Can an elderly people train with Physio-Plate?
Of Course. The exercise on the vibrating plate is particularly useful both to limit the bones lost and to stimulate the increase of the bone mass. The application of the vibratory therapy represents a therapeutic means of adoption in geriatric medicine to stimulate the bony metabolism, also with the presence of an osteoporotic degeneration. Another important physiologic parameter where vibrations can act on is the blood circulation. The vibration therapy could bring a reduction of the blood viscosity and an increasing of the average speed of the circulatory flow (Kerschan and coll., 2001). The peripheral circulation can considerably increase up to 150%, with beneficial effects on the metabolism and on the contribution of oxygen to the tissues; instead, the circulatory bed favours the decreasing of AP. Physio-Plate is therefore particularly useful for people that suffer from circulatory diseases such as arteriosclerosis or insufficient lymphatic drainage.
