1:58

righty , everybody , send us your questions

2:00

. I have tons of questions that you guys already sent to us

2:02

, so we are going to go ahead and start , but

2:05

first of all , before we get going

2:07

, becky , I would love for you

2:09

to tell everybody a little bit of who

2:11

you are and how you came about

2:13

. Whole body vibration .

2:16

Okay , well , so first I want to say thank you

2:18

so much for having me here , renetta . That's

2:20

, it's wonderful , I'm thrilled . And

2:22

I have been

2:24

doing whole body vibration for 25

2:26

years , which makes me one of the longest

2:29

people doing it in the US certainly

2:32

the longest east of the Mississippi

2:34

and or

2:37

in the northeast and I

2:39

got into it because I was really

2:41

ill . I spent most of my life

2:43

trying to get better , was sick

2:45

from when I was a kid , and

2:48

in my 20s

2:50

I started trying alternative natural

2:52

health approaches and they turned out to be way better

2:55

for the most part for my problems

2:57

, and around

2:59

age 30 or so I found

3:01

whole body vibration and I just

3:04

saw that I was suddenly getting

3:06

. It was making a huge impact

3:08

because I was already doing for 10

3:11

years like lots of nutrition things

3:13

and I

3:15

was even doing powerful energy medicine

3:17

called homeopathy and

3:20

all kinds of dietary stuff and supplements

3:22

and all kinds of stuff and , of course

3:24

, exercise . But adding

3:27

whole body vibration had a massive

3:29

effect and I just woke up the next day

3:31

and was like , whoa , I have found what

3:33

I'm going to be doing , cause I wanted

3:35

to be in natural health but I wanted something that was

3:37

really I could feel like was just

3:39

really going to make a difference . And I already one

3:42

session and I noticed a big change

3:44

in my immune system . Wow , which was

3:46

where my problems were really . It

3:48

was awful . I was just allergic to everything on the planet

3:51

. I had chemical sensitivities

3:53

. I couldn't go anywhere . I couldn't eat anything

3:55

. I had lost like 100 pounds . It

3:57

was just insane .

3:59

Wow , it was terrible , yeah . So where

4:01

were you when

4:04

you ?

4:04

first when was I ?

4:05

Yes , when you first heard about Hobite Vibration

4:07

.

4:08

Okay , well , I had been working with a doctor in California

4:11

for a good 10 years and

4:13

he was keeping me alive , which nobody

4:15

else could do . Even do that I wasn't going to make

4:18

it without him , and he was all natural

4:20

but a medical doctor and very

4:22

energy oriented also , so

4:24

he was so awesome I

4:28

didn't even have to go there . Most of the times we

4:30

would just talk on the phone and he would be able

4:32

to help me . And he was , you know , california

4:35

whole body vibration started

4:37

in Russia close to 50 years ago now

4:39

, moved into Europe

4:42

when the iron curtain

4:44

came down and then eventually

4:47

hit California in the

4:49

early 2000s . And

4:51

so then my doctor

4:54

saw it and realized at that time

4:56

it had been originally developed for Olympic athletes

4:58

and cosmonauts because it's great

5:00

for your muscles , muscle development , strength

5:03

, physical therapy and bone density

5:05

. But he realized like almost

5:07

immediately , and it was thought of as athletic

5:10

equipment . And it is

5:12

an exercise , but it is vastly more

5:14

than that . It is just body , mind

5:17

and spirit huge effect

5:19

on every system in your body . The vibration

5:21

you stand on a plate which is

5:24

physically vibrating , and the vibration

5:26

travels through your whole body , every

5:28

cell , every organ , every neuron

5:30

is firing , shooting signals into your brain

5:32

. That just lights up and

5:34

ends up working very powerfully body

5:37

, mind and spirit and

5:39

a lot of people will notice a difference right away

5:42

. It's just a very powerful effect

5:44

.

5:45

So that's how I got started , perfect

5:47

, so let's go through some of the questions that we have

5:49

over here . This

5:52

is a very specific question what is the recommended

5:54

amount of time to use plate for

5:56

lymph drainage ?

5:58

Lymph drainage . Okay . So it

6:01

is fantastic for lymph drainage

6:03

and it is quite popular and

6:05

well-known and people are searching for it

6:07

because of that . And it does

6:09

work that way very powerfully , because

6:11

every muscle fiber in your body

6:13

is going to be tensing

6:16

and relaxing when you're standing , just automatically

6:18

. You don't even have to exercise . You just stand

6:20

on the plate and all your muscle

6:22

fibers are going to tense and relax the same

6:25

rate . The machine is vibrating , right , well , your lymphatic

6:27

system works by muscle

6:31

fibers , muscles tightening and relaxing

6:33

around your lymphatic system vessels

6:36

and forcing the fluid through . It doesn't

6:38

have a pump . The muscles are the pumps , right

6:41

, okay ? And so there you are . You're just

6:43

standing there and your whole system

6:45

is pushing lymph out , and

6:53

that's great . The biggest problem , honestly , folks with

6:55

whole body vibration and lymphatic drainage is doing

6:57

too much and getting a too big a detox . You know , like if you go

6:59

in a sauna and you just stay there forever or

7:01

something you do too much . Detoxing

7:03

too fast can strain systems

7:06

that are already under strain

7:08

from too many toxins in your body . So

7:10

, you don't want to do too much , and one

7:13

of the big things that I promote

7:15

and push with vibration is to

7:17

start slow and build up , because

7:20

if you try to do too much too soon

7:22

you can feel worse

7:24

actually from a big , huge detox or too much stimulation

7:26

of your body too soon , you can feel worse actually from a big huge detox or too much stimulation

