Power Plate®

The Power Plate® oscillating in all three planes creates instability and vibration in the body.

This vibration activates muscle contractions between 25-50 times per second, involving 95% of the muscle fiber. Due to the increase of muscle contractions this type of training can generate more force with ease, enhancing overall performance, improving circulation, reducing soreness, and increasing muscle strength, flexibility and bone density.

Ongoing sessions (60 minutes) which build upon the foundations of the preceding sessions will provide the extra motivation, variety and accountability to help you reach your health, fitness or performance goals.
