A vibratory stress relief machine can be quite pricey. Even on the low end they can cost hundreds of dollars. If you are wondering whether you should buy one of these I would first answer two questions:

Will I benefit from vibratory stress relief?
Do I use expensive equipment I buy?

You should only buy a vibratory stress relief machine if you know that you get stress relief benefit from it. The only way you can know that is if you try using one for about 30 days. You’ll have to use one at a club or a spa to do this. You may find after a few days that you don’t like the process or that it doesn’t benefit you in any qualitative way.

Now to the second question: will you use one if you buy it? Are you the type that buys a Boflex after watching the infomercial but then you never use it. It just sits in the basement or in the spare bedroom collecting dust. If this is you, then don’t buy a vibratory stress relief machine.

It’s So Hot!

How Does It Work?

The vibratory stress relief machine at first glance does not look any different from any other machine you might see in a health club. You stand on the pad and grip the handles. There are a variety of speeds to choose from. Most of the cheaper machines can only support people who weigh less than 250 pounds, while the more expensive ones can shake an elephant, if an elephant would consent to stand on the pad!

You just stand there while the machine shakes around like a martini. It is said the vibrational stress relief machine feels the same as working with a pneumatic drill. Users often find them selves laughing during and after use. The theory is the vibrations still force your muscles to work and the blood to pump, but you don’t have to jump around and sweat so much to look better and feel better.
