Vibration plates have been found to improve circulation, and therefore, lymphatic drainage, says Rachelle Reed, PhD, an exercise scientist based in Athens, Georgia. When you activate muscles, you're going to naturally have more blood flow, she says. So, by design, a vibration plate gets your blood moving.


The article from Women's Health UK discusses the benefits of using vibration plates for fitness. Vibration plates work by sending high-speed vibrations through the body, which can help in muscle activation, strength, and toning. They are praised for their efficiency in workouts, potentially offering benefits like increased muscle strength, improved circulation, and enhanced flexibility in a shorter amount of time compared to traditional exercises. The article highlights that vibration training can lead to better balance and coordination, which is particularly beneficial for older adults to prevent falls. Additionally, it mentions potential benefits for bone density, which could be advantageous for those at risk of osteoporosis. However, the article also notes that while vibration plates can be a useful addition to fitness routines, they should not replace conventional strength training entirely, and there's a need for more research to fully understand their long-term effects and optimal usage protocols.
