Q. Can power plate treatment help a degenerative spine condition?

A. Vibration – the technique used with power plate treatment – is a known stimulus to help bone and soft tissue form and heal faster. However, it is also recognized that vibration can accelerate the degeneration of an intervertebral disc. People with painful degenerative spine conditions should avoid the use of the power plate in the standing or sitting position, although extremity work is fine. Power plate instructors are specially trained and certified in the use of this unique piece of equipment.
