TurboSonic Whole-Body Vibration Therapy (WBVT) provides a safe and effective way to excite human cells.   Its patented technology accelerates the body's natural healing response, increases cellular oxygen circulation, enhances cellular nutrient uptake, stimulates cellular fluid movement and facilitates cellular waste removal.   The result: cells become more resilient, vibrant, and function together more cohesively as a healthier, more youthful body.  

TurboSonic is the first sonic vibrational therapy system that is whisper quiet, has no motorized parts, and is non-invasive to the body.   Unlike conventional vibration exercise machines utilizing rotary motors, TurboSonic employs a high-performance, acoustic amplifier system and a magnetic voice coil circuit, thus solving the ongoing problems associated with the noise and mechanical abrasion of vibration spin motors.

The multi-faceted health benefits of the TurboSonic can be utilized for a wide range of purposes including exercise, weight management, detoxification and the overall rebalancing and rejuvenation of your entire body.

Up and down vertical movements stimulate the growth plates, improve blood vessel circulation, activate the lymph system and help eliminate cellulite.   Vertical movements also cause the muscle fibers to contract and relax repeatedly, enhancing muscle strength.   Simply standing on the TurboSonic for 10 minutes is the equivalent of a 40 to 90 minute workout.

The TurboSonic can be used by most everyone.   In particular, athletes, overweight people who experience difficulty exercising over extended periods of time, office workers with inadequate levels of physical activity, people who cannot find the time to exercise, and patients requiring rehabilitative therapy stand to benefit most from this unique and comprehensive exercise system.   Even the elderly and disabled can use it.

Qigong (Chi Kung) Masters in Korea were instrumental in the development of the TurboSonic's 10 minute pre-programmed training modes.   These Qigong Masters believe that lower sonic frequencies with lower amplitudes raise a person's vibrational energy (their "Chi" in Oriental medicine).   Followers of Eastern medicine believe that balancing the body's energy meridians is essential for a vibrant and healthier life.

TurboSonic is used widely throughout Korea and Japan, especially by Qigong Masters, Acupuncturists, Physical Therapists, Chiropractors, Orthopedics, Athletic Trainers and Senior Centers as well as by Olympic and top sport athletes.

TurboSonic® - How Does It Work?

The whole body vibration (WBV) theory was originated from the concept of human body movement under Earth's gravity.

Research on WBV began with Russian space training programs in the 60s to combat the effects of the gravity-free environment encountered by astronauts in outer space.   Subsequent studies focused more on enhancing the performance of Soviet athletes.   Through the years, research was also undertaken in other countries such as Italy, Israel, Germany and the United States.  

Although whole body vibration technology has been around for decades, it is only in the past few years that it has become available for medical, sports science and aesthetic purposes, rather than just for astronauts and professional athletes.

The movement of individual organs in the human body is always influenced by Earth's gravity.   The Earth's gravity works in vertical directions.   Therefore, it is natural and more effective for the human body to exercise in a vertical direction.   Running vertically causes all the body organs such as the brain, chest, abdomen and muscles to contract and relax repeatedly.

Vertical movement stimulates the growth plates, improves blood vessel circulation, activates the lymphatic system and helps eliminate cellulite.   Vertical movements also cause muscle fibers to contract and relax repeatedly, enhancing muscular strength.

The sound-activated vibration emanating from the pedestal and conducted throughout the body stimulates muscle fibers (myocytes) with three times the strength of gravity.   This causes the muscle fibers to contract and relax with greater strength and speed.   These powerful muscle contractions, when repeated with the frequency seen in Whole Body Vibration (WBV) exercise, enhance muscle strength over a shorter period of time than is feasible with any other form of muscle training.

In addition, blood vessels throughout the body are stimulated and circulation is improved.   Furthermore, tendons and ligaments, (parts of the body not easily trained) become better toned.   The function of intrapelvic muscles and small muscle groups, such as facial muscles, (which cannot be strengthened through conventional weight training exercises) are improved.   Exercise involving vibration in the vertical direction also causes greater caloric consumption than regular aerobic exercise.

