Hi @callalloo, I bought the same WBV plate that @tsc has. I've had it for a couple of months and have been using it 4 or 5 times a week, 1 or 2 times a day on the days I use it. I feel better after I use it but have to be careful as I step off of it due to my balance issues. I'm hoping to benefit like you mentioned but I think it's too early to tell for me. This is the model I purchased but in a different color - https://www.amazon.com/EILISON-Vibration-Plate-Exercise-Machine/dp/B0928KYX4T

Hi @johnbishop and @callalloo, another Connect member bought a LifePro Vibration Plate Exerciser that she was very happy with. I looked it up - if I recall it weighed about 30 lbs., but I could be wrong. I think it takes a while for these to work as a review of studies had most participants on the machines twice a day for 15 minutes at a time for a year. The Marodyne LIV was developed in conjunction with NASA and costs about $1600, last time I checked. The Eilison Bolt and the LifePro both have programs that they claim increase bone density. Let's hope!
