Physiological changes seen with WBV that increase energy levels:

• WBV has been show to increase testosterone levels which is linked in both men and women to their energy level, mood and libido, as well as sexual performance in men.
• As men get older their testosterone level gradually declines — typically about 1 percent a year after age 30. Women have testosterone levels about 10% of men’s to begin with and their testosterone levels drop rapidly at menopause.
• WBV increases circulation bringing additional oxygen and nutrients to all cells providing the fuel for cellular metabolism, which creates energy.
•  WBV raises serotonin – a major antidepressant effect which can dramatically affect energy levels (see blog post Powerful Antidepressant).
• Increased muscle strength (see blog post Muscle Strength).

Vibrational energy (chi) is unblocked and balanced:

• A different energy, your vibrational energy field, is a “living matrix” with several electromagnetic characteristics. One of these characteristics is piezoelectricity, the ability to turn mechanical vibration into electrical vibration. (Source is researcher James Oschman, in Norman Shealy, M.D., Ph.D.’s Soul Medicine, p. 212.)
• Therefore, when you stand on the mechanically vibrating plate of a Body Vibe machine you instantly turn the mechanical vibration of the plate into all the different electrical energy vibrations you need to help heal, balance and unblock all parts of your energy system.
• Since your Chi energy is what powers and guides your whole system, free-flowing, vibrant energy will result in many mind and body benefits including more physical energy with which to heal your body and enjoy your life.

Evidence of vibrational (chi) energy changes: 

• The dramatic decreases in pain that are often seen with Whole Body Vibration are most likely due to chi balancing effects as they happen so rapidly and dramatically that only  vibrational Chi energy can explain it. (Similarly, the traditional Chinese energy medicine of acupuncture can lead to rapid and powerful pain decreases. For example, I once had a tooth extracted painlessly with only acupuncture as the anesthesia, and I am generally very sensitive to all pain including dental work.)
• I have seen hundreds of people step on a Body Vibe in pain at the natural health expos where I exhibit, and get off 1-2 minutes later with much or all their pain gone.
• I also have many clients whose chronic pain disappears or decreases with regular WBV use. (see the Physical Therapy page of Vibrant health’s website for testimonials).
• When people who are “energy sensitive” get on a Body Vibe they report feeling energy shooting around in their bodies, their energy meridians unblocking, and their chakras spinning faster.

Anecdotal evidence of mental and physical energy increasing:

• In my experience of using Whole Body Vibration with thousands of people, most report increased energy and well-being. Below are two particularly amusing and dramatic cases.
• A woman in her late 50’s came to see me. She had very low energy to the point where she would use a shopping cart at the grocery store even if she only needed one item, just so she would have something to lean on while walking around.  After one week of vibration she was no longer using a shopping cart as a walker.  After 3 months of twice weekly vibration, she came in late one day after a big snowstorm… she had shoveled not only her own driveway, but also her elderly neighbor’s.
• Another true story:  A woman in her 40’s came to see me complaining of low energy and general malaise.  After 2 weeks of twice weekly vibration sessions she told me she went home after the last session and scrubbed the kitchen floor by hand.  When she finished the floor she started in on the walls.  Her husband, sprawled on the couch where they normally would both be sacked out after a long day, exclaimed, “What has gotten into you!”
