Yes.  We are listed on the FDA's web site as a registered Establishment and Device.  Most of our competitors are not registered with the FDA.

Simply plug it in, turn it on, and stand on the platform for 10 to 20 minutes. That’s all it takes to gain the benefits of Juvent’s passive micro-impact exercise. Feel free to read a book, watch television, use your tablet, or even eat or drink while using the Juvent Micro-Impact Platform.

You’ll feel gentle, soothing waves of micro-impact pulses traveling up from your feet into your legs and throughout your entire body. The sensation is pleasant and exhilarating, not intense or distracting.  You can feel it in your jaw or TMJ. The Juvent Platform works by sending low-magnitude, high-frequency energy waves through your body, and thus produces a quiet hum. Stand in the center of the platform and evenly distribute your weight to ensure a pleasant experience.

Yes. Juvent’s Micro-Impact Platform has been used in both children and senior published clinical studies.  It is registered as a Class I medical device, the Juvent Platform is safe for young adults and seniors for up to several hours of use a day, per ISO standards (we only recommend the study doses of 10-20 minutes, 3 times per week). Many tell us they use their Juvent 10 minutes in the morning and 10 minutes before bed.  It operates in a range of frequencies that experts have deemed safe.  It then calibrates itself to your unique body composition, you can be confident in your health and safety.  Be sure to read our Owner’s Manual for specific risk factors and contraindications.  You will also want to consult with your physician before undertaking any new exercise program.

We are continually shocked and dismayed by whole-body vibration vendors who have little or no published research making claims based on Juvent studies.  They say they are safe, yet operate at energy levels of 10-50 times higher than Juvent’s micro-impact!  They also operate at variable frequency ranges from 5Hz to 200Hz or higher without explaining the danger of organ resonance.  Juvent operates at very safe 0.3 – 0.4 g’s of energy between 32Hz-37Hz, a range that is known to be very safe.

Juvent’s micro-impact is possible because of our patented platform mechanism.  It moves your body only 0.05mm in vertical distance (about the height of two pieces of paper stacked).  Contrast this to 2mm-10mm in most WBV platforms.  2mm is 40 times more displacement than Juvent!  Imagine their claims of safety.  No data, no studies just internet testimonials from nameless users.  They promise to cure hundreds of disorders without any peer-reviewed data.  Most of these WBV vendors will not show you their mechanisms because they are usually just cheap motors with an out-of-round steel weight spinning around.  How much does that cost to make? $50-$75?  So if you do decide to buy a whole-body vibration platform, and we do not recommend you do, then don’t pay over $300.  When it’s time for repairs, good luck.  Many have few or no replacement parts or they have to take new units apart for spares which means when they run out you are done.

WBV vendors claim to support thousands of pounds in weight.  Well, so do large industrial rock shakers or large paint shakers.  If anything this should be a reason to not use these devices.  The human body is a complex and fragile system and very small amounts of energy and substances can have dramatic effects.  Get a speck of sand in your eye and see how your body responds.

Juvent’s vibration platform is the result of over $40MM in research and development.  There was a reason.  Vibrating a human body is a tricky business.  Most vibration is NOT good for the body.  Juvent’s patented micro-impact is.  Our long-term, prospective, randomized trials prove it.

Don’t be an unpaid, unsupervised research subject for a WBV company that just purchased a container full of platforms from a Far East manufacturer and put up an internet site.  Your life and well-being are worth far more than that.

As with any medical device, you should consult with your physician before using it. You should not use the Juvent platform if you’re pregnant, history of deep vein thrombosis, or have pre-existing retinal detachment problems. We have not had these complications but our Medical Advisory Board suggested that these could put one at risk.

No. While excessive levels of impact (greater than 1g force and 1 mm’s of travel) can be harmful, the pulses of the Juvent Health Micro-Impact Platform are beneficial (only 0.3 – 0.4 g’s and 0.05mm of travel). In fact, the Surgeon General’s report on bone health states “physical activity that includes impact is more effective than those that do not include impact.”

When the body doesn’t receive enough impact on a regular basis, bones and muscles can atrophy and suffer. The Juvent Health Platform is a safe, proven, medically sound method to get the essential impact that your musculoskeletal system needs.

Yes. Only the Juvent Platform contains our patented, proprietary technology that calibrates the micro-impact frequency to your particular body composition. Each time someone stands on it, within 12 seconds our computer adjusts to ideally fit your body, so multiple users of any shape and size can safely benefit from the Juvent platform.

