A 2009 study, on Whole Body Vibration,  by the European Association for the study of obesity, suggests that” if used properly, vibration plate exercise machines may help you lose weight and trim the particularly harmful belly fat between the organs. Scientists found that overweight or obese people who regularly used the equipment in combination with a calorie restricted diet were more successful at long-term weight loss than those who combined dieting with a more conventional fitness routine.”

A 2018 systematic review  using Whole Body Vibration with obese women, showed significant weight and fat loss , increased metabolism,  improved cardiac autonomic functions, peripheral and central circulation, glucose regulation and inflammation level. The study also reveals that Whole Body Vibration can be prescribed as a stand alone exercise in the early stages of a weight loss program.
