How Does Vitafloor Work?
The Vitafloor works by sending vertical vibrations, varying between 30-50 repetitions per second, through the whole body. This whole body vibration therapy creates ‘instability’ and thereby causes each muscle to make reflexive actions to stabilise themselves.
The vibrations replicate the concussion effect of a natural movement without placing additional strain, wear and tear, on joints and ligaments. Therefore the Vitafloor offers a safe and non-invasive therapy that not only benefits the feet, but also provides benefits to the internal organs, musculature, fascia, and all the way up to the horse’s topline.
The Vitafloor vibrating floor system comprises a 5 inch platform with a layer of rubber on top. A waterproofing collar on all fitted models prevents bedding and fluid from finding its way underneath the platform. The internal motors cause the gentle vibrations, at different frequencies depending on use – training or rehabilitation.
The system is fully computerised and has a timer which automatically shuts off the program when it has finished.
All models are safe and user-friendly. Vitafloor can potentially save many man-hours of work and requires only the minimum of maintenance.
