Stepping on a Juvent platform is a bit like stepping on a scale, but this platform doesn’t measure your weight.

Instead, it sends three quick vibrations through your body to measure the amount of fluid in you and then sets a customized frequency between 32 and 37 hertz, or vibrations per second.

It then sets a timer for 20 minutes, pulsing that low vibration from your toes to the top of your head to promote bone growth, blood flow and balance.

Each Juvent Micro-Impact Platform is built in a small factory off Main Street in Ooltewah that employs 17 people.