7:29

of your body too quickly . So start

7:31

slow , build up , use the right kind of material

7:34

machine and work

7:36

towards . This is where where'd you want to know

7:38

how much you should do . Work up to doing

7:40

10 minutes at 30 to 35

7:43

Hertz at least once a day . That

7:46

be wonderful , ideal . But I just also

7:48

want to tell you so you don't feel like pressures

7:50

, I have to increase so fast any

7:53

vibration at all . You're going to get a huge

7:56

detox . It is huge

7:58

. So you just start slow and you

8:01

watch how you feel . As long as you're

8:03

feeling good over the next 24 hours

8:05

, then you're doing it , then you're doing

8:07

a good job and you're not doing too much . But

8:09

if you detox

8:12

, overload will not necessarily

8:14

show up immediately . It might show up the

8:16

next morning . So if you try to do 10

8:19

minutes the first day on a more powerful

8:21

machine or setting and the next

8:23

day you wake up and you feel horrible setting and the

8:25

next day you wake up and you feel horrible . You probably did too much

8:27

vibration .

8:33

That's great to know . Yeah , I do have to bring this up because it seems like whole

8:35

body .

8:36

Vibration is exploding right now . Yeah .

8:36

What is the difference of this vibration

8:39

and other vibration plates , for example power

8:41

plate or all this other one ? What are the different

8:43

types of vibration ?

8:45

Okay , well , it's a big subject . There's a ton of different machines

8:47

out there so I'm not going to go into too much

8:49

detail , but there's a lot of different

8:52

factors . There's the

8:54

way that it moves . My machines

8:56

are what's called vertical

8:59

vibration and the

9:01

whole plate moves in the same direction

9:03

. A small amount , it's

9:05

both and they go and it's fast . It's

9:07

kind of like a purring cat and

9:10

it basically it's turning you into

9:12

a purring cat . And keep in mind

9:14

that cats have nine lives . Right

9:16

, they're super strong , they

9:18

can , their musculature is

9:20

and whole system bones , muscles

9:23

, joints , very , very strong . That's why

9:25

they can . Actually it's not a myth they can

9:27

fall from great heights and not get injured

9:29

. Only cats purr and

9:31

only cats have nine lives . They

9:34

know now that it is actually the purring

9:36

that makes them so strong . So machine

9:39

is turning you into a cat and

9:43

if you do get injured , your

9:45

testosterone and human growth

9:48

hormones are also elevated when you're

9:50

using vibration . So you heal

9:52

from things that well

9:54

, cats heal from things that would kill another

9:56

animal . And when you're vibrating , with

9:58

the right kind of vibration , you're raising

10:00

human growth hormone and testosterone and

10:02

you can heal much better . That's why I'm

10:04

saying like physical therapy makes you stronger

10:07

and you heal faster . All the athletes love

10:09

this and everybody should be doing it , wow

10:12

. So , as far as different machines

10:14

oh my gosh , there's so many different ones

10:16

and there's a lot of misinformation

10:19

out there and confusion . Everybody's

10:23

trying to get you to , you know , go with their machine

10:25

, so they're trying to make it look like theirs is the kind

10:27

that you need , but the truth is

10:29

there's a lot of different kinds , and I

10:33

go into it on my website . There's a comparison

10:35

section and it's in all my books . But

10:39

you want the vertical vibration

10:41

and some companies even miss . They

10:43

rename their , their motion

10:46

and call it vertical and it isn't vertical , it's

10:48

something else . Um , so it can

10:50

get very confusing out there , I know what is the dangers

10:52

of getting those oscillating machines

10:54

? well , I I wouldn't so much

10:56

say danger , I would just say that this

10:58

type is the best , okay , and other

11:00

types , they , some of them , I mean there

11:02

are some kinds I really don't recommend because I

11:04

do feel like they could hurt you . But

11:07

oscillating machines a lot of people

11:09

do get good effects and results

11:12

from them and they do have benefits

11:14

, but they're not as good , especially

11:17

when it comes to being optimized

11:19

for your brain and your neurological

11:21

system and your energy field . And your neurological system

11:24

and your energy field . With

11:30

vertical vibration you want very smooth in order to go

11:32

out of a stress reaction and a

11:34

fight or flight and into sort of a more meditative

11:36

state where your body relaxes and focuses

11:39

on healing right , and it's also much faster

11:41

, which gives you a more intense effect

11:43

. So it's smooth and

11:45

fast , whereas oscillation

11:48

I don't know if you can see me , but oscill so it's smooth

11:50

and fast , whereas oscillation I

11:52

don't know if you can see me , but oscillation it's like

11:54

this , whereas one is like this . Oscillation

12:00

is like this , with one foot on either end of a seesaw , so it's kind of a very wild motion

12:02

, and because it's wilder , it has to run a lot , lot slower

12:04

, which they try to make you not

12:07

realize by by

12:09

making an arbitrary scale for

12:11

the speed and they call it one to a hundred , but

12:13

it's not actually hertz , which

12:15

is vibrations per second

12:18

, and you're supposed to .

12:18

Anyway , it's very confusing but , um

12:21

, but it makes a lot of sense to me , and

12:23

I'm so glad glad that you explained that . And

12:25

as soon as you started talking about the cat purring

12:28

and what whole body vibration does

12:30

to your whole body , the first thing that came to

12:32

my mind was humming

12:35

. You

12:37

know what we do ?

12:38

we hum a lot , so I wonder

12:40

and chanting and all kinds of stuff , right

12:42

, right , absolutely kinds

12:46

of stuff , right , right , absolutely .

