Passive exercise and the Thera-Plex unit

The Thera-Plex Passive Exercise Unit is a resistance / passive exercise unit designed to increase circulation to all parts of the body while improving muscle tone and removing unwanted fat. It is basically an easy exercise. It really is!

The Thera-Plex Passive Exercise Unit uses stimulated circulation to transport toxins and impurities, once broken down during treatments, out of the body, and firms and tones the skin around the muscle without the impurities. In simple terms: all you do is lie back on the unit and “shake” the fat off your body.

One of the greatest assets of the passive exercise unit is that it can fit into everyone’s schedule. A minimum of three thirty minute treatments (or 90 minutes total) are needed each week to achieve the desired results. Of course, the more treatments taken per week, up to an hour a day maximum, the faster the results will be obtained.

When used in conjunction with a sensible diet, a minimum of three treatments (1/2 hour) per week can produce a weight loss of four to six pounds per month. It is very common to find clients losing 3 pounds and 6-8 inches every two weeks!

Some people use the unit for medical reasons. It is a great exercise for those who are totally paralyzed and even for those who have suffered car accidents. Usually this is the type of exercise one would do after finishing physical therapy. The unit has been shown to relieve pain, sometimes even cure paralysis. You see, the unit runs at speed and a customer who is injured or in pain can start at 2-3 speed and increase to higher speeds further down the line.

The unit uses five exercise positions designed to stimulate the entire circulatory system in sequential order, starting with the upper body and working throughout the body, using rippling (a type of gentle vibration), not potentially harmful vibration. The unit offers gentle cardiovascular stimulation and conditioning while firming and toning the entire body, resulting in inch loss.

The unit is individually programmed for each person’s needs, so that each person can put more emphasis on problem areas, allowing them to lose where they need to lose: those little problem areas that we all have!

Since the treatments are passive in concept, most people do not perspire and do not get fatigued by taking their treatments each week. In fact, most people find the treatments relaxing and invigorating at the same time. The rest cycle is the stretching cycle where you slow down a bit to acclimate to standing up again, kind of like what you would do on a “cool down” after an exercise class.

This is a really easy exercise!