You are important.  Juvent’s Micro-Impact Platform is the U.S. manufactured, Registered Class I Medical Device.  We use precision-machined aircraft aluminum parts, aerospace actuators, gold flashed motherboards (corrosion resistance, and durability) all tested and calibrated to within 10,000th of an inch! We service and provide replacements parts to anywhere in the world.  Our employees are U.S.-based and paid a livable wage with full health, dental, vision benefits.  This is not true of many of the WBV manufacturers who use what some classify as “slave” or forced labor.  They often use pot metal castings that may contain metals and materials of unknown origin and build in large lots with few if any replacement parts available.  The companies go in and out of business regularly leaving buyers with no recourse for warranty or repairs.

We continually strive to provide the best value,  but will not compromise quality for a lower price.  We had a test unit running in our facility for a simulated 150 years of continuous use!  This is why we can offer a 10-year limited warranty on our platform.  Juvent is designed to last for your lifetime.

If you compare Juvent to a prosumer or commercial grade treadmill or recumbent bike we are competitively priced.  Most retail store consumer-grade exercise equipment is designed to last only 3 to 5 years.  That is why you see so many on the street for trash pick-up.

We offer to finance through Klarna or Affirm Credit*.  If you were to put a down payment of $995, then the monthly payments would be less than $200 for 3 years*.  That averages out to less than $2 per day over 10 years.  If you are 60 years old today the government actuarial tables say you should live to 90 years of age, that’s 30 years of use!  Juvent is a great investment in your health as well as your family and spouse.  Your Juvent platform can also be shared by anyone in your household which makes it an even better investment.

Most Whole Body Vibration(WBV) Platforms are inexpensive for a reason.  Cheap motors, switches, metal, and parts manufactured overseas with cheap shaker motors or cams; built out of pot metal (some metals from China have been shown to contain toxic metal waste), have little or no manufacturer backing and are designed to last just a few years. They are NOT registered with the FDA which means they are not required to track their adverse events. Most WBV Platforms are sold by small U.S.-based distributors who buy a container of platforms in bulk from Asia for less than a hundred dollars each and BOOM their experts on a website.  They then sell them for thousands of dollars and disappear.  Repairs can be difficult or impossible.  Their websites make outrageous health claims and promise to cure or treat just about every disorder.  They do not fear the FDA or FTC because they know they will not be in business long enough to be prosecuted.

What is worse, they are unregulated, and almost all deliver potentially dangerous levels of energy (greater than 1g), and frequencies (less than 25Hz or higher than 40+ Hz).  Did you know the spinal disks can be damaged at sustained vibration at 6Hz?  They have few if any studies to back up their claims and many use Juvent’s own studies to make their claims! One site used our videos for over two years!

The many years of research behind the development of Juvent provide you with the assurance that Juvent’s patented technology will not put your health at risk but provide you and your family years of benefits from safe and effective micro-impact (0.3-0.4 g’s of force and between 32Hz – 37Hz).

You may ask, “Well can’t I just turn down the cheap platform to 32Hz and 0.3g’s and have a Juvent?”  Sounds good. Why not just go over to China and buy a load of cheap platforms? Right?  Well, it’s not that easy.  Our team has over 50+ years in the highly technical spinal and neurological medical device field and we understand the significance of Juvent’s technology.  It is unique.  If you turn a normal platform’s setting to a Juvent’s you will NOT get a physiologically effective dose of micro-impact.  Why?

• Juvent’s patented mechanism only moves you in the Z-Axis(up and down), 0.05mm.  This is less than the width of 2 hairs.  Very gentle.
• Juvent’s patented software finds YOUR body’s resonant frequency between 32Hz-37Hz. So what?  This is what allows a very low dose of energy (0.3g-0.4g’s) to be effective.  It also explains why just turning down a WBV platform will not work.
• Juvent is safe for long-term exposure.  This is NOT true of WBV.

It is a fact that like Juvent, WBV platforms can deliver health benefits.  But at what risk?  There are numerous examples in medicine where what seems logical is not, take aspirin as an example.  You can thin your blood with 5 adult aspirin very quickly, but then bleed to death in a simple surgery or you can take a safer, longer-term approach using baby aspirin and survive.  Both yield a positive cardiac effect. One way is good the other is not.  If we could make a safe AND effective platform for less we would.

