History
The first studies into vibration training were conducted by a Professor Racef almost 30 years ago.
The results of vibration training studies show that with minimal time & effort, it has a very positive effect on the strength of the muscles supporting the spine, and thus on the spine's overall stability.
Twenty years later, the research findings of Professor Racef were put to practical use via the Propriomed, a product of the company BIOSWING, a physio tool to use with patients experiencing anything from back pain to knee surgery. While results were found to be outstanding, cost & complexity kept the Propriomed confined to the Physiotherapists consultation rooms.
All of that changed with the release of the FLEXI-BAR® in 2001.
Developed by Physiotherapists and sport scientists who wanted a more affordable, less complex version of the Propriomed, the FLEXI-BAR® has achieved amazing success.
Since its release, FLEXI-BAR® has been taken up by over 500 fitness clubs in Germany alone. Many of these clubs have joined FLEXI-BAR®'s unique shop front system, enabling these clubs to act as 'shop fronts', selling FLEXI-BAR®s both to their members and to the general public.
Physiotherapists now use FLEXI-BAR as an alternative to the Propriomed. The lower priced FLEXI-BAR® has allowed clients to continue their injury rehabilitation programs at home.
This trend of growth is set to continue throughout Europe, where the benefits of Vibration Training are now being recognised. It not only improves your general fitness; it also improves muscular injuries and weakneses. FLEXI-BAR®'s versatility and proven track record continues to attract the attention of Physiotherapists, Personal Trainers, Fitness Clubs, as well as the home buyer.
