There is no Australian agent. The Lounge is shipped directly from the manufacturer in Illinois (USA). Shipping to USA destinations is included in the price. Shipping elsewhere is extra. Yes - the company does provide the adapters needed for use in Australia. It takes a couple of weeks for the shipment to be prepared, shipped and received. Robert Hi:

People have reported the same on my radio shows, so I have confidence that it is providing relief from symptoms associated with Parkinsons Disease. I have not yet actually seen a release of the Rush medical study of vibration therapy though preliminary copies are being circulated. Dr. Suzanne Jonas discussed the results of the Rush study during my radio show with her several weeks ago (http://www.blogtalkradio.com/parkinsons-recovery). You can place the pads anywhere. Many people place one pad between their back and a chair and plant their feet on the other pad which is placed on the floor. Other people place both pads under their mattress and listen to the Parkinsons CD (which comes with the VibroMax when you order it here) and vibrate as they sleep. You can place the pads anywhere to see what provides the greatest relief for the longest period of time. A hard surface is not necessary or required. The strength of the vibrations is controlled by the volume you set for the sound. The higher the volume, the stronger the vibrations, Robert Rodgers, Ph.D. 877-526-4646 I have heard second hand that results of a Rush Medical center study show that yes – vibration therapy does help a great deal with balance and mobility issues.

Does this help with balance and walking better? Or has that not been established yet? If one buys the Portable version of this product, do you have to have a very firm couch to place it on in order to get full benefits? Thank you.

In general - it strengthens the mind-body connections throughout the body. I have not heard any direct reports on slow bowel motion specifically. There is a sleep CD that comes with the vibration equipment which does help with sleep. I have heard back from a number of people that it does help with sleep patterns. Yes - the equipment does work in Australia, The company sends the connectors you need in order to connect it up to your electrical system, At this point, the company has to ship the equipment from the USA to all foreign countries.

I was wondering if the vibration therapy had any benefit on other symptoms such as very slow bowel motion and difficulty in staying asleep. Also, do the machines work in other countries with the different frequencies such as Australia? Are they available in other countries? Thank you for your help, Regards, Colleen Hi.

This clearly will vary but people who use it tell me that they experience a positive outcome from each session, The effect builds over time, You should not have to wait long to know how this therapy effects you. The sessions are as long as you want to make them. You can listen to an entire CD - which can be 30-40 minutes - or less. It is really all up to you, The intensity of vibration is affected by the CD that you play. People tell me that its effects last 24-48 hours, so they typically use it every other day. It is an enjoyable, stress reducing experience so some people use it every day. I like it because it helps everyone in the family (and neighborhood!). I do not know whether anyone has used it on an autistic population, but I suspect it would help greatly strengthen the mind -. body connection. To my knowledge, no research has been done on that particular population, The technology is really very new (though the idea is 120 years old!).