12:46

I wonder if it has a lot to do with that , because there's so much research and there are

12:48

so much study , so many studies in our field talking about uh

12:51

, humming , how beneficial is your overall

12:53

health ? Oh , that's fascinating

12:55

. I mean release of nitric oxide .

13:01

That's creating a vibration in

13:03

your mouth .

13:04

It's similar in your nose and so very

13:06

important . If you were doing whole body vibration there

13:08

, I wonder if you keep your tongue up in your palate

13:11

and you actually are getting that vibration in

13:13

your nose , if you will mimic humming

13:15

well renata , guess what .

13:17

So when you're on the right kind of plate and

13:20

you try to speak or

13:22

, let's say , sing , you have instant

13:24

vibrato . Yes

13:27

, the whole area is vibrating

13:30

because that's a stronger

13:32

vibration and some of my machines have two

13:34

settings so you can start really slow which

13:36

is good for people who need that and

13:38

build on the higher setting , and the other

13:40

machine has that higher setting . The

13:43

vibration travels all the way through

13:45

your whole body your head is vibrating , your eyeballs

13:48

are vibrating and your tongue and your whole

13:50

interior system . So

13:53

when you sing or speak , instant

13:56

vibrato that is so interesting

13:58

.

13:59

Uh , some other ways that we

14:01

can relate whole body vibration to

14:03

what we do with myofunctional

14:06

therapy . Of course we're working with

14:08

orophacial

14:11

muscles and most of them

14:13

are lower tone , but

14:16

you can't just work here and ignore the whole

14:18

body , right ? It's one person and

14:20

many , many of our patients do have whole

14:22

body low tone . I'm

14:25

just thinking about the benefits of

14:27

having a myofunctional

14:29

therapy patient use whole

14:31

body vibration . How can that affect

14:33

the whole muscle , all

14:35

the muscles in their body ?

14:36

You know , renata . Okay , so whole

14:39

body vibration became famous

14:41

because of the workout effect initially

14:43

and the bone density , because it's

14:45

increasing bone density , sending signals to

14:47

help . But anyway , so

14:50

it's very famous for this particular

14:53

thing that 10 minutes

14:55

working out on a machine , using

14:57

the right system , will give you the

14:59

benefits of an hour of conventional

15:02

weight training . Okay

15:04

, it intensifies any kind of

15:06

workout that you're doing . So if

15:08

you have and I think you do have

15:10

like exercises people should

15:12

do to help their

15:14

uh , oral , facial muscles

15:17

, whatever , yeah , um , doing

15:19

them on your vibration machine is going

15:21

to make them much more effective . You

15:24

are going to get the results faster

15:26

, more intensely . Yes , and

15:28

it's not like it exhausts you , because

15:31

you're also increasing human

15:33

growth hormone , which helps you regenerate

15:36

faster , and somehow it I

15:38

mean honestly like if you're doing a squat and

15:41

in a position where your muscles have to hold

15:43

your body weight , it can be tiring after

15:45

just 30 , position where your muscles have to hold

15:47

your body weight . It can be tiring after just 30 , 30 seconds , but I don't think it'd

15:49

be quite the same with your like doing mouth exercises

15:52

, because your tongue doesn't weigh a whole lot and I

15:55

don't think that you run into a huge problem .

15:57

No , and the facial muscles

15:59

, the way that the muscle fibers

16:01

of the orophageal complex are they're different

16:03

than muscle fibers from the rest

16:05

of your body that they can handle a

16:08

lot more . I mean , we're speaking all day long , we're

16:10

eating , we're , you know , we're moving these muscles

16:12

, so we can handle fatigue a

16:14

lot more than the rest of our

16:16

body .

16:18

Really interesting point actually is

16:20

they talk about how , with vibration

16:22

, that you very rapidly

16:25

will get greater

16:28

activation of muscle fibers . Like

16:30

, more muscle fibers will activate

16:32

when you tell your muscles to do something . And the reason

16:34

is because when you're vibrating

16:37

, every muscle

16:39

fiber and every neuron in your body

16:41

is activated . So normally , let's

16:44

say , you're doing a squat , only like

16:46

50% of your muscle fibers in your legs

16:48

are activated and

16:50

uh , whereas with the vibration

16:52

, a hundred percent of them and all your

16:54

neurons are going to fire , which which

16:57

, uh , leads them to sort of grow and

16:59

make more connections to more muscle

17:01

fibers so that when you um

17:05

, you know , purposely activate

17:08

your muscles , they will respond

17:10

greater . And that happens within three weeks

17:13

. So people athletes will notice

17:15

that they get a bump

17:17

in their strength , one

17:20

right away , because you're getting increased

17:22

hormones and energy

17:24

, and that can be a very big bump right away

17:26

. But also later on your neurons

17:29

are growing and connecting and activating

17:32

more muscle fibers when you call on your muscles

17:34

to work .

17:34

Oh , my goodness , well I'm going down

17:37

the line . Somebody recently asked over here if he

17:39

helps you lose weight , so you mentioned that a little

17:41

bit , how it could benefit

17:43

somebody looking for that , let's

17:47

see . Oh

17:50

, I have a great question . Can this be used

17:52

for dogs ? I have a 60 pound

17:54

dog that has hip issues

17:56

. Can he benefit ?

