Infrared heat provides all the healthy benefits of natural sunlight without any of the dangerous effects of solar radiation. For years, the healthcare industry recommended infrared heat lamps as a source of far infrared heat but the lamps were cumbersome, extremely hot and difficult to maintain at a constant temperature. The efficacy of far infrared waves is very broad and the subject of recent study by NASA.

Infrared rays penetrate deeply into your skin and sweat glands. The sweat glands offer one of only a few mechanisms that the body has to eliminate toxins and since the skin is the largest organ in the human body it is apparently a very good means for elimination.

When far infrared waves are applied to water molecules (comprising 70% of our body) these molecules begin to vibrate. This vibration reduces the ion bonds and the eventual breakdown of the water molecules causes encapsulated gases and other toxic materials to be released

Among the infrared waves, the far infrared rays, which have a wavelength of 8-14 microns, are especially good for the human body. These waves have the potential to penetrate 1.5 to 2 inches or more into the body allowing for deep heat and raising your core body temperature from deep inside. The far infrared rays consist of similar wavelengths as that which is emitted naturally by the human body. This is one potential explanation of why many feel energetically rejuvenated and balanced from contact with far infrared waves. It is also believed that far infrared waves help improve blood circulation and recovery from fatigue.

VIBRATION EXERSICE MACHINE

How Whole Body Vibration Machines Work

A whole-body vibration machine (WBV) is a versatile fitness equipment that has incredible benefits for seniors. It is also great for people with disabilities, and other specific conditions that prevent someone from partaking in a regular strength training program.

First, you would either stand, sit, or lay down on the vibrating platform of the machine. The vibrations emit energy through your body which causes your body to go into stretch reflex.

The stretch reflex is your body’s response to external stimulation. This causes the muscle spindles, which are parts of your muscles that cause you to contract and relax.

This action can happen multiple times every second, up to 3000 times per minute. This can eventually feel like you have exerted yourself as you would in a regular fitness class.

Vibrating Exercise Machine Side Effects

If you have any of the above conditions, you must consult with your doctor before considering the use of a vibration machine.

Have a pacemaker
Are pregnant
Recovering from an operation
Acute hernia
Migraines
Diabetes
Hip or knee replacements
Have present cancer or tumors
Epilepsy
Neurological conditions
Acute thrombosis
Cardiovascular disease

There is a reason why the machines have a time limit of 15-20 minutes, so it is important to follow the directions properly and limit your time. This way you will receive the maximum benefits of the vibrational workout but without any harmful effects.

Misuse of the machines can cause harmful long-term effects on the circulatory system, musculoskeletal system, and nervous system. You must follow the manufacturer’s guidelines and opt for a high-quality machine.

Benefits of Vibrational Exercise Machines

Increased Blood Flow

Vibrational plates also help increase blood flow through the body which improves your body’s efficiency to move vital oxygen and nutrients throughout the body. This helps to improve your immune system function due to the extra white blood cells and delivered nutrients.

Increased Bone Density

Vibration machines also help to reduce back pain, reduce bone loss, and improve strength and balance in older adults.

Patients with osteoporosis have had incredible results with whole-body vibration as it helps to increase the level of growth hormone and testosterone in the body, which prevents the further development of sarcopenia and osteoporosis.

The production of human growth hormone builds more muscle mass, burns fat, boosts metabolism, and gives you a youthful appearance.

Better Balance

Being older means that you are atrisk of falls which could lead to broken bones, permanent damage, or even death, as aging bones are much more brittle and can break much easier.

The whole-body vibration strengthens your muscles and bones without needing to lift heavy weights, which means that not only will it help you to strengthen your body for weight lifting, but it will also help you to reduce the chances of having a fall.

How To Use the Whole-Body Vibration Machine

The best way to use the whole-body vibration machine is similar to what you would do in a regular gym setting. This includes exercises such as:

Pushups
Dips
Squats
Lunges
Situps
Crunches
Planks
Various stretches

If you perform these exercises with just your body weight, you will be amazed by how fatiguing the whole-body vibrational plates are.
