The Reviber

    

 

Proven to Increase Bone Density & Oxgenated Blood Flow

Various studies have proven that simply standing on a vibratory surface will increase bone density, making this tool essential for those prone to osteoporosis. But that’s just the start: The Reviber also increases oxygenated blood flow, particularly to the muscles. An effect attributed mainly to the reduction in the viscosity of blood and its increased speed through the arteries.
 
Further studies have proven that Reviber stimulation alleviates back pain; increases flexibility; and due to its effect on muscle strength and tone, the Reviber also  improves posture,  and where continence is a problem it also strengthens bladder control. All this from using the Reviber for only a few minutes several times a week, and with more studies being conducted it is exciting to wonder what new  applications might be discovered.

Tonic Vibration

The Reviber activates the human body’s vibration reflex. Adaptation of the body to this Reviber stimulation, an effect called super-compensation,  happens so thoroughly that the body becomes stronger very quickly. Several gyms are now using larger units and are reporting that doing a standard workout on a Reviber greatly increases the beneficial effects of the workout.

Pleasure & Peak Performance

For improving the health and fitness of the elderly or inactive, through to the conditioning of professional athletes, we feel sure that you will be delighted with the wonderful feeling of the Reviber.  Such is the enjoyment that you may be tempted to over-indulge, but for optimum benefit and peak performance you need only use it for a few minutes at a time.  

For maximum effect and the whole body response you simply stand on the comforable rubber topper. But you can also use it to massage particular parts of the body: For example, by placing your hands on the Reviber, your shoulders and neck will be massaged; while sitting on it will distribute the sensation to your torso and thighs. All the health benefits of Tonic Vibration AND sheer enjoyment - From the Reviber!

• The Reviber has two speeds and the dimensions are 45 x 42 x 28cm (h).

Increases Bone Mineral Density (BMD) & Oxygenated Blood Flow

The study in this link concluded that standing on a vibrating platform is "more effective than walking to improve two major determinants of bone fractures: hip BMD and balance".  But that’s just the start: it helps to increase oxygenated blood flow to the skin and particularly to the muscles. An effect attributed mainly to the reduction in the viscosity of blood and its increased speed through the arteries.

Strength & Speed:  This stimulation is proven to increase strength and speed: This study on men found that "...the biological mechanism produced by vibration is similar to the effect produced by explosive power training (jumping and bouncing)." From studies on women the researchers concluded that standing on a vibrating surface is as beneficial as going to the gym for improving leg strength and speed of movement!  Researchers have not only concluded that Whole Body Vibration is "safe and well tolerated in the elderly" but the same study also discovered that it aids in their walking ability!

The Reviber can be used in a variety of positions:

	Standing for maximum effect and the whole body response simply stand on the comfortable rubber topper. For those with poor balance you may wish to position the Reviber in a doorway so that your hands can provide additional support.
	Sitting For those who find it uncomfortable standing, position the Reviber in front of your chair and place both feet on the plate. Keep your back and neck straight, for a stronger vibration push your legs harder onto the plate.
	Back Relaxer Sit on the Reviber and allow your upper body to relax, this vibration should relax your back, hips and thighs.
	Squat Stand on the Reviber keeping your back straight and knees slightly bent, gently squeeze the leg muscles. You should feel tension in your buttocks and back.
	Shoulder & Neck Relaxer Kneel down in front of the Reviber, whilst keeping your back and neck straight you should then outstretch your arms and rest them on the plate.

All the benefits of Tonic Vibration from the Reviber

Superior Motion:
The Reviber is not simply a vertically vibrating surface, in addition it incorporates a subtle lateral movement. This unique motion allows a small shift of weight from one leg to the other. Inferior vertical-only vibration often transmits an uncomfortable vibration to the head due to the absence of lateral shift.

Reviber Contra-indications:
Serious heart problems, pacemaker users, pregnancy, recent surgery (within 6 months), children under 7, acute thrombosis conditions, retinal detachment, any other serious illness. If you have any concerns then please consult your doctor.
