1. Background

Vibration therapy has been gaining strong momentum in recent years as a potential treatment for osteoporosis. Many users and practitioners have reported success with this method in improving bone density.

Scientists have also achieved solid results in research trials, showcasing the promise of vibration therapy as an effective, natural treatment for osteoporosis.

However, most research trials did not conclude the treatment efficacy with consistent results. To date, no documented treatment protocols or established application guidelines come out of any research trial, nor are there valid recommendations for the vibration movement pattern, frequency, amplitude, exercise posture, or routine, etc.

In fact, none of the current research trials is adequately designed or implemented to test various equipment, multiple variables and their interactions.

There is a lack of commercial benefit and research funding to support the development and execution of research trials with enough equipment, sufficient sample size, variable combinations, and minimum durations to produce meaningful results for actual treatment applications.

2. Science Base

Mainstream science acknowledges that mechanical interactions between skeletal muscles and their connected bones play a fundamental role in maintaining bone integrity. Skeletal muscle contractions provide natural, optimal mechanical stimulation to promote a healthy metabolism of bone cells.

How vibration influences our body systems

Vibration intervention offer a unique way to activate and exercise the musculoskeletal and neuromuscular systems, and through creating an efficient skeletal muscle pump effect, it enhances the peripheral circulation.

When applied at an appropriate magnitude, these effects can promote bone growth. The vibration frequency and G-force contribute to improved efficiency and effectiveness.

Vibration intervention may influence cellular processes, such as hormone production and stem cell differentiation.

All these influences and effectiveness work together to support a healthy mucle and bone growth.

There is strong scientific rationale supporting the effectiveness of high-frequency, low-amplitude vertical vibration in stimulating bone growth, particularly at the frequency around 30Hz.

Our linear vibration plate model VT007 is optimized with movement pattern and parameters within this range to effectively engage musculoskeletal activity.

When properly incorporated into physical training, VT007 can induce rapidly repeated intensive muscle contractions, creating a dynamic mechanical stimulation to promotes cellular processes that support muscle and bone cell regeneration.

3. Our Initiative

Individuals and practioners have been choosing our VT007 vibration plate to address their bone loss issues. We have had some customer reports of bone density improvement that may be associated with the daily use of VT007.

However, we don't have any treatment modality documented, outlining application parameters such as training plans, exercise poses, vibration settings, movement pattern and their overall efficacy.

We launched this incentive program to encourage more people to try the VT007 vibration plate, share their experiences and results in a defined, structured manner, and contribute meaningful data to advance the study of vibration therapy as an innovative treatment for osteoporosis.

We offer a $100 cash incentive to customers who participate in this program and share their results and experiences.

Our 90-day free return policy, available in the US, also allows customers to try our VT007 vibration plates risk-free.

4. Participation

If you are diagnosed with osteopenia or osteoporosis based on your recent DEXA scan, you are welcome to participate in this research incentive program.

For the research trial, you will need to purchase a VT007 vibration plate from us and use it to routinely perform vibration-assisted exercises throughout an adequate trial period.

You are responsible for designing your training plan according to your own medical and physical conditions. Refer to our Exercise Guide for this program.

You are required to document your training records using a research questionnaire that we pre-designed for this research trial.

We strongly suggest you to consult a health professional about your use of our vibration plate and your training plan.

The research trial should last for at least a year to achieve meaningful results in bone density improvement.

Not a well-structured clinical trial

This research trial consists of open experiments conducted by diverse participants. It is not well-structured using a scientific method to guarantee consistency, repeatability, or reliability. There are no specific criteria for sample selection, and it does not adhere to a well-defined protocol.

Anyone diagnosed with osteopenia or osteoporosis can participate, regardless their specific medical and physical conditions.

Each participant develops their own therapy plan with varying levels of engagement, which may include vibration-assisted exercises as well as other interventions such as medications and supplements.

We expect this research trial to achieve a large sample size and each experiment completed with an adequate trial duration. Together, we explore a wide range of possibilities for osteoporosis treatment through this practical, easy-to-implement experimental approach grounded in real-world relevance.

7. Exercises Guide

Exercise Poses

Squats, L-squats, deadlifts, lunges, and push-ups are among the most effective exercise poses for strengthening bones that are prone to fractures due to osteoporosis, particularly in the femoral neck, lumbar spine, and proximal humerus.

These popular core strength exercises are proven to be safe and beneficial and can be perfectly combined with the movements of a linear vibration plate, such as the VT007, to enhance their effectiveness.

[ Squat ]
Target upper leg muscles, stimulate thigh bone.
L-squat [ L-Squat ] - tailored for seniors
Target muscles around hips, stimulate femoral necks and lumbar spine.
[ Deadlift ]
Target lower back muscles, stimulate lumbar spine.
[ Lunge ]
Target muscles around the hip, stimulate femoral necks.
[ Push-up ]
Target tripes, stimulate proximal humerus.

[ Dip ]
Target triceps and upper-back muscles

Vibration Parameters

You should start with low intensity and short training sessions. As you get adapted to vibration, you can gradually increase the intensity and exercise time as you progress towards your desired routine level.

Many studies suggest a vibration frequency range of 30–35 Hz for optimal bone health. Our research indicates that this frequency range aligns most effectively with the resonance and damping effects of skeletal muscles, thereby maximizing muscle engagement.

Our recommended vibration parameters to use on our VT007 vibration plate is 30-35Hz at Hi amplitude setting.

Exercise Routine

You should maintain a moderate and consistent daily training routine for a long term commitment.

Depending on your exercise intensity, medical and physical conditions, a daily workout of 10 to 20 minutes may be appropriate.

If you experience any negative effects during the therapy trial, please stop immediately and consult a medical professional.

Improvements in muscle strength and mobility may become noticeable within a short period. However, significant bone growth requires a longer duration of consistent effort.

Resistance Training Intensity

If your physical condition allows, you may consider bearing weight to enhance the effectiveness.

We would recommend a higher resistence training intensity that you can comfortably achieve.

Be patient, persistent and observant