17:59

Absolutely Whole

18:02

body . Vibration is phenomenal , first

18:04

of all for arthritis and all kinds of joint problems

18:06

and use properly , pain levels can

18:08

drop and inflammation levels can drop

18:11

, sometimes very quickly . So I see that

18:13

with people all the time and I do see it with animals

18:15

. When people put them on there , you

18:17

can get that it's pretty

18:20

much the same thing and in fact actually

18:22

they make these massive , huge plates

18:24

which probably cost a total mint for

18:26

horses , race horses . They

18:28

are using that like they sink it in the ground

18:31

, they have the horse walk over it and

18:33

and stand on there the race horses and

18:35

they get physical therapy and muscle strengthening

18:38

and joint problems healing and uh

18:40

yeah , so absolutely it's the same thing for

18:42

the dogs as it is with people . That

18:44

is fantastic and some

18:47

animals love it . I

18:49

have pictures People have sent me pictures of like there

18:51

are three cats twining around

18:53

on them while they're standing on the vibration plate

18:56

in their pajamas . Wow

18:58

, oh my God . Another one said her

19:00

cat wakes her up in the morning because he wants to do

19:02

his vibration .

19:04

That is so interesting . Oh , my

19:06

goodness , let me see we have some more questions over

19:08

here . Those are already answered . What

19:10

is the minimal age to ?

19:12

use . Ok , good

19:14

question . So

19:17

yesterday , a couple of days ago , somebody was

19:19

just emailing me or called

19:21

me on the phone . They were all thrilled that their two

19:23

year old loves the vibration . So

19:26

I usually tell people to be a little bit

19:28

, you know , cautious and careful with

19:30

kids . Usually kids

19:32

love vibration . They don't have like

19:34

you know . Occasionally you get an adult who gets

19:36

on there and it's different . Suddenly your

19:39

head's vibrating Right and they'll be like oh , what

19:41

is that ? I don't like it . You know what is that ? Strange

19:43

, weird thing . But kids , they just start laughing

19:45

hysterically .

19:48

They're just like whoa , what is that ? I love it and

19:50

I love it .

19:51

So little kids . I

19:53

would recommend start with holding

19:55

them in your arms , so

19:58

you're a big buffer and they don't get too much , especially like infants . For sure , hold them

20:00

in your arms , they'll hardly get anything , and

20:04

start with a really low setting . See how they respond

20:06

. There's nothing intrinsically bad about

20:08

it , but , you know , just be careful . I

20:10

wouldn't put an infant directly on

20:13

the plate . That would very , very

20:15

good . How about ?

20:16

sitting down . Can you sit down on the plate safely ? Oh , absolutely

20:18

.

20:18

Again the down Can you sit down on the plate safely ? Oh , absolutely , again

20:20

, the right kind of plate . Always using the right

20:22

kind . But yeah

20:24

, absolutely Sitting on it is fine

20:27

. A lot of people do and a lot of exercises

20:29

are , because I have a poster

20:31

with you can . There's over 50 different

20:33

exercise positions that'll target

20:35

different muscle groups In order to get like the workout

20:38

. You want'll target different muscle groups In order to get like the workout . You want to target

20:40

different muscle groups by changing your position

20:42

on the machine right so to

20:44

do legs . There's like variations of squats

20:47

and abdominal

20:50

muscles . You're often sort of sitting in a V shape

20:52

with your butt on the plate and you're

20:54

holding your body in that V shape . That's a

20:56

big abdominal workout . You

20:58

can do lots of arm exercises where your hands

21:01

are on the plate and your feet are off

21:03

it like a pushup right . And it's all

21:05

pretty intense . On a higher

21:07

setting you

21:09

do get strong , faster , and

21:12

what's it going to say something ? Oh , there's like

21:14

a number of reasons why it's so

21:16

intense as a workout . Oh , there's like a number of reasons why it's so intense as a workout

21:18

. One 100% of your muscle fibers are firing

21:20

. Two they're firing at

21:22

the same rate . The machine is vibrating , and what I recommend

21:25

is a machine that runs 26

21:27

to 45 or somewhere

21:29

you

21:33

want to build up to being around 30 to 35 hertz . So that

21:35

means there's like two to three thousand

21:37

little tiny reps in a minute

21:39

, right , but

21:44

reps increase it and they're small but it adds up for sure . And then also the other reason it's

21:46

so intense is because there's sort of physics

21:49

equations that prove

21:51

. There's physics thing

21:53

that shows that you're holding two

21:56

to three times because of gravity and

21:59

acceleration . You end up holding

22:01

two to three times your body weight against

22:04

the vibration . Wow , so

22:06

your muscles , whatever muscles you've targeted

22:09

to hold your body weight like a squat , your legs

22:11

are holding two to three times your body weight

22:13

against the vibration . Like , think of it for a

22:15

quick visual . Think of a guy with a jackhammer

22:17

and the arm muscles . They have hard to hold weight

22:19

against vibration . Like , think of it for a quick visual . Think of a guy with a jackhammer

22:21

and the arm muscles . They have Hard work to hold weight against vibration

22:23

. Now , don't worry , these machines are way

22:25

smoother than a jackhammer , you're not going to feel like

22:28

you're on a jackhammer . You're a purring

22:30

cat , very happy Purring cat .

22:32

I love that . Let's

22:34

see how . Do you use it ? How

22:38

, and are there certain settings

22:40

that provide different benefits ?

22:42

Yes , Well , below

22:45

30 to 35 hertz is

22:47

sort of warming up , stretching

22:50

, getting used to

22:52

the machine , like building up . Like I recommend

22:54

, start lower . Do your workout

22:56

, you know , every day , increasing in

22:59

a sort of slow manner . 30

23:02

to 35 is considered the

23:04

best , most effective for muscle

23:06

and bone . Like your muscles

23:08

respond best to that speed

23:11

of vibration , of tensing and relaxing

23:13

syncing

23:23

. Above 35 hertz you're starting to get

23:25

into better for your neurological , like optimizing for neurological and energy field

23:28

. So the higher speeds can be really

23:30

great for your neurological

23:33

system and your energy field

23:35

. And actually there's some fascinating

23:37

research about really high frequency vibration

23:40

and diseases

23:43

like Alzheimer's

23:45

and Parkinson's . So

23:47

there's a huge field

23:50

opening up here of what vibration

23:52

can do for you .

