Vibration therapy (vibromassage)

Vibration therapy (lat. oscillate, swing) is a type of hardware massage. It is based on a technique for transmitting oscillatory movements of various amplitudes and frequencies using a vibration apparatus (vibrating massager). The degree of impact of such vibration on the human body is determined by the frequency and amplitude of vibrations, and the duration of exposure.

Vibromassage effectively affects various systems of the human body. For example, it excites, or, on the contrary, calms overly excited nerve endings. To stimulate nervous activity, it is recommended to influence the body with weak vibrations, and to restrain it with strong ones.

Vibromassage leads to increased local blood flow and lymphatic drainage, activation of tissue trophism, activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary system and mobilization of the body’s adaptive capabilities, can improve the functioning of the respiratory system, activate metabolic processes, and have a beneficial effect on neuromuscular apparatus. Hardware vibration massage improves the performance of tired muscles, as it causes positive reactions in the nervous system and improves blood supply to the muscles, as well as improves redox processes in muscle tissue.

Currently, there are many varieties of vibrating massagers, the most popular of which are manual, belt, belt, mats, pillows, capes, chairs and specialized mono massagers (for arms, legs).
