Multiple Sclerosis and Vibration Machines
I have been reading a lot about vibration machines and their possible impact on muscle mass/weight loss. All of which would have a positive impact on my daily life with multiple sclerosis. I was particularly interested in how these machines could be beneficial for those with multiple sclerosis or any type of disability. Because you are not really doing weight-bearing exercises or things that require a lot of strength or balance, this could just be the thing for those who are too disabled to do traditional exercise. This is a great way for people with multiple sclerosis to help gain strength, balance and flexibility.
I am very curious about these types of machines and whether they really deliver. I have researched it on the web and I can't really find anything above and beyond the benefits of traditional workouts and obvious associated benefits. Here are some of the benefits that those of us with multiple sclerosis might find:
- increase in bone strength
- increase in muscle mass
- faster recovery from injury
- improved flexibility and balance
- increase in muscle strength
- improved blood and lymph flow
- reduced back pain
- reduced cortisol (stress hormone)
- decreased cellulite
Now these are all benefits of regular exercise. However, vibration training does all of this in 10 minutes, three times a week versus a traditional workout. It is really the dream workout that does everything and helps you lose weight in just 10 minutes a day. I am seriously considering purchasing one of these machines. I am trying to find information that refutes the benefits and I just can't seem to find it.
I can't imagine something that could be easier for those with multiple sclerosis or again, any disability where movement and functionality is limited.