23:53

Do you have any more info

23:55

on Alzheimer's

23:58

, how it can be beneficial ?

24:04

I don't think it's . Certainly

24:06

there's research on how it can help

24:08

. I

24:11

don't know if there's a lot of vibration

24:14

. What we've seen is that exercise

24:17

. It's very well proven that exercise

24:20

is basically the best thing you can do for

24:22

your brain because , it creates a

24:24

massive stimulation of your brain

24:26

when you're running or whatever . Huge

24:29

surge of neurological signals going

24:31

into your brain , lighting your brain up , stimulating

24:33

it . And vibration is

24:35

exercise on steroids and

24:38

much bigger stimulation

24:40

of your brain because every neuron

24:42

in your body is firing at

24:44

the rate it's vibrating which is 20 to 50

24:46

times per second Massive

24:49

neurological stimulation and your brain

24:51

responds well to that , as long as it's sort

24:53

of a very coherent message

24:56

into your brain . So

24:59

there is research

25:01

showing also that synchronizing

25:04

brain waves can

25:06

be very beneficial for your brain and help

25:08

feel things and help your your

25:11

thought processes and creativity

25:13

and memory and all of that . So I really

25:15

promote using a kind of vibration

25:18

that is synchronizing your brainwaves

25:20

. I think that's very

25:22

important yeah .

25:24

That goes right into the next question . The reason

25:26

why I mentioned Alzheimer's is because the

25:29

lack of deep sleep could potentially

25:32

cause Alzheimer's disease , and

25:34

it does say over here that

25:37

whole body vibration raises serotonin

25:39

levels in the brain , improving mood and sleep

25:41

. How else is it related to sleep

25:43

?

25:44

Oh yeah , that's a big one because it

25:46

does raise serotonin levels

25:48

, which is your major antidepressant neurotransmitter

25:52

, natural neurotransmitter . It's the one that all

25:55

the antidepressant drugs target . So

25:57

that's

25:59

a huge benefit for both during the day

26:01

when you're awake , and when you're trying to

26:03

sleep . So it's

26:07

great for that and you

26:09

know it's very relaxing and it helps you

26:11

be in a more calm down and be both

26:13

activate , stimulate and calm

26:15

down the right kind of vibration , you know , because

26:17

it is definitely lighting up your brain and

26:20

helping release neurotransmitters that give

26:22

you energy and help

26:24

you think , your brain think . But

26:26

it can sort

26:29

of help move you into a

26:31

more meditative state , a slower

26:33

brainwave state that

26:36

is more conducive for falling

26:38

asleep , and I had . I remember

26:40

I had a person send

26:43

me an email about how she got her machine

26:46

and she just loved it . She'd do it at night

26:48

and it was like better than

26:50

a sauna and better than like what was

26:52

it A ? Hot tub and a glass of wine or similar

26:54

to a hot tub and a glass of wine oh , my

26:56

goodness . That's all I will say

26:58

, though you know some people

27:00

, you , you want to kind of experiment a little

27:03

bit with it and how you react to it

27:05

because , like I said , it can

27:07

be very , very stimulating . And I had another

27:09

guy who I used to do uh

27:11

classes , adult

27:13

education classes , and we go to the school and I had

27:15

this like 45 year old , maybe 50 year

27:17

old guy and he would get on the machine

27:19

for five minutes it's like seven o'clock at night and

27:21

then he'd , honestly , he would be running

27:24

around circles in the in

27:26

the classroom going oh my god , it's like

27:28

I just did drugs that's

27:34

so funny .

27:34

Somebody said it pretty hilarious we got the vibration

27:37

plate to activate

27:39

the vagus nerve for calming the nervous system . When

27:42

my nine-year-old friend came over , they

27:44

all ran

27:46

to the vibration machine . They all

27:48

loved it . Our pit bull too . There

27:53

you go , thank you guys .

27:54

Let's see what else that's

27:56

cool .

27:57

Oh , this is a great question . Thank you , guys . Let's see

27:59

what else . That's cool . Oh , this is a great question .

28:06

Does . A rebounder or a trampoline works about the same way

28:08

as these vibration plates . Okay , there's some similarities

28:10

and you know it is a vibration but it's much

28:12

slower . So when you're

28:14

looking for that higher intensity

28:17

, the vibration is going to be much

28:19

more intense on a lot of levels . But

28:22

rebounders are great and

28:24

especially sort of used together . Rebounder

28:27

as sort of the aerobic exercise

28:29

is fantastic and

28:39

then the vibration because it's working on .

28:40

It's so intense a vibration and you get a different effect .

28:42

Wow , uh , can you do it daily ? Oh

28:44

, absolutely , you should do it daily . Yes

28:46

, absolutely perfect .

28:48

Are there any contraindications

28:50

?

