Has anyone tried using Whole Body Vibration machines (WBV)?
They are the vibrating platforms that you stand on.
Currently they are being marketed as a weight loss devices but it seems to me that they may be a good way to improve circulation and massage for the pelvic floor muscles. Then again I could imagine it might make things worse.
Any experience with this ??

Never heard of this as a treatment for PN but I am definitely not interested in trying it. Riding in a vibrating car or standing on a public transit bus is enough torture for me.

These interviews are very interesting.
Guy says there is an anti inflammatory effect.
