I have found that the VibroPlate has helped me a lot with muscle pain after exercise, it helps balance and is good if I can’t go out walking BUT I only use on lower settings and only for a few minutes at a time, not the recommended 10+ mins. There are contraindications, especially for older people using this equipment and it has been known to cause retina detachment at higher levels at sustained times. I have a side to side vibrating plate similar to the BlueFin which I use with caution and from the insights my Physio taught me. The Bluefin is not something I would ever consider buying from Amazon without expert advice and experience. In my humble opinion, you would need to get onto both and have individual evaluation on what would be suitable for you and try both before you could possibly evaluate - so buyer beware. Part of my problems was with fascia and tendons. I tried both types (but not the Marodyne) in his studio at an MS Centre and believe me, they felt very different and according to my Physio, each had both benefits but worked on different structures - the side to side better for building core and muscle whilst the pulsating better for connective tissues - tendons, fascia etc. Very different, although they may work at similar specs they operate in a very different way.Īccording to my neuro Physio the essential difference is who is using it and their fitness level and with what expert knowledge/instruction. The BIG difference as far as I can see - the BlueFin is a side to side plate which basically wobbles at high rate whilst the Marodyne, as far as I can see, is a pulsing, none moving plate. Was the source of your information a doctor, a physio or what? What was the evaluation based on? Thank you for posting - interesting post although without knowing more about the source of your information, no names required, I would be very hesitant for reasons outlined below. My only motivation is that I have been helped by others here and maybe my post will help somebody else. I am not involved with either the Marodyne or the Bluefin companies and I get nothing out of it if they sell or don't sell. I am posting this for all the people out there who need and would dearly love to have a Marodyne but can't afford the eye-watering price. I have personally not used either machine long enough to say if it has made a difference or not. Instead just have a look at the specs of the machines and decide for yourself. Please don't believe me or ask me to pm you about my source. You just have to look at the Marodyne specs and set the Bluefin to deliver the same. I have been advised that there is plenty evidence that the Marodyne does work as claimed, but that the Bluefin can do the same for a fraction of the price. I have it on very qualified medical advice that the Bluefin Fitness Vibration Plate from Amazon will do everything that the Marodyne does.