28:51

that depends again on the machine a little

28:54

bit , but yes , absolutely so

28:56

. One of the there's

28:59

a kind of vibration called low intensity

29:01

vibration and it is the same

29:03

vertical vibration , but the amplitude

29:05

is so tiny that

29:07

you really only feel it in your feet when you're

29:09

standing on the machine . It is

29:11

super , super gentle , it can run

29:13

faster and it can be therapeutic

29:16

for helping a number of quite

29:18

a lot of things help lower pain

29:20

and inflammation and have effects throughout

29:22

your body because you're it is sending signals

29:24

to your brain and your energy field and affecting

29:26

hormones and neurotransmitters , etc . But

29:29

uh , it has almost no contraindications

29:32

because it's so extremely gentle . On

29:34

the other hand , higher

29:39

amplitude and more

29:41

powerful machines , there are

29:43

quite a number of things you should be

29:46

very careful with and some that you shouldn't

29:48

do it at all . So

29:50

examples of things you should not do a

29:52

stronger vibration with would be acute

29:54

migraines like that bad

29:57

of migraines really tiny ones , small

30:00

, occasional , controlled you

30:03

can probably do really gentle , and it might

30:05

help , because there's a whole bunch of things actually that

30:07

if you do it right

30:09

it might be able to help . But you got to do it carefully

30:11

. And I call those relative contraindications

30:13

you can find a list of them on my website

30:16

and in my books and

30:18

then there's absolute contraindications . So

30:20

broken bones , well

30:23

, obvious . Pregnancy

30:25

, pregnancy Okay

30:28

, it's listed typically

30:30

as don't do it , but that's in

30:32

a way , more of a legal issue because , you

30:35

want to be so careful with it . There's no

30:37

reason . It's a problem for people who

30:39

are having a healthy pregnancy and

30:42

, interestingly , there was some research

30:44

about how it could help you conceive

30:46

, increase um pregnancy

30:49

, getting pregnant chances . So

30:51

for people who are having problems , what

30:55

else ?

30:56

we have a joint blade . Oh

30:58

, tell me about vertigo .

30:59

Don't use it with vertigo , that's

31:01

a big contraindication .

31:04

Is it suggested to stand on

31:06

it in a very relaxed state

31:08

or should one have

31:10

muscles activated similar to tensing muscles

31:13

during resistance exercises

31:15

?

31:16

Depends on what you're trying to achieve . If

31:18

you want the workout effect , yeah , you should

31:20

be working out and having tight

31:23

muscles , right , activated muscles

31:25

. If you are trying to de-stress

31:28

or work

31:30

on brain issues , there's nothing

31:33

wrong at all , even bone density . Honestly

31:35

, just stand up straight on the machine

31:37

and in fact , just standing up straight

31:39

is a great way to help

31:41

the bone density , because then the

31:44

vibration will travel

31:46

through your skeletal

31:50

system more effectively . And if you

31:52

bend your knees , if you are doing like a

31:55

squat right , your legs are working

31:57

like shock absorbers

31:59

and the vibration won't really

32:01

get past your , say , hips

32:03

and you want

32:06

it in your back . If you're worried about bone density

32:08

, because it is , the vibration is

32:10

fantastic for bone density for a number

32:12

of reasons . Oh , my God , you want to hear something

32:14

really cool about like losing

32:16

weight and building bone . So

32:18

they have actually shown research

32:20

now where it's

32:23

causing stem cells in

32:25

your bones right To turn

32:28

into , um , bone

32:31

building cells . Because stem cells

32:33

are they . They can grow into any

32:35

. they're like the magic cell that can go anywhere and become

32:38

anything yeah and with vibration

32:40

your body is guided to turn those stem

32:43

cells into bone building cells

32:45

instead of into fat

32:47

cells . Wow , so

32:49

it's like a double whammy , wow . And

32:52

you get increased levels of stem

32:54

cells by huge amounts . They did

32:56

military did this research study . They

32:59

showed that vibration

33:01

alone they were comparing sort

33:04

of vibration and exercise and effects on stem

33:06

cells and vibration though

33:08

exercise alone , you got a 20%

33:11

increase in circulating stem cells

33:13

going all around in your body to heal

33:15

your body . And vibration

33:18

alone you've got a 30% increase

33:20

in stem cells going all over your body , even

33:22

if you just stood there . Wow . And

33:24

exercise

33:26

plus vibration , which is what is recommended

33:29

for almost everything you know you want to lose

33:31

weight exercise as well as vibrate you want to . Whatever

33:33

40%

33:35

increase in circulating stem

33:37

cells going all over your body . Plus , you got

33:39

your human growth hormone going up , so

33:42

the healing properties are just

33:44

enormous .

33:46

Oh my gosh . Well , I know everybody's

33:48

asking right now how do I get one

33:50

and where do I get one , and do we have a

33:52

discount code ?

33:54

Yes , we do . You have your

33:56

own discount code so all of

33:58

your people can get a special

34:00

discount when they go to my website and

34:02

I believe you're going to be posting my website

34:05

and the discount , which will

34:07

be my 010

34:09

, because it's a 10% off the machines

34:11

that selected machines

34:13

, so you

34:16

can . There's a number of different machines on my website

34:18

and I

34:20

particularly was focusing on trying to bring

34:23

people the best vibration for

34:25

a reasonable price that they could afford . You

34:27

know a good price

34:29

that ? Because I want to get everybody in

34:31

the whole world vibrating .

34:33

Yeah , and

34:35

Becky , I did a lot of research . And

34:38

, becky , I did a lot of research . I

34:44

spent hours and hours and hours researching everything that I could get my hands on about vibration

34:46

before I decided to purchase one . And you're absolutely

34:48

right , you are so far off

34:51

any of the other companies

34:53

or competitors out there because

34:56

not only the quality , the price

34:58

and the type of vibration out

35:01

of this world . So if anybody's interested , I will

35:04

post on stories , I'll post in the comments

35:06

here . You guys

35:08

just keep an eye out , but can you say your website

35:10

for those who are listening ?

