Galileo patented the “original wobble board” in 1996 has continued to lead the way in development of whole-body vibration therapy.

The Med-35 model offers side-alternating vibration which mimics the natural movements of human walking, providing vital sensory feedback as well as muscle activation. This enhances recovery from injury, function in long term conditions and muscle performance in training individuals. In addition, the side-alternating nature of vibration using Galileo systems targets back and core muscles more effectively than vertical vibration systems.

Galileo therapy is backed by over 25 years of research and has been shown to have widespread beneficial effects including:

• Improved balance and muscle power in the elderly, reducing the risk of falls.
• Enhanced bone mineral density reducing the risk of fracture
• Reduced back pain
• Improved muscle strength
• Improved balance in neurological conditions
• Improved recovery from exercise
• Reduced spasticity in neurological conditions such as Stroke and Cerebral Palsy

The Galileo Med-35 is available for use in our Spratton Clinic, under the supervision of our trained Physiotherapists, Sports Therapists and Personal Trainers.
