If it is for inch loss/ fitness/ toning you would be better with a lineal. Ideally a steel which will be expensive - new would start at about £3500, but you can pick some up second hand - look out on ebay for BodyShaker JNr ir pro or Vibrogym Pro. Do you have a budget - that would help get some idea of what might be good. Hi Shameen

A platform that tilts from side to side - so one foot goes up while the other goes down. Or there are pretty good pics on this article to help you.... http://www.vibrationtraining.net/2009/03/whole-body-vibration-training-machine-review-categories Do not get fooled by all the fancy names.
