Vibalance 2.0
is designed, fundamentally, for exercises conducted standing on
one or two legs, although exercises can also be performed with the upper extre-
mities by placing the hands upon the vibratory platform.
In all exercises it is recommended to not reach the maximum extension of the
knees or arms in order to avoid the discomfort that may be produced by vibra-
tory stimulus when it reaches the head.
The total time of exposure to vibratory stimulation in one single session should
not exceed 20 mins, regardless of the amplitude and frequency selected. Excee-
ding this time limit could be damaging to one’s health.

Vibalance 2.0
allows one to adjust various levels of stability. Maximum stabili-
ty is reached when the four stabilizers are placed around the perimeter of the
machine´s base and minimum stability when all the stabilizers are removed. In
all conditions in which all stabilizers are not used the user should mount the
machine knowing that the vibratory plate will incline until it comes into contact
with the anti-impact hoop at the base of the platform. It is recommended, at
least during the first exercises, to mount the vibratory plate by putting one foot
near the lateral edge of the vibratory plate and pressing until it is in contact with
the base itself. Then the user should proceed to put the other foot on the vibra-
tory platform at the same distance from the lateral edge of the vibratory plate,
but on the opposite side following the reference marks
(Figure 4).
