    How to do it

    1. Start on the lowest setting.
    2. Stand with soft knees and hold the handles if there are any.
    3. Stay on for a few minutes, then step off and rest.
    4. Note how your legs feel afterwards.

    Easier version

    Sit on a chair with only your feet resting on the plate.

    Safety note

    Stop if it hurts; gentle beats intense. If you have a heart, joint or circulation condition, check with your doctor first. Check with your doctor before using a vibration plate, especially in pregnancy, with implants or with a circulation condition. Ask your doctor or lymph therapist whether this suits your legs, and which technique and pressure to use.

    Why women include it

    Some women with lipedema talk about using a vibration plate at home or at the gym. Some like how their legs feel afterwards; others find it is not for them. Notice how your legs feel and log it.
