Vibration plates & Rebounders are everywhere online - Are they worth it?

As more & more people are starting to do holiday shopping - My inbox has recently been filled with questions about vibration plates, rebounders, and whether they’re worth the investment (especially because they’re all over social media right now).

Both of these tools can support lymph flow, circulation, mitochondrial function, and even EZ water- especially in the winter when sunlight, movement, and warmth take a hit.

I’ve experienced some of the biggest benefits myself over the past year, and decided to break it down in today's email & share my holiday gift guide (a lot of sales are starting today).

A couple quick things:

Why These Tools Matter More in the Winter

For most people - winter reduces:

• Natural infrared exposure

• Outdoor movement

• Blood flow to the periphery

• Dopamine and serotonin from sunlight

• Lymphatic movement (you naturally move less in the cold)

Vibration and rebounding provide a mechanical stimulus that helps compensate for all of the above (and when combined with red/infrared light, they amplify each other).

FAQ 1 - What’s the difference between a vibration plate and a rebounder?

Rebounder (mini-trampoline) - ​click here for the one I use​ 

Uses gravitational loading + unloading.

Supports:

• Lymph drainage

• Balance and vestibular function

• Mood and dopamine pathways

• Cardiovascular fitness

• Mitochondrial flexibility through dynamic movement

Vibration Plate - ​click here for the one I use​ 

Uses rapid mechanical oscillation.

Supports:

• Microcirculation

• Muscle activation (even passively)

• Nitric oxide release

• Mitochondrial respiration

• Fascia hydration

• Low-impact movement for all fitness levels

Both are excellent, just in different ways, and honestly - I find myself using my ​vibration plate​ more on days when I feel sluggish!

FAQ 2 - Is EZ (Exclusion Zone) water actually involved?

Short answer: yes - indirectly, but meaningfully.

EZ water forms on hydrophilic surfaces when the body receives:

• Infrared light

• Mechanical movement

• Electrical charge (redox)

• Proper hydration + minerals

Mechanical stimulation from vibration and rebounding can expand structured water layers, because they:

– Improve microcirculation

– Increase oxygen delivery

– Enhance proton/electron flow

– Warm tissues

– Move lymph and interstitial fluid

This is why people often report:

• Better warmth

• Less stiffness

• Cleaner lymph drainage

• A “lighter,” more energized feeling

Especially in the winter.

FAQ 3- Which one is better?

It depends on your goals & how you feel overall to begin with!

 ​Rebounder​ is best for:

• Maximal lymph movement

• Post-infection recovery

• Mood and motivation

• Cardiovascular benefits

• Kids (they love it!)

 ​Vibration Plate ​is best for:

• Microcirculation (winter essential)

• Low-impact mitochondrial support

• People with joint issues, fatigue, or chronic illness

• Warm-up before workouts

• Pairing with red light therapy

Most people benefit from BOTH, but if you want the easier, lower-impact option, the vibration plate wins.

My secret sauce: Why I Pair Red Light Therapy + Vibration Plate (My Winter Protocol)

Red light and vibration naturally amplify each other:

Red Light Therapy (​click here and save 25% on the panel​ I pair with my vibration plate)

• Stimulates cytochrome c oxidase

• Supports mitochondrial charge

• Expands EZ water

• Reduces inflammation

• Helps with winter dopamine/melatonin signaling

V​ibration Plate:​ 

• Increases blood flow

• Moves lymph

• Activates muscle fibers

• Warms tissues for deeper light penetration

Together:

You get improved mitochondrial function, better hydration at the cellular level, and a much stronger energetic “lift” - without a long morning routine or intense exercise.

My 10-minute protocol:

• Stand on the plate (make sure knees aren't locked)

• Red light panel in front for 5 minutes

• Turn around for 5 minutes on the back

• Optional: light stretching or slow bouncing

A winter-friendly protocol that anyone can stick with.

FAQ 4 - Can you overdo it?

Rarely - but a few simple guidelines help:

• Start with 5 minutes and build

• Stay hydrated and mineralized

• Skip intense bouncing if you’re dizzy or postpartum

• Stop if your pelvic floor feels pressure

• Use red light 6–12 inches away for deeper penetration
