This technology, known as Whole Body Vibration (WBV), is used in fitness and rehabilitation to enhance muscle strength, improve balance, and boost circulation.Impact on the Lymphatic System:The lymphatic system is crucial for removing waste and toxins from the body. Unlike the circulatory system, it doesn't have a central pump like the heart and relies on muscle movements to transport lymph fluid. Using a vibration plate can stimulate muscle contractions, promoting lymphatic drainage and enhancing circulation. This process helps in detoxification and supports the immune system.In TCM, health is maintained by the harmonious flow of Qi (vital energy) and blood throughout the body. Practices that enhance circulation and energy flow support overall health. Vibration therapy aligns with these principles by stimulating muscle activity and improving blood and lymph circulation,  promoting the smooth flow of Qi and blood. Sources: Lifetime Vibe - Lymphatic System Function: Drainage and Massage ABMP - Traditional Chinese Medicine Vibration Therapy May Reduce Muscle Fatigue * Are you a health coach looking for a whole lot more info about cutting-edge therapies AND ancient wisdom?
