How it works
Through the cutaneous application of selective vibrations, Vibra b and Vibra th are able to improve and solve various beauty pro-blems related to aging and to the conduct of a stressful and seden-tary lifestyle.
Vibra b and Vibra th generate total body positive effects, with na-tural and non-invasive treatments free of contraindications and side effects.
Selective
vibrations
Vibra b and Vibra th are born from decades of experience on focal selective vibrations in the medical secotr. Selective vibra-tion is a NON-invasive stimulation generated by the air, totally physiological, which activates specific cutaneous and muscula-ture nerve receptors that trigger the same reaction in the body as physical activity. 20 minutes of Vibra B treatment is equiva-lent to 2 hours of intense activity in the gym.
Vibration is a sequence of tiny pressure stimuli, which, depen-ding on the parameter used, are "felt" by the different nerve sensors present in the skin and muscles. As soon as the signal reaches the Central Nervous System it is being reprogrammed (motorengram).
Both devices feature the innovative technology of single-chamber flow modulation without air leak (Z.A.L - Zero Air Leak technology) that enables the performance and reduces the noise-
The accessories applied to the patient are designed to make the applications as specific as possible, meeting the needs of both the operator and the customer.
Muscle and receptors - transducers
By selecting the appropriate frequencies, the vibration stimulus can act on specific mechanoreceptors, including: Meissner and Merkel receptors located in the surface layers of the skin; Ruffini and Pacini corpuscles in the deeper layers; the Golgi tendon organs; and the Ia fibres of the neuromuscular spindles.
Afferent fibres
Once the mechanoreceptors are selectively activated, the vibration stimulus travels along type I myelinated large-calibre rapid-conduction fibres. The vibration stimulus is more selective than TENS in activating large-calibre fibres involved in pain modulation at the level of the spine.
Spinal cord
When it reaches the spinal cord, the stimulus, depending on the stimulation parameters selected by the operator, can induce a number of different responses: activation of the spinal gate, evocation of the TVR (Tonic Vibration Reflex) or reciprocal inhibition.
Suprasegmental centres and cortical sensory-motor integration
Vibration can improve the integration between afferent nerve impulses and the motor response at the suprasegmental level thanks to the capacity to vary the frequency and pressure intensity of the stimulus with great precision.
Transmitting a new message to the muscle via an efferent fibre
As a result of alterations induced at a suprasegmental level, vibration is able to improve the motor output during voluntary activation through improved functional organization, altering the order of recruitment of muscle fibres.
