The Power Plate Vibration Platform – Does it Build Bone?

By

I just posted a detailed article on the MelioGuide blog on the Power Plate vibrating platform. The company claims that the Power Plate can increase bone density and on their website refer to a study (completed in 2004) that demonstrates that the product does build bone.

I reviewed the study in detail after several clients and health professionals asked me about the product. I found that the study did not do a fair comparison and believe that the Power Plate people should have encouraged a more balanced study.
