Vibration therapy is using a device on the body that oscillates against the skin and muscles. There are many therapeutic benefits to vibration, including increased bloodflow and decreased pain and tension. Percussive therapy is the rapid application of compression to the body, where the percussive therapy devices comes off of the body and then compresses it intermittently. This results in the combination of both compression and vibration. The benefits of percussive therapy are similar to vibration, but can also provide additional and longer-lasting benefits.
