Vibration Therapy

Whole Body Vibration Therapy is a natural and straightforward, non-invasive therapy.  Based on the long-established, and highly regarded, principles originally developed by NASA vibration therapy was initially designed to help astronauts maintain muscle tone and bone density in space

Vibration therapy works by creating instability within the body with each vibration resulting in reflexive actions within every muscle.  This results in a whole body workout, with minimal impact on the joints, and increased blood circulation.

The vertical vibrations used imitate the gentle concussions seen in natural movement.  These ‘concussions’ work at 30-50 repetitions per second.  Vibrations are gentle enough to soothe but are strong enough to reach the whole body.  This helps to activate the cardiovascular, pulmonary and bio mechanical systems.

Vitafloor vibrating floor system is an innovative and highly effective, fully automated equine vibration plate system. The solution comes in a range of fittings and is either be fitted directly into an existing stable, used as a compact built in solution or is supplied as a mobile, freestanding unit.

This equine therapy provides both notable rehabilitation benefits and physical training to the horse through stimulation of blood circulation and muscle activation. The Vitafloor is used for training, rehabilitation, maintenance and injury prevention. The vibration therapy system enhances recovery time for various soft tissue, bone and hoof problems and also helps prevent colic.

Research has shown evidence of a variety of benefits from regular use within the horse’s daily routine.  These include hoof growth, increased suppleness and fat burning benefits.
