Actually it is "mitral-valve." My mistake. However, in your answer I assume you knew what I was referring to? I am checking Pulse Trainer to see what the minimal amount of "g" force the device can emit. Hope the device has the ability to individually adjust amplitude apart from the adjustability of the Hz.

One question: if a person has "mitro-valve prolapse" (1 in 10 people have this) should one use a vibration machine??? Thanks again. Lloyd:

It is also Pivotal or Lineal. It should be approx $2000 http://www.pulsetrainer.com/index.cfm/PageID/1/ViewPage/Home The Pulse Trainer is not a piece of junk and it has settings equivilent to Juvent.

I did NOT mean to say the Juvent 1000 was "a cheap piece of junk." On the contrary, the Juvent 1000 appears to be very well made, and has good science backing it. I just wanted to know if there were other "equivalents" out there, and I did not want "an equivalent" to be a "cheap" knock-off.

The first Vibration Trainer I tried was a terrible plastic pivotal which I LOVED! I then tried Powerplate which I also thought was great. It was only once I tried a Vibrogym, a BodyShaker and Hypergravity, that I realised what a a diference steel makes (sort of makes standing on a Powerplate like standing on a bumblebee). I have since got Vibra-train machines and again the bar is raised. Most of the people on the site who are knocking Powerplate do so because they have tried a range of machines and have a benchmark. I would be interested to know what machines you have tried to compare your Powerplate with? Ouavale

And you are probably paid to say it. Loser. No I think you will find you are about the last person left who thinks that.
