@lhankins thanks for the input. Man, they have an aggressive marketing campaign for sure. The biggest problem is that there isnt any evidence based science to back up the bone density benefit, although, I have had several people mention the same benefits that you have stated. I like the idea of helping muscle aches.
It is easy to see how it would be a great tool to increase blood flow, stability and balance and as a result of increased blood flow, quicker muscle recovery.
I think the muddy part would be deciding how much of a contribution it brings to the other bone building attempts we have in place.
Dont know if this is good or not so good but have been looking for a used plate and there just doesnt seem to be any available. Either means people are really really happy with their purchases or there arent as many purchases as Power Plate reports.

It’s definitely an investment; not cheap. With that said maintaining good balance and mobility are paramount in avoiding falls. I use it as a part of my health program. I don’t believe there is one magic thing that can be done to improve bone health or simply maintain it. I would say that I look forward to getting on it everyday and that triggers the impulse to workout, move more and continue to be active. It’s definitely not a magic bullet. Good luck with your decision and best wishes on your bone health journey!
