More results in half the time. Increase muscle strength twice as fast. Cut recovery time in half. These claims sound to good to be true. But when it comes to Whole Body Vibration (WBV), more strength, more speed, rapid recovery,increased flexibility and coordination are all possible. This revolutionary form of training is sweeping the country, and BCPT is excited to offer it to its patients. WBV is the transmission of mechanical vibrations to the body through the VibePlate, stimulating fast twitch muscle fibers. One of the safest and most reliable modes of WBV transmissions is the VibePlate, developed in Lincoln, Nebraska. By standing on the VibePlate, your body automatically adjusts to the vibrations and produces a stretch reflex, causing the repeated contraction of posturaland stabilization muscles up to3600 times per minute. When you participate in a training program on the VibePlate, tremendous results are possible.
