Vibration Plates

[OceanSpray]

Has anyone used vibration plates as a like somatic healing thing?

My sister got one and is positive it’s helping her lose weight which had my mom buying one. I am working on weight loss in a different way- but when I was doing research it seems like the vibrations can act similarly to somatic therapy and/or even EMDR for releasing stored trauma.

Does anyone have any insight or experience with this?

Are you sure it's directly helping your sister to lose weight ?!! It doesn't really work like that cause it comes down to calories in calories out (CICO ) but depends on the individual's metabolism and stuff so I'm assuming it's cause she's making changes and in a calorie deficit.

There was already a vibrating device in mid century with a band behind the back, definitely remember there was videos in a gym and it was marketed as "fat burning" and I don't remember correctly but think it was proven by science to be a scam. I don't buy this.

Stuff like this can work for stored trauma but it'll have to be if believe it and your subconscious want to let it go.

Oh I’m positive she’s not actually losing weight with it, that was just context for how I got familiar with it.
