Whole Body Vibration for Osteoporosis

I’ve been using the Marodyne for about 4 years and my DEXA scores improved significantly after two years of daily use. My hip score went from osteoporotic to osteopenic. My lumbar improved by 6%. Since that initial improvement, the scores were stable the following DEXA. I take no meds. I do supplement with calcium and turkey tail mushrooms, genestein , boron and MK7. I walk a lot and wear a 10 lb. weighted vest. I can’t say for sure if the LiV is the main reason but it certainly may be a factor. Best of luck!

Can you tell me about the
genestein you are taking. My cousin did soy isoflavones with exercise and went from osteoporosis to osteopenia. Thanks.
I also have used the Marodyne for a few years. .

I posted above that in addition to using the Marodyne LIV platform 3-4 times daily, I take a few supplements like low doses of calcium, boron, Turkey Tail mushrooms, etc. I also walk daily and do yoga. But I’ve been walking and doing yoga for years prior to my diagnosis 4 years go with osteoporosis. My endocrinologist was shocked when my DEXA showed about 9% bone density improvement in my femur and 5% in my lumbar. This is virtually unheard of without being on some sort of Rx for bone loss. She kept asking me if my primary care had put me on fosamax or something else and I told her “no”. So that’s one experience - since it doesn’t pose any risks to me and may be helping, I will continue to use it.

Thanks so much for our reply. I have been researching different brands, but have not heard about this one. I will definitely research it. Could you tell me if they were any restrictions as to who could use and who shouldn't use it.

@brendammc Do you know, or can you ask, what they were using for soy isoflavones and what they did for exercise. Nice to hear of this success!

This was quite a few years ago and all I know is it was genistein and calcium and Vit D. She did exercises at Osteofit 2x week. She is no longer with us so I can’t tell you anything more.
You’d likely find more up to date info if you researched.

I have been using Marodyne Low Intensity Vibration plate for 2 years along with an initial Reclast infusion. Results have been wonderful! After my diagnosis of Osteoporosis, I am now diagnosed with Osteopenia. My doctor feels the good results are because of a combination of using both. The FDA has recently approved a device worn around the hips to provide low intensity. Vibrations but it is limited to those with Osteopenia and you need a doctors prescription. That is because they did all their testing only on this one group of people. Since I now have the Osteoboost belt, I no longer need my Marodyne and am trying to find a home for it.
