Vibration Plate Pro
Vibration Plate Pro Professional Side-Oscillating Platform
The Vibration Plate Pro is exclusively manufactured and distributed by Evertop Health Limited, a company specialising in the research and development of whole body vibration technology.
Chosen by qualified practitioners in the fields of chiropractic, osteopathy and physiotherapy, our equipment is used in fitness clubs, health clinics, mobility centres and homes nationwide.
Application
The simplest way to use the Vibration Plate Pro is to stand on it —a great all round body toner. By varying body posture and adjusting the speed of the machine, the Vibration Plate Pro can:
- Relieve back and joint pain in as little as 3 minutes
- Relax muscles and massage joints effortlessly
- Improve visible tone and reduce excess body weight rapidly
- Deepen your stretches and develop postural strength
The wide frequency range of the machine (5Hz - 30Hz), coupled with the ease with which you can control amplitude via foot position, makes the Vibration Plate Pro suitable for people of all ages and fitness levels.
The Vibration Plate Pro accommodates a wide range of programmes, from the rehabilitation of injuries and degenerative conditions through general fitness and weight loss to performance training and muscles building.

The Vibration Plate Pro effortlessly allows you to perform rapid muscle contractions. Not only is the repetition rate very high but as it is involuntary, a greater proportion of the muscle fibres are recruited - around 90%, compared with only 40% under conventional exercise conditions, significantly increasing your fitness potential. This rapid muscle action initiates aerobic cellular respiration, during which fat cells are broken down to supply energy to feed the working muscles.
Bone mineral density
When we first explain the low-load philosophy of our vibration machine to people we are often asked about bone development... “Isn’t bone built under high impacting forces?”
An external load compressing the body is not beneficial. Your bones positively respond to forces applied internally by the muscles, providing functional motion.
This becomes clear when you visualise how your muscles work as levers between the majority of your bones - they are not primarily designed to endure compression stress. Every-day loads should maintain your skeletal health, although this is not always the case.
To compensate for bone resorption, bone-matter depletion or osteoporosis, the muscle load on the bones has to be above the every-day level, though not intense by any measure. Thus, the +30% load of oscillatory vibration training can be used to regain muscle force and stimulate the production of new bone material.
Osteoblasts are your body’s cells responsible for bone formation. The counter-functioning cells osteoclasts work to break down and resorb bone tissue. Muscular activity stimulates bone building osteoblasts and positively effects hormone production. It is no surprise that oscillatory vibrational exercise correlates with positive changes in bone health.