35:13

It's BC

35:15

from my initials , that's Becky Chambers

35:17

, so BC . And then two words

35:20

vibrant health , like your body , b

35:22

, c , vibrant healthcom . And

35:25

I particularly recommend two

35:27

machines the ultimate vibe , which

35:29

is a new one I have , and it's the one that has a

35:31

low power and a high power and

35:34

it's very affordable . A

35:36

small light , it's just a great machine

35:38

. And the power 1000

35:40

, which is a big favorite and it's very affordable . Small light , it's just a great

35:42

machine . And the Power 1000 , which is a big favorite for many years . People

35:44

love that machine . So

35:46

there are two great

35:49

great options for you there .

35:50

Perfect , and

35:53

that's the one that I have . Oh , we have

35:55

. Would it help somehow with

35:58

bilateral acute facial

36:00

palsy ? So if somebody has completely lost

36:02

, that's usually nerve damage . If

36:05

somebody lost completely movement

36:08

, if it's a motor nerve or sensory

36:10

of the side , one

36:12

side of the face , do you have any ?

36:15

experience with .

36:23

I don't have experience with that , I can say I don't know much about that .

36:24

it is bilateral both sides . Yeah , I do know that

36:26

. Um , you know they've done research with stroke

36:28

victims . It has . It helps

36:31

regenerate brain and they

36:33

can get good results with , uh , people

36:35

with like stroke victims . Um , so

36:39

it is such a big stimulation

36:41

of your nervous system and without any effort

36:43

it is going to go through all

36:45

areas stimulating the nerves

36:47

and the muscles in the that

36:50

area , which is what your body responds

36:52

to stimulation . That's

36:54

a signal to use the that

36:56

system and it responds typically

36:58

by trying to use it and regenerate . Let

37:00

me grow so maybe .

37:03

Yes , that would be interesting . I'd love to do some research

37:05

on that . Um , somebody

37:08

, we talked already a little bit about lymph drainage

37:10

. Um , this is just before

37:12

the vibration plate . What lymph drainage do you

37:14

suggest before the vibration plate ? The second

37:16

question related to that

37:18

is should you massage lymph

37:21

nodes first for better results

37:23

with lymph drainage ?

37:25

You don't really need to do that at all . No , you

37:28

don't have to do any lymph drainage before you

37:30

get on the plate . You're going to get a massive dose

37:32

of lymph drainage on your plate . What

37:34

I might recommend is drinking

37:36

water . You know things to

37:38

help with detox overload

37:41

because you might get more lymph drainage

37:43

than you really were expecting . That's

37:46

all prepared for . So I

37:49

do have a little section in my books generally

37:51

about what to do if you did too much detoxing

37:53

. So you know drinking water resting . There's

37:56

some supplements you can take to help absorb toxins

37:58

in your body and get you past that . And

38:00

then generally you want to slow down . Then

38:02

the next time , you know , rest up , get feeling

38:05

better .

38:05

And when you go back .

38:06

Don't think quite so much .

38:07

Perfect , we mentioned this

38:09

earlier . Also , can you explain what

38:13

are the effects that this has on muscle

38:15

and fascia and how you help sleep

38:17

disordered breathing patients ? We

38:20

talked a little bit about this before just me , and

38:22

you and you mentioned muscle

38:24

, but how about fascia ?

38:26

So

38:28

I

38:33

think people use vibration

38:35

for stretching a great deal and

38:38

it is incredibly effective for

38:41

stretching , which I think would be related

38:43

right movement and greater

38:45

, you know , ability in stretches

38:47

and releasing a tight muscles and tight

39:01

areas very

39:03

quickly and powerfully . It's . It's remarkable

39:06

how powerful it is on that level . It's

39:08

like a vibration is amazing

39:11

, because it is the only thing out there actually

39:13

that both strengthens you , Cause it's's both remember

39:16

it's tensing and relaxing

39:19

um 20 to 50 times per

39:21

second . Wow , so it's

39:23

both intensely strengthening and

39:26

relaxing and there's

39:28

no other therapy that does . That is what I've read that

39:30

is so cool , although I

39:32

just want to say that vibration

39:34

works incredibly well along

39:37

with all kinds of other

39:39

natural health approaches . So I'm

39:41

not saying don't do anything , just do vibration

39:43

. No , no , no , no . Add it in

39:45

to what you're already doing and be sure to do like

39:48

nutrition and exercise

39:50

, special exercises to target certain

39:53

areas , and

39:55

I highly recommend the

39:57

homeopathy energy work . That

40:00

can really help things like

40:02

Bell's palsy , sleep

40:04

apnea , a number of

40:06

, lots of things . Homeopathy is like the

40:09

hidden jewel of healing

40:11

that is so unknown but incredibly

40:14

powerful .

40:14

I 100% agree . And the way that

40:16

I can relate to sleep disorder , breathing

40:19

, I feel like a lot of these . I'm

40:21

just going to focus on children , but a lot of these children

40:23

, you know , whenever you cannot sleep well , whenever

40:25

you're not breathing well , increases cortisol

40:28

levels and we all know that these kids with increased

40:30

cortisol , they're running all over the place , so

40:32

their nervous system is dysregulated

40:35

. And if you guys saw , when I posted

40:37

a video of Benny the first time he got

40:39

up on the plate , I couldn't

40:42

believe it because all of a sudden his eyes

40:44

just went focused and he

40:46

was feeling his body and he's

40:48

like what is this ? And we're trying

40:51

to talk to him and he's like don't

40:53

talk to me . Right now I'm enjoying this , I'm trying

40:55

to figure out what it is . It

40:58

was such an interesting reaction . I'm so excited that I got it on video

41:00

. I'll post it on today if you

41:02

guys want to see it so

41:05

you have to skip in so many ways . Oh , my goodness

41:07

, becky , I know that we could stay over here one

41:09

more hour talking about everything

41:11

whole body vibration . I just I love your energy

41:14

and I love all the work that you're doing

41:16

to help people fight inflammation

41:18

and find a healthier way of being

41:21

, so thank you for all of your work . Now

41:23

I know you have several books . Can you

41:25

talk about your books ?

