Questions frequently asked about SONIX Whole Body Vibration

  • SONIX is unlike any other vibration device on the market. SONIX uses subwoofers to generate infrasound which creates the vibration effect; but is almost silent when operating. Is gentler because of the sine wave action driving vibration which eliminates discomfort created by other vibration devices. No jackhammer effect, no watery eyes and no headache. Can operate at very low and very high frequencies (3-70Hz) beyond the range of other devices enhancing its utility with lymphatic drainage, osteoporosis, relaxation and muscle re-building.

  • Yes it can. SONIX when used regularly can build muscle tone/strength/mass and balance; even in persons who are physcially compromised or disabled. Tolerance can be slowly built over time to maximise benefits; even with some participants who are only able to sit on the device or stand for short periods initially.

  • Benefits around resistance exercises performed on SONIX are amplified by the vibration effect. Simply allow the device’s infrasound and vibrational energy to work muscles harder and let SONIX do the work for you.

  • Sonix machines now go down to 3 hertz and with its high amplitude, this gives the best flush out of all vibration machines. The slow hertz creates the strongest negative pressure in the lymph vessels (one way valves) and flushes up to 5 teaspoons of lymph per minute.

  • To maximise gains around bone density, people need to lean back on their heels, and not absorb action through their leg muscles, to maximise G force. This was often not possible on traditional machines because of uncomfortable impact generated by mechanical operation.

  • Benefits are significant and broad.

    • Diminishing wrinkles, scars and stretch marks

    • Enhances collagen production.

    • Boosts cardiovascular circulation

    • Increases lymphatic activity

    • Muscle recovery

    • Enhancing performance

    • Accelerating wound healing

    • Reducing inflammation

    • Promoting hair growth

    • Elevating testosterone levels

    • Repairing sun damage

  • Sonix uses whole body vibration; and there are limitations around its use.

    Excessive use can cause overload. Never exceed a 30 minute session and no more than 2 sessions per day.

    Consult with your Doctor first if these conditions are present:

    • Serious cardiovascular disease

    • Post Operative Surgery recovery

    • Vertebral disk involvement

    • Tumour formation

    • Epilepsy

    • Orthopaedic reconstruction with screws and plates

    • Pregnancy

  • The SONIX devices used in the clinic are of a commercial grade and are rated to treat individuals up to 300Kg.

    Home SONIX devices are available for rental and purchase.
