Can Whole Body Vibration help with depression?

In: Whole Body Vibration

When all the muscle groups in the body are able to receive necessary stimulus, the effects of stress can be reduced. When using a vibration platform, endorphins are released into the blood stream promoting a sense of well being, enhancing the perceived quality of life.

Vibration training yields an increase in key hormones like serotonin that counter mental lethargy and enhance overall mood while sharpening the ability to focus and concentrate.   Research has shown an increase in serotonin levels after vibration. Serotonin is the neurotransmitter that makes you calm, happy and feel good.  Serotonin happens to be the most widely studied neurotransmitter since it helps regulate a vast range of psychological and biological functions.

 Some people have reported an increase in a feeling of optimism, which has lead to the conclusion that the stimulating effects of the vibration machine can help counteract certain types of depression and loss of motivation.

This alone really makes a difference in the majority of people.  When you feel good you do more!