41:28

Okay , yeah , I got . The first one I did

41:30

was whole body vibration the future of good

41:32

health , and it just came out with a

41:34

second edition which is all updated . I recommend

41:36

that one particularly

41:38

. And then I have

41:41

two more second

41:43

editions coming out . One is for this very

41:46

popular book called whole body vibration for seniors

41:48

. So you

41:50

know , vibration is phenomenal for across

41:53

the board , from really young people like you're

41:55

working with to it's fantastic

41:58

for older people , addresses all kinds of issues

42:00

that they're typically running into inflammation

42:02

, bone density , weight gain

42:05

. You know just everything . And

42:07

then I wrote three

42:10

other books to address sort of

42:12

specific areas that are really important . One

42:15

is whole body vibration for calming

42:17

inflammation . So

42:19

inflammation is affecting everything and

42:22

all chronic health problems , and there's

42:24

so much vibration itself

42:26

lowers inflammation . They've

42:28

showed all kinds of research about that

42:31

and particularly interesting

42:33

is they like showing that it helps balance

42:35

your gut flora . It

42:54

is . It's amazing , I am crazy , right

42:56

, uh , so

42:59

, and then in that book I just I

43:05

give you all kinds of helpful on lowering inflammation , um , and then there's

43:07

a whole body vibration for mental health

43:10

. Um , and

43:12

it is fabulous for mental health and mental

43:14

health . This is sort of the connection with the energy

43:16

your mental health is driving your energy

43:18

, and your mental health is very powerfully

43:21

affecting your whole physical body

43:23

as well as you know , on just

43:25

your life , your quality of life

43:27

. It's so huge and , trust

43:29

me , I know I had a major

43:32

chronic clinical depression

43:34

for 30 years Was it Wow

43:37

. Unbelievable . I was like , oh a

43:39

mess . Well , it wasn't just physically ill

43:41

, I was mentally a disaster and

43:43

I am a . I'm great . I've been off of all the

43:46

drugs and everything for 20 years or

43:48

something now . Uh , not

43:50

a problem . That's incredible .

43:52

I do want to to uh . Today

43:54

I spoke to a functional

43:56

medicine doctor , dr Ron . He's

43:58

freaking incredible . He's

44:01

from Houston and we were talking about

44:03

spirituality and emotion

44:05

and how important it is . You know

44:07

, we have so many of these patients come to us

44:10

, especially young women who

44:12

have tried so many things

44:14

, and they just feel awful . You

44:16

know , physically

44:18

, if you look at them clinically , they look

44:21

fine but they don't feel good and

44:23

they have just tried so many things

44:25

. Fibromyalgia is another thing

44:27

and I

44:29

have heard that the pain that these people

44:32

feel is so intense because

44:34

it's not muscle pain , it's fascia pain

44:36

and

44:39

the interesting thing about fascia pain is that fascia holds emotion

44:41

. So that goes back

44:43

to and the vibration

44:45

. How calming that is to the body .

44:46

I wonder if it releases .

44:48

Uh , like you said , serotonin , it right

44:50

, and and just those feel

44:53

good hormones really

44:55

interestingly , people who you know , some people

44:57

can feel energy .

44:59

Yep , I , I'm not one of those lucky

45:01

I am but , yeah , fantastic

45:04

. So some people can feel their chakras spinning

45:06

, they can feel the energy going going through

45:08

their energy meridians and usually when

45:10

they stand on a vibration plate

45:12

they'll be like , oh whoa , I can

45:14

feel my chakra spinning and I can feel

45:16

this . Oh , the energy's going over here to my

45:18

shoulder injury I had years ago and

45:20

it is

45:23

absolutely working on an

45:25

energy level . This is a really interesting thing

45:27

too about how does that happen so

45:29

fascinating ? It's because the

45:31

theory . It's a theory , okay , but it makes sense . So

45:33

we're all crystals , we're liquid crystals

45:35

, highly organized molecular

45:38

structures , right , yeah , no

45:40

argument there . But all

45:43

crystals have a physical

45:45

property and any physicist or engineer

45:47

can tell you this . All crystals have

45:49

an ability to turn mechanical

45:52

vibration which is what a vibration plate

45:54

is into electromagnetic

45:56

energy . That's how an LED screen

45:59

works , apparently . So when you stand

46:01

on a vibration plate , your

46:04

body is instantly turning

46:06

that mechanical vibration into the

46:09

electromagnetic energy frequencies that

46:11

you need . Wow , that's

46:13

why it's shooting around to your particular

46:15

areas that you need it . Wow , that's why it's shooting

46:17

around to your particular areas that you need it .

46:18

Oh , my God , isn't that incredible .

46:20

It is absolutely .

46:22

I'm so in love with this and thank you , thank you again for everything

46:24

you're doing for this field . Thanks for

46:27

hanging out with us today and trying to figure

46:29

out as we do our first podcast

46:31

episode of the Beauty of the Week , so

46:34

thank you everyone . All

46:38

of Becca's information is going to also be on the show notes , so

46:40

look for that . And thank you , becky

46:42

, I cannot wait to keep working with you and learning

46:44

more from you .

46:46
