Osteoporosis Treatment Research Incentive Program

Vibration Therapeutic LLC sponsors and organizes this Osteoporosis Treatment Research Incentive Program.

1. Background

Vibration therapy has been gaining strong momentum in recent years as a potential treatment for osteoporosis. Countless 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 the necessary sample sizes, variable combinations, and minimum durations to produce meaningful results for actual treatment applications.

2. Our Initiative

Many customers purchase our linear vibration plate models (VT003F and VT007) to address their bone loss issues. Many successful individual cases suggest that using our vibration plates may help improve bone density.

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 our vibration plates, 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 vibration plates risk-free.

3. The Science Behind

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.

Our linear vibration plate models are designed to produce vertical movements with high frequency and low amplitude. When properly incorporated into physical exercise, this vibration movement can effectively induce rapidly repeated skeletal muscle contractions. The contraction force, delivered as rapid pulses of intensive mechanical stimulation, serves as the beneficial therapeutic intervention needed to promote bone growth.

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 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 individual 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.

5. Registration

To register for participation, please purchase a vibration plate from our website using the discount code BONESTRONG at checkout to receive a $1 discount.

The use of this discount code indicates that you are registered for the participation. We will send you the registration confirmation by email. Your order number serves as your participation ID.

There is no need to submit your bone mineral density (BMD) data at the time of registration.

Registration is limited to new purchases made directly from our website. It does not apply to previous purchases or purchases made through other channels. The cash reward cannot be combined with any other promotions or discounts.

The profit from your new purchase helps support this research program.

6. Equipment

We recommend using our linear vibration plate model VT007, which offers an adjustable frequency range from 10 Hz to 40 Hz, along with two amplitude settings. This flexibility allows you to begin with a lower intensity and gradually increase to your desired level as your body adapts to the vibrations.

7. Exercise 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 ] - 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

8. Deliverable

At the completion of the trial, you will need to submit the following data to us.

1. DEXA scan reports taken before and after the vibration therapy trial.
2. Research questionnaire that documents your training records, BMD, and other relevant information for the research.

You will receive the $100 cash incentive after the submission of the deliverable.

9. Incentive Payment

At the completion of the research trial, please complete the research questionnaire that we designed for the research trial and submit it along with your DEXA scan reports to Vibration Therapeutic LLC.

Once we receive these files, we will immediately send a payment of $100 to you via check or Zelle with our appreciation.

10. How Your Data is Used

Your research questionnaire and DEXA report will be posted anonymously on our forum website available for anyone to view.

Your report data will be used for scientific research about using vibration therapy to treat osteoporosis.
