Benefits of Power Plate Therapy
Increase Calorie Burn
The high frequency vibrations can boost calorie expenditure by up to 5%, aiding in weight loss and far reduction.
Enhance Muscle Activation
Power Plate's Precision Wave Technology stimulates muscles up to 50 times per second, leading to increased muscles fiber engagement compared to traditional workouts.
Increases Bone Density
Regular use of Power Plate can help increase bone mineral density, making it beneficial for individuals at risk of osteoporosis.
Boost Metabolism
Consistent use of Power Plate's Vibration therapy can boost your resting metabolism, allowing you to burn more calories even at rest.
Enhances Circulation
The micro-vibrations enhance blood flow, promoting better oxygen and nutrient delivery to cells, which can also help decrease the appearance of cellulite.
Burn Fat Faster
Power Plate’s whole-body vibration activates the body’s natural reflexes, engaging significantly more muscle fibres than traditional exercise alone. This increased muscular activation raises energy expenditure and can elevate resting metabolic rate – supporting fat loss not just during a session, but long after it ends.
A systematic review of 13 studies found that whole-body vibration (WBV) therapy, particularly when combined with diet and exercise, significantly reduced both body fat percentage and absolute fat mass in overweight and obese individuals. As such, Power Plate can be a powerful addition to a sustainable, clinically informed weight management programme.

Tighten Skin
As your muscles contract at high speed, Power Plate promotes increased circulation and lymphatic drainage – two key factors in skin health and firmness.
The vibrations may also help stimulate fibroblast activity, supporting collagen and elastin production. This combination makes Power Plate a non-invasive option for improving skin tone and texture, especially in areas prone to laxity such as the abdomen, thighs, and upper arms.
Build Strength
Power Plate® training uses high-frequency vibrations to trigger rapid, reflexive muscle contractions – up to 30–50 times per second.
This intense neuromuscular stimulation activates more muscle fibres with each movement, improving strength and endurance more efficiently than conventional resistance or bodyweight training.
Clinical studies support these outcomes: research involving older adults found that whole-body vibration (WBV) significantly improved muscle strength, balance, and mobility, making it especially effective for those recovering from injury, training athletically, or managing age-related muscle loss (sarcopenia).
Ref: Bogaerts, A., Delecluse, C., Claessens, A. L., Coudyzer, W., Boonen, S., & Verschueren, S. M. (2007). Impact of whole-body vibration training versus fitness training on muscle strength and muscle mass in older men: a 1-year randomized controlled trial. The Journals of Gerontology Series A: Biological Sciences and Medical Sciences, 62(6), 630–635. https://doi.org/10.1093/gerona/62.6.630
Enhance Bone Density
Power Plate® training doesn’t just strengthen muscles, it also plays a valuable role in protecting your bones. The gentle vibrations from the platform create a type of mechanical stimulation that encourages your bones to stay strong and adapt to movement. This is especially important for people at risk of low bone density, such as those with osteopenia or osteoporosis.
Studies have shown promising results: one clinical trial found that women who used whole-body vibration regularly increased their bone density by 4.3%, while a similar group who didn’t train actually lost 1.9% over the same period. When added to a regular weight-bearing routine, Power Plate offers a safe, low-impact way to support long-term bone strength and reduce the risk of fractures.

Improve Circulation
Power Plate® training helps improve circulation by stimulating blood flow and enhancing lymphatic drainage. This promotes faster nutrient delivery, reduces inflammation, and supports recovery, making it particularly beneficial after exercise.
It can also help ease fluid retention and support vascular health in those with poor circulation. Research from Loma Linda University found that massage exercises using Power Plate® significantly increased skin blood flow, reinforcing its potential to boost circulation and overall tissue wellbeing.

Not at all. While the Power Plate® is a powerful tool for enhancing workouts, its benefits extend far beyond traditional exercise. Its gentle, low-impact vibrations make it ideal for all ages and fitness levels, including those recovering from injury, managing chronic conditions, or simply seeking to improve circulation, mobility, and overall well-being.
From athletes to active agers, busy professionals to those new to movement, the Power Plate® provides a safe, effective, and time-efficient way to support your body – whether you're training, rehabilitating, or simply recharging.
The Power Plate® is an advanced whole-body vibration platform that uses PrecisionWave™ Technology to deliver multidirectional (Tri-Planar) vibrations. These gentle yet powerful movements stimulate muscles, improve circulation, and activate the body at a deeper, cellular level – helping you achieve better results in less time.
Power Plate is clinically shown to help:
- Increase muscle activation and strength
- Improve circulation and lymphatic drainage
- Enhance flexibility and joint mobility
- Support weight loss and fat metabolism
- Boost bone density
- Improve balance, posture, and core strength
- Aid recovery and reduce soreness
- Tighten and tone skin
Yes – when used under professional supervision, Power Plate can be an excellent tool for rehabilitation and therapeutic use.
It’s often recommended by physiotherapists to support recovery from surgery, injury, or conditions such as arthritis and osteoporosis. However, a consultation is always recommended before starting.
Please reach out to our healthcare professionals for more information.
Sessions usually last 15 to 30 minutes, depending on your goals and programme. Thanks to its efficiency, just a few minutes on the Power Plate can activate more muscles than a much longer traditional workout.
Yes. Power Plate can aid fat metabolism, muscle toning, and cellulite reduction by engaging more muscle fibres and increasing circulation. It’s particularly effective when combined with a healthy lifestyle and guided exercise plan.
Unlike basic vibration platforms, Power Plate uses patented PrecisionWave™ Technology to deliver high-frequency, multi-directional vibrations. This ensures deeper muscle activation, better results, and greater safety. It’s clinically proven and used by top wellness clinics and elite athletes around the world.
