For physical therapists who treat patients suffering from back pain and weakened core muscles, the Power Plate is a beneficial piece of technology. The machine vibrates to stimulate reflexive muscle contractions 25-50 times per second. The Power Plate increases blood circulation to core spinal and abdominal muscles that have weakened over time due to sedentary lifestyle habits.
For people who are lacking in their level of fitness, the Power Plate is designed to ease the difficult transition from an inactive to an healthy lifestyle. While it remains unclear whether this vibration technology can replace other forms of exercise, some physicians believe it can greatly complement any exercise or physical therapy regimen.
"The Power Plate is contracting 30-50 times per second, so those muscles are fatiguing much more rapidly than they would in any other traditional exercise. And for patients that don't exercise, it's a great step to get them into the gym because it doesn't hurt and it's very safe."
The advantage to Power Plate technology is the strengthening of muscles without strain on joints and ligaments for recovering patients. The increased oxygen and blood flow to weakened structures in the body help promote healing and reducing recovery time. The end result for patients are increased muscle strength, flexibility, range of motion, and bone density.

Sciatica is a diagnosis often given out by a doctor. However, without determining the precise cause of the sciatica, it's nearly impossible to provide an effective, highly medically proven treatment. Often times, pain killers or anti-inflammatory medications are given to mask the symptoms. Or, recommendations to rest or even perform certain exercises are given that can actually aggravate the condition, making the underlying problem far worse. Dr. Bruce Bell, DC, QME of the South Coast Spine Center in San Diego, CA recognizes the vital importance of correctly diagnosing the cause of sciatica before prescribing treatment. Once the cause of pain is correctly identified, only then can an effective treatment protocol be recommended. If you suffer from sciatica and haven't been told what's causing it or how to treat it properly, contact Dr. Bell's office today.
