Message: <blockquote data-quote="julie42" data-source="post: 342982" data-attributes="member: 52760">Does anyone use a vibation machine? We recently bought a new advanced model and it says it is recommended for diabetics. Our old machine is about 6 years old and no where near as aggressive as our new one so I was going to give it my disabled diabetic dad to try. If he sat on a chair and put his feet on it might be better than no nothing. They recommend just 10 minutes a day. It was invented for the space program many years ago to keep bones and muscles working and they could live in space longer by using the machine. It has bee around as a home device for a few year. I would be interested to know if anyone else uses one. I am doing my 10 minutes a day to try tone up and to see if it helps my blood sugar. I walk the dogs but I do not have time to do a keep fit DVD everyday. As a newbie I know I must stay active but I am no gym bunnie. My hubby and son cycle every weekend but I could never keep up with them, 30 miles is a lazy day.</blockquote>