The other challenge is that it can take years for the damage of chronic exposures to manifest themselves.  Ask any professional football player or boxer.  Their high-impact exposure is now proving very costly and destroying lives.  Many famous athletes use Juvent.  Why?  They have done the homework and understand all too well the consequences of WBV. Don’t gamble with your health and that of your loved ones.  We care and that’s why we continue to build Juvent’s the way we do.  We test every unit with a dual-channel oscilloscope for proper signal and safety and then run it another 3 cycles to make sure it’s just right.

Inside the Juvent is a microprocessor that continuously monitors your use and will shut off if it detects an incorrect signal.  That’s smart.

When you amortize the cost of a Juvent over just its 10-year warranty, it is less than $2 per day.  Over its operating life of 20+ years, it’s only pennies per day. Juvent is a great value and investment.  Go ahead and get started today toward better health.

*Subject to Klarna and Affirm’s terms and conditions and qualifications.  Estimated payments and terms vary by credit score.

You bet! When you compare investing money in a Juvent to other possible investments, purchases, or expenses the cost makes sense.

Many people discover they no longer need to spend hundreds of dollars a month on chiropractic care or cryogenic treatments.

Keep in mind that Juvent has a 10-year limited warranty. It is designed to last for the rest of your life. If you are 60 years old today you should likely live till 90 years, that's 30 years of use. That breaks down to just 27 cents per day for a couple.

The short answer is no.  Not close.  While the old Juvent and Marodyne share a common founder, Clinton Rubin, Ph.D., and Drs. Rubin and McLeod did much of the early work in LMMS which led to the formation of Juvent, Dr. Rubin is not a listed inventor on Juvent’s current platform patents.  This revolutionary design was invented and patented by Titi Trandifir, Roger Talish, and Donald Krompasick, three very talented engineers. Dr. Trandifir consults with Juvent and has overseen our current design and production.  Roger Talish commented that the new Juvent was building the best units he had ever seen.  See the comparison of the designs below.  Notice that Marodyne’s LivMD is very similar to Juvent’s abandoned early design.

Juvent VS Marodyne LivMD

Note the springs all around the edges on both the early Juvent design and Marodyne’s.  Notice the center actuator on both.  These were key faults of the early Juvent design that was abandoned for the current design (middle).

LivMD’s is based on the earliest Juvent design which is difficult to use.  Its center actuator design forces a user to stand balanced in the center of the platform to assure they receive the correct signal.  Additionally and equally as important, the LivMD design does not find the user’s resonant frequency.  This is a central tenet in the effectiveness of LMMS/Micro-Impact.  Without finding a user’s resonant frequency the small amount of energy (0.3-0.4g) is not sufficient to generate the clinical results seen in all of Juvent’s studies.

Below is a summary of the distinct advantages that Juvent has over Marodyne’s.

From time to time we see internet posts from people and yes even some clinicians who do not understand the important differences between these two technologies.  They say they are the same or that the LivMD is a “newer” design when in fact it is the older, abandoned design, chosen because it did not violate Juvent’s very broad patents.

There are those wrongly claiming that Juvent is not continuing research or hasn’t improved its product.  This is also untrue.  Juvent has made many key improvements to the earlier design and continues to improve our product daily.  We use gold flashing in our motherboards, for instance, to dramatically increase the life of our units.  We have developed an optical switch that has eliminated the switch mat which has improved the efficiency of delivery by as much as 25%.   But one thing that has stayed the same; we have not changed the trademark signal and process that has brought so many users success in the battle over poor bone health and joint pain.  We are committed to this.

There are also those who say that Juvent is charging too much for its product.  Well, the early Juvent went out of business because they charged too little for their units.  We have chosen to keep our manufacturing and assembly here in the U.S. to not only provide jobs to Americans but to also maintain the quality and signal that is so important to giving you the results you expect.  This is not true of our competitors who build with the cheapest suppliers and parts.  The old adages are true.

A Juvent platform is an investment in your and your family’s health.  The difference in the price of $1,000 or $3,000 will soon fade, but the savings of buying a cheap WBV unit or a LivMD device will not fade as you realize that it is not a Juvent and that it does not deliver Juvent’s patented signal.  You become a research subject.

In summary.  Juvent has very strong patents and its device AND software are unique in the industry.  The fact that so many are trying to copy it proves its value and uniqueness.  We frequently test and follow up on claims made by competitors or reps selling cheap knock-offs.  They are not the same, not even close.  It is sad that so many are being misled because their health is at stake.  Stay with a proven product and brand.  We are committed to providing you with an amazing product and technology that has taken many years to perfect.

Juvent has a comprehensive Privacy Policy that protects any information that you share with us including health or credit card information.
