How long have you been using a vibration plate? Have your DEXA scores improved in consequence?

I think this would be hard to measure for most of us, if you did nothing else but the Marodyne maybe but I'm guessing most did what I did, made several or many lifestyle changes after receiving diagnosis. Apparently there are studies in progress, I very much look forward to seeing those results. If it's all bunk with no benefits of any kind, what will those of us who were suckered/full of wishful thinking do with the machines?

I used a VibePlate from August 2020 until a few months ago when we got the Marodyne LIV. I haven't had a DEXA since we switched to the Marodyne.
My DEXA scores have stayed pretty consistent since 2019, although I've had DEXAs on four different machines in that time so they aren't directly comparable.
If my scores do increase the next time I get scanned, which will finally on the same machine as my last scan, I won't be able to say whether it was due to the Marodyne or not since I've changed other things as well. I'm in the "Well, it can't hurt to do this" camp with vibration. It hurt my wallet but that pain has passed. 😊
