Background

A passive leg exerciser is good for seniors and the elderly when they cannot actively use pedal machines or elliptical machines. Or, they find motorized pedals or chi machines cause too much movement of their knees and legs. Meanwhile, moving legs is important for the elderly to stay healthy and lessen the chances of diseases such as Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) or varicose veins.

For example, data from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) shows that 10 percent of elders between the ages of 70 to 79 suffer from PAD. Furthermore, 25 percent of elders over the age of 80 also suffer from PAD. Meanwhile, PAD can lead to pain, chronic skin ulceration, gangrene and other problems.

Best 3D Vibration Plate Machines

First and foremost, 3D vibration plate massager platform generate two types of movements: oscillations and lateral vibrations. Now, oscillations are two-dimensional vibrations, illustrated by a seesaw, in which the body swings from one side to another around a pivot. On the other hand, lateral vibrations are movements along one axis. For example, a vibration plate that goes up and down or slides back and forth, or slides side to side.
