate. |
Provides the same power to the motor regardless of actual movement of the plate. Because of this, the machine will fault and shut down if the user steps off the plate during operation. This problem severely limits use in a dynamic exercise environment where is frequent movement on and off the plate. |
Adjustment of vibration force |
TheraVibe allows the user to control the actual force of the vibration, regardless of their weight. Furthermore, TheraVibe dynamically compensates for change in frequency in order to maintain the same subjective level of force applied to the body. |
Provides a qualitative "volume" control that simply adjusts power to the motor without accounting for the weight on the plate. |
Software upgrades |
Easy upgrades (via USB Thumb Drive). |
No provision for software upgrades. |
Energy efficiency |
High. Uses super efficient (more than 97%), high performance switching amplifier. |
Low. Uses inappropriate audio technology amplifier. Results in high heat levels. |
Design life |
TheraVibe uses patent-pending zero-maintenance design. There are no parts to wear out and no lubrication required (even after years of use). TheraVibe is designed and built for continuous commercial use where the highest level of durability and dependability is paramount. |
Some TurboSonic dealers have had return rates as high as 20% due to failures in the field mostly due to the following: |
Safety |
TheraVibe continuously monitors 14 independent physical parameters and performs continuous internal software monitoring to ensure safe operation of the equipment. |
TurboSonic monitors neither the motion of the plate nor the internal health of the system. |
Mains power sensitivity |
Uses high quality switch-mode power supply unit with high immunity to voltage fluctuation on the mains. Runs without issue on a long extension lead. |
Many units blow fuses until other measures are taken (isolating any "noise" on the power line or installing a "line conditioning" surge protector). |
Magnetic card reader |
TheraVibe has an optional magnetic card reader. The card reader controls device access and allows the use of credit cards or stored value cards. Cards can also be personalised to limit the available preset programs (per user) as well as force setting on each preset. |
No card reader option. |
