Vacunaut training combines the advantages of gentle exercise and VacuTherapy to produce a highly effective method of figure sculpting. Whilst dressed in what resembles a space suit consisting of 122 air chambers, and walking on a treadmill, you are connected to a machine which creates a vacuum around your midriff. Low pressure in the chambers encourage the blood into the problem areas where it is enriched with fat, then the subsequent change to high pressure accelerates the transport of the fat enriched blood to the exercising muscles, where it is oxidized (burned up) to release energy during the treatment and for up to 8 hours afterwards.

It is a low intensity work out that you can take at your own pace, so males and females of all ages and fitness levels are suitable for the treatment. Each session takes 40 minutes, and we recommend 12 treatments - 3 or 4 a week. The treatment is a particular favourite of celebrities such as Robbie Williams and Anna Friel.

Pioneering itself at the forefront of long term inch loss, the Hypoxi S120 is an active therapy to target fat burn from the lower body whilst you gently train. At the heart of Hypoxi’s therapy is a unique vacuum chamber in which the client sits, cycling at their own pace, wearing a rubber skirt around the midriff as a seal. Low pressure within the chamber initially encourages blood into the fatty tissues where it is enriched with enough fatty acids needed for energy during the treatment. The S120 now ensures a change to positive pressure, this accelerates movement of the fat to the working muscles for use during the therapy, and for up to 8 hours afterwards. The fat is then burnt off naturally, ensuring inch loss from exactly where you desire! Each session lasts for 30 minutes and we recommend 12 - 18 sessions - 3 or 4 a week for maximum results. Avid fans of Hypoxi therapy include celebrities such as Cheryl Cole, Katie Price and Kerry Katona.

Application of cWBV also has a positive effect on tendon tissue, bone tissue, the nervous system and hormonal balances. Controlled WBV aims to harness the positive effects of WBV, with a fixed and constant amplitude, and a fixed and well-balanced frequency range.

In cWBV, 3-dimensional mechanical vibrations, with the main vector in the vertical direction, are transmitted to the body through a vibration plate. With the fitvibe, the frequency of that vibration can be adjusted from 20 to as much as 60 Hz (20 – 60 vibrations per second). The mechanical stimulus produces a stretch reflex in the muscles that depends on the set frequency and that causes involuntary muscle contractions. This means that the muscles react to the vibration by contracting and relaxing automatically. Although this may vary from person to person, frequencies of about 30 Hz and higher cause very intense and highly effective muscle contractions. Frequencies in the lower range are used for relaxing by stimulating the blood circulation.

CWBV on a Fitvibe has important advantages compared to conventional training methods:

• Short sessions (average 10-20 minutes per session)

• Rapid results

• Easy to use

• Wide range of benefits

• Applicable where a low threshold is needed

• For young as well as older people

• Extremely versatile – all muscle groups can be trained

Additionally, Fitvibe’s Personal Coach explains and visualizes the right posture for each exercise. Fitvibe vibration plates are designed with the user’s safety and health as paramount priorities. All randomized vibrations, like the ones associated with whole body vibration, are excluded. This is also the reason why a well-balanced vibration plate is so important.
