•Never put your head or the cervical spine directly on the plate.

•When doing standing exercises always slightly bend the knee joint.

•If you cannot see your toes than your knees are too far forward! Caution; cruciate ligament injuries is possible! You should keep the shin perpendicular as possible to the plate with the thigh tilting slightly backwards.

•Keep the elbows slightly bent while holding the arm rests- which protects the joints!

•Do not lay your chest on the plate (except with a thick protective mat, and only for one or two exercises).

•If the back is laid on the plate, always use a protective mat.

•In the supine position never place the shoulder blade, cervical spine or head directly on the plate.

•Do not go on the vibration plate if you have implants. Exceptions are dental implants, but then do not clench your teeth.

•Completely explain the emergency stop switch.

•Explain to new customers the Start-Stop operation.

•Only the trainer should adjust the amplitude and Hertz of the plate!

•To prevent meniscus injuries, please ensure that your feet are facing forward and parallel.

The following people should not undertake Vibration Training:

•Pregnant women.

•People with pacemakers.

•Patients with cancer or tumours.

•People with artificial joints, screw joints, or plates as a result of surgery.

•People with bone cement, for example to the spinal column.

•Children under 12 years.

•Patients after certain eye surgeries.

Here is a simple introduction exercise before we begin with the main training:

Ask the customer to stand on the plate, with their heels slightly raised and knees bent with their hands on the console.

Let the customer feel the changes in the intensity of the vibration when the weight is shifted from the heel to the ball of the foot.

Ask him or her about their health: “How do you feel?“

Important; to avoid injury to the anterior cruciate ligament you should:

Knees slightly bent, but never with the knees before the tips of the toes. It is better to tilt the thigh slightly backwards while keeping the lower leg perpendicular to the base plate.

In order not to put too much strain on the inner and outer meniscus, ensure that the feet are always parallel and in a forward direction.