Whole Body Vibration exercise, in conjunction with conventional muscle exercise, can increase maximum muscle strength by over 30%.   It can also reduce the period of training required by 85% and time spent exercising by over 50%.   Moreover, unlike in conventional muscle training methods involving the lifting of weights, little additional load is imposed on joints, ligaments and tendons in WBV exercise.   Consequently, the risk of exercise-induced injury is reduced to a negligible level.

TurboSonic is a revolutionary piece of exercise equipment developed with optimal application of these theories to yield maximum results in minimal time.

What is Qigong?

The word Qigong (Chi Kung) is made up of two Chinese words.   Qi is pronounced "chee" and is usually translated to mean the life force or vital-energy that flows through all things in the universe.

"The Unmanifested is the source of chi.   Chi is the inner energy field of your body.   It is the bridge between the outer you and the Source.   It lies halfway between the manifested, the world of form, and the Unmanifested.   Chi can be likened to a river or an energy stream.   If you take the focus of your consciousness deeply into the inner body, you are tracing the course of this river back to its Source.   Chi is movement; the Unmanifested is stillness.   When you reach a point of absolute stillness, which is nevertheless vibrant with life, you have gone beyond the inner body and beyond chi to the Source itself: the Unmanifested.   Chi is the link between the Unmanifested and the physical universe."        Eckhart Tolle - The Power of Now

The second word, Gong, pronounced "gung", means accomplishment, or skill that is cultivated through steady practice.   Together, Qigong means cultivating energy.   It is a system practiced for health maintenance, healing and increasing vitality.

Qigong is an ancient Chinese health care system that integrates physical postures, breathing techniques and focused intention.

Qigong practices can be classified as martial, medical, or spiritual.   All styles have three things in common: they all involve a posture, (whether moving or stationary), breathing techniques, and mental focus.   Some practices increase the Qi; others circulate it, use it to cleanse and heal the body, store or emit Qi to help heal others.

Qigong creates an awareness of and influences dimensions of our being that are not part of traditional exercise programs.   Most exercises do not involve the meridian system used in acupuncture nor do they emphasize the importance of adding mind intent and breathing techniques to physical movements.   When these dimensions are added, the benefits of exercise increase exponentially.

The gentle, rhythmic movements of Qigong reduce stress, build stamina, increase vitality, and enhance the immune system.   It has also been found to improve cardiovascular, respiratory, circulatory, lymphatic and digestive functions.

Those who maintain a consistent practice of Qigong find that it helps one regain a youthful vitality, maintain health even into old age and helps speed recovery from illness.   One of the more important long-term effects is that Qigong reestablishes the body-mind-soul connection.

When these three aspects of our being are integrated, it encourages a positive outlook on life and helps eliminate harmful attitudes and behaviors.   It also creates a balanced lifestyle, which brings greater harmony, stability, and enjoyment.

The 7 TurboSonic training sequences were designed by the Korean Qigong Association to direct the flow of vital energy to specific sites in the body.  

TurboSonic® Applications for a Better Life

TurboSonic is an effective exercise device for people with limited movement due to physical challenges.   Through TurboSonic exercise, you can improve your strength, endurance, stability and flexibility without the constraints of conventional exercise.  

General Training:   Improving body balance, flexibility and circulation

Using TurboSonic, the same effect of regular aerobic exercises can be accomplished with a maximum effect of exercise with a minimum amount of time, compared to other exercise methods.

Strength Training:   Increasing muscle strength

TurboSonic stimulates fast twitch muscle fiber to produce powerful muscles. Proportion and ability of such fast-twitch muscle fiber acts as an element that helps to decide the outcome of a race for athletes requiring extra power for a short amount of time, such as athletes at running, jumping and throwing sports.   Exercise using TurboSonic also improves endurance of muscle, which is caused by stimulating the production of growth hormone to improve the function of slow twitch muscle fiber.

