Whole Body Vibration

Whole body vibration (WBV) is a relatively new approach to improving health. While we have viewed WBV from a negative standpoint as it relates to occupational exposure with truck drivers and construction workers, research is beginning to elucidate a powerful positive effect on our health if done in moderation.

Lifecare Chiropractic is one of only a handful of clinics to now offer multiple frequency, multiple amplitude Whole Body Vibration in Arizona.

Medical research has shown that WBV is able to build bone mass, build muscle mass, improve circulation in the legs and brain, burn calories, improve overall sense of well being, increase flexibility, rehab injuries and even reduce stress. Possibly the most striking are WBV effects on Parkinson's and multiple sclerosis. One study done on Parkinson's patients found a dramatic 25% improvement in stiffness and tremors with only 4 short treatments. In multiple sclerosis patients, one short session showed improvements one week later in markers of balance and stability. These indicate health benefits that cannot be obtained from any other treatment.

The experience of WBV itself is remarkable. Standing on the platform for each ten minute session takes the patient across a variety of frequencies and amplitudes. Most have a hard time describing the experience as anything other than "wow!"
