I love the Galileo and so do my athletes and personal training
clients. The Galileo has quickly become a "must do" in
our workouts. Whole body vibration is the next frontier in training
and Galileo is the best in the industry."

"I use the Galileo/Vibraflex everyday with my
clients ranging from pro athletes to super moms and super dads.
The variety of exercises that we are able to do on the Galileo and
the way we are able to vary the intensity make it exceptional. From
a therapeutic tool to a hard core piece of gym equipment, Galileo
offers something and more to everyone in my gym. I have yet to find
a move that cannot be improved upon by adding Galileo to the equation."

"For the past three years, the Weil Foot & Ankle Institute
has used the Galileo 2000 System in two areas.
Sports Medicine
Through our physical therapy department, we have instituted a program
whereby our "weekend athletes" use the Galileo to rehabilitate
ankle sprains and other acute injuries. Our physical therapists
have discovered that exercise on the Galileo is a valuable adjunct
to proprioceptive training and speeds the recovery. At the suggestion
of one of our patients, Frank Thomas, the Chicago White Sox have
placed a Galileo in the training room of their facility. After about
one month, the players insisted on having a portable unit brought
with them on road trips during the baseball year.
Elderly Patients
We have found that many of our elderly and arthritic patients feel
"considerably better" following an exercise session on
the Galileo. We cannot yet explain or quantify the results of these
treatments, but our ongoing research in this area, using an SF36
Musculoskeletal assessment tool, should give us some worthwhile
data to use in setting up further research studies."

''The Galileo has become an integral part of treatment and rehabilitation
for many of my patients. It has transformed recovery time and increased
patient complience (and enjoyment) in a variety of musculo-skeletal
conditions. This is a serious piece of equipment for practitioners
who are serious about optimising their outcome measures.''

After my last pregnancy I was left with unsightly thread veins
on my legs and was very conscious of wearing skirts. For years I
had tried various remedies, with no success. I was very seriously
considering laser surgery when I decided to use the Galileo. The
results have been nothing short of phenomenal. I used the machine
3-4 times a week for a duration of 10 minutes a session. Over the
course of 6-8 weeks I increased the frequency from 15-22hertz. My
thread veins have reduced in colour, are less defined, and although
not completely gone I am not conscious of them anymore. The Galileo
has helped immensely with circulation and increased my muscle tone.
I am relieved I did not schedule in for surgery.
