Our guides are general information, not medical advice. Here is who should check with a GP before using a vibration plate.

The information on Vibration Plate Info is for general education only. It is not medical advice, and it isn’t a substitute for advice from your GP, a physiotherapist or another qualified health professional.

Check with a professional first

Vibration plates aren’t suitable for everyone. Speak to your GP before using one if you:

  • are pregnant
  • have a pacemaker or another implanted device
  • have had recent surgery, or have a joint replacement or metal implants
  • have, or have had, blood clots or deep vein thrombosis
  • have epilepsy, a heart condition, or problems with your eyes such as a detached retina
  • have any long-term health condition, or are unsure whether a plate is right for you

Our benefits and risks guide explains these in more detail.

About the research we describe

When we describe studies, we summarise what they found as fairly as we can, including their limits. Research results apply to the groups that were studied, under the conditions used, and won’t necessarily apply to you. A plate is not a treatment for any medical condition.

Stop if something feels wrong

Stop using a plate straight away if you feel dizzy, faint, short of breath or in pain, and seek medical advice if symptoms continue.

We aren’t responsible for any loss or injury from using information on this site. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for your plate.
