How and why it works....
TurboSonic® consists of a sonic (sound) vibrating platform
that the user stands on or performs exercises on which
stimulates bones, muscles, blood vessels and cells in a
manner that promotes their rapid development and
circulation.
The sonic vertical movement of the plate stimulates the
body’s natural “stretch reflex” which causes a spontaneous
muscle contraction to instinctively stretch and contract:
both movements occur at varying rates between 3-50 times per
second. (3Hz to 50Hz) This movement produces mechanical
oscillations with an average cycle length of about 40 msec,
which is the time required to induce a natural monosynaptic
stretching reflex in the respective muscle via the muscle
spindle during one up and down vertical movement. The
neuromuscular system reacts to this stimulation by a chain
of rapid muscle contractions which result in entire-body
vibration.
Exercise causes the body to tire; rest allows the body to
recover. By repeating this process, the body adjusts to the
level of effort, resulting in an increase in physical
performance. This phenomenon, called super-compensation,
similarly occurs when training on the TurboSonic® platform.
However, compared with traditional training methods, greater
results are achieved and hormonal production is increased in
much less time when training on the TurboSonic®.
TurboSonic® comes standard with seven preset automatic
program modes to provide a variety of treatment and workout
options with multiple frequency and intensity variations per
session. If different parameters are desired, the manual
controls may be customized for effective patient treatment
or personalized workout. Frequencies can be adjusted from
6Hz to 45Hz on the Deluxe model and 3Hz to 50Hz on the
Premium model. Each model can adjust the amplitude from 0 to
100 to suit the user's condition.
|
The automatic modes are preset
to 10 minute countdown sessions and depending on the
mode selection, users can burn between 100 to 300
calories. In the manual mode, users can program the
session in 1 minute intervals as well as manually
adjust the frequency and amplitude (volume).
The LCD displays seven treatment modes including
frequency, amplitude, calorie consumption and
countdown timer.
You will see the results of increased flexibility
each time you do a SWBV work-out. Touch your toes
before your session, and again after the session.
You’ll be amazed. And, by the end of the session you
wont even be sweating or feel fatigued. What you
will feel is less stress and more energy!
TurboSonic BENEFITS
NEW: Sonic Whole Body Vibration Therapy
TurboSonic® - Sonic Whole Body Vibration (SWBV) is
an advanced patented technology that is used by
major medical, rehabilitation, therapeutic centers,
senior centers, spas and gyms across the country and
around the world. |
 |
The therapy consists of standing
upright on a TurboSonic® platform that produces sonic
vertical vibrations from 3Hz to 50Hz with variations of
amplitude from 0 to 100. These sonic vibrations are
transferred to your body, stimulating absolutely every part
of your body, from your cells to the blood vessels, to your
organs and muscles.
These muscle contractions stimulate a dramatic increase in
critical blood flow to joints and their connective tissues
throughout the body. The result is reduced
muscle/tendon/joint-related pain with an increase in
bone/muscle mass, strength and flexibility.
Whole-body-vibration offers a host of benefits:
· Provides benefits of both anaerobic and aerobic exercise
· Increases physical strength, dexterity, and endurance
· Increases balance and coordination
· Increases flexibility, range of motion and mobility
· Reduces arthritic pain, joint and ligament stress
· Enhances critical blood flow throughout the body
(oxygenation and lymph drainage)
· Increases secretion of hormones that are important in
regeneration and repair processes, such as HGH (Human Growth
Hormone), IGF-1, and testosterone
· Increases bone density
· Improved pelvic floor function
· Relieves menopausal symptoms
· Increases the “happiness” hormones serotonin and
neurotrophine, substances that support our thinking process
· Decreases the stress hormone cortisol
· Rehabilitates injuries and ailments
· Enhances explosive strength and fast twitch muscles
· Enhances conventional training results
· Speeds training recovery
· Accelerates weight loss
· Enhances pain reduction
· Improves collagen production
· Reduces appearance of cellulite
· Tightens Facial Muscles
· Eliminates the effects of stress
· Relieves tension and chronic pain in ankles, knees, lower
back and neck
Vibration Therapy :: What started out in the Russian space
training programs to combat the effects of the gravity-free
environment encountered by astronauts in outer space has
evolved into a very effective human growth hormone (HGH)
releasing machine. Sonic whole body vibration training
encourage the release of key wellness, recovery and
rehabilitation hormones such as serotonin, human growth
hormone and testosterone.
Clinical Applications
Vibration Therapy is used in the medical field for the
treatment and prevention of a variety of illnesses,
injuries, and adverse health conditions.
Emphysema: Ordinarily, patients with emphysema find it
nearly impossible to undertake any kind of physical
exercise. TurboSonic Vibration Therapy enables patients to
achieve most of the benefits of a regular workout and helps
them to do cardio-fitness training such as walking or even
running.
MS / ALS: Patients with Multiple Sclerosis and Amyotrophic
Lateral Sclerosis are unable to train because the nerves are
no longer capable of controlling the muscles properly.
TurboSonic Vibration activates the muscles directly without
relying on the nervous system. Patients tend to feel better,
have more energy to cope with everyday activities,
experience less pain and are less dependent on others.
Osteoporosis: Millions of Americans, especially women, are
at risk of developing this disease, which results from the
decalcification of the bones due to hormonal imbalances. The
bones become fragile with a tendency to break easily.
TurboSonic Vibration Therapy increases bone density, usually
reversing the effects of osteoporosis.
Arthritis and Rheumatism: TurboSonic Vibration Therapy can
reduce the pain and discomfort of these conditions. It has
been proven to increase blood circulation in the joints and
dramatically improve flexibility and range of motion.
Lower Back Pain: TurboSonic Vibration Therapy can strengthen
the weakened lower back muscles that cause back pain.
(Patients with an acute back hernia should not use Vibration
Therapy).
Pelvic Instability: This condition usually results from
softening of the connective tissue during pregnancy.
TurboSonic Vibration Therapy quickly brings the hormonal
system into balance, enabling connective tissue to recover
its strength and firmness.
Excess Body Fat: TurboSonic Vibration Therapy works several
ways to dissolve excess body fat; it increases metabolism
which burns calories more rapidly; increases blood
circulation and lymphatic drainage thereby removing toxins
faster. Human Growth Hormone secretion increases
dramatically (460%). Excess body fat melts away
effortlessly. People who use the TurboSonic Vibration
Trainer for 10 minutes, three times a week, lose
significantly more fat than those who engage in aerobic
activity for one hour three times a week!
Cellulite: Those lumpy fatty deposits that form an
unattractive dimpling effect around the thighs and other
parts simply melt away under TurboSonic Vibration Therapy.
Stress: Modern life is stressful, causing the release of
toxic stress hormones such as cortisol and epinephrine,
which throw the immune system out of balance and destroy
brain cells by the millions. Sonic Vibration Therapy
increases human growth hormone and serotonin (the
"happiness, relaxation and well-being hormone") secretion,
lowers cortisol and epinephrine secretion 31%, and enhances
circulation, all of which counteract the effects of stress
on the body and spirit.

cure any disease. The benefits listed herein this web site
are based on independent studies which reference years of
research into (WBV) whole body vibration therapy and
training and those studies are independent of the TurboSonic
technology and have not been evaluated by the FDA.
