OMG…amazing! I have a hand held massage unit and it absolutely is helping to the point where I’d considered just this morning to buy a vibrating plate.

I bought the AXV vibrator plate from Amazon. Consumer Reports says this is the low cost option, $100. I have had about six sessions on it, 20 min per session. I think it is helping but the truth will be if I can successfully reduce the pred. On 9 mg now. I have found nothing reaches the pain, not massage, not ice, no pain creams. However these vibrations shake up the achy muscles and relax them, releasing the pain. I do stretches and lift light weights on the plate.