Diet / Beauty Clinic:   Easy-to-use and effective for people who dislike exercising

TurboSonic accelerates blood circulation and lymph drainage, strengthens collagen and stimulates the release of growth hormone, helping reduce cellulite.   Whole body vibration improves overall function of the intestinal tract.   WBV also reduces excessive body fat by increasing the recruitment of body fat during exercise and maintains the elasticity of the skin by enhancing the function of the connective tissues and the body's circulatory system.

Rehabilitation:   Minimizing stress on the body

TurboSonic prevents the loss of muscular strength that occurs after surgery, which is generally due to lack of exercise during recovery period.   WBV maintains the physique and improves lymph and blood circulation to promote recovery.   TurboSonic is being widely used by many athletes in their rehabilitation to maximize their recovery and because it also enables a total body workout, for a maximum rehabilitation treatment.

Revitalization:   Anti-aging

TurboSonic promotes secretion of serotonin (a hormone that gives a sense of happiness), Neurotrophine (a hormone that stimulates brain activity), Testosterone (a male hormone), HGH and IGF-1 (growth hormones).   This can help the elderly achieve a healthy recovery and a more active lifestyle.   TurboSonic helps prevent aging by improving blood circulation, digestion and flexibility, while delaying the progress of various illnesses, such as degenerative arthritis, back pain and osteoporosis.   All this helps to promote a more active lifestyle.

Clinical Applications

Vibration Therapy is used in the medical field for the treatment and prevention of a variety of illnesses, injuries, and adverse health conditions.

Emphysema: Ordinarily, patients with emphysema find it nearly impossible to undertake any kind of physical exercise.   TurboSonic Vibration Therapy enables patients to achieve most of the benefits of a regular workout and helps them to do cardio-fitness training such as walking or even running.

MS / ALS: Patients with Multiple Sclerosis and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis are unable to train because the nerves are no longer capable of controlling the muscles properly.   TurboSonic Vibration activates the muscles directly without relying on the nervous system.   Patients tend to feel better, have more energy to cope with everyday activities, experience less pain and are less dependent on others.

Osteoporosis: Millions of Americans, especially women, are at risk of developing this disease, which results from the decalcification of the bones due to hormonal imbalances.   The bones become fragile with a tendency to break easily.   TurboSonic Vibration Therapy increases bone density, usually reversing the effects of osteoporosis.

Arthritis and Rheumatism: TurboSonic Vibration Therapy can reduce the pain and discomfort of these conditions.   It has been proven to increase blood circulation in the joints and dramatically improve flexibility and range of motion.

Lower Back Pain: TurboSonic Vibration Therapy can strengthen the weakened lower back muscles that cause back pain.   (Patients with an acute back hernia should not use Vibration Therapy).

Pelvic Instability: This condition usually results from softening of the connective tissue during pregnancy.   TurboSonic Vibration Therapy quickly brings the hormonal system into balance, enabling connective tissue to recover its strength and firmness.

Excess Body Fat: TurboSonic Vibration Therapy works several ways to dissolve excess body fat; it increases metabolism which burns calories more rapidly; increases blood circulation and lymphatic drainage thereby removing toxins faster.   Human Growth Hormone secretion increases dramatically (460%).   Excess body fat melts away effortlessly.   People who use the TurboSonic Vibration Trainer for 10 minutes, three times a week, lose significantly more fat than those who engage in aerobic activity for one hour three times a week!

Cellulite: Those lumpy fatty deposits that form an unattractive dimpling effect around the thighs and other parts simply melt away under TurboSonic Vibration Therapy.

Stress: Modern life is stressful, causing the release of toxic stress hormones such as cortisol and epinephrine, which throw the immune system out of balance and destroy brain cells by the millions.   Sonic Vibration Therapy increases human growth hormone and serotonin (the "happiness, relaxation and well-being hormone") secretion, lowers cortisol and epinephrine secretion 31%, and enhances circulation, all of which counteract the effects of stress on the body and spirit.
