Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What does "Vibroacoustic therapy" means?
The term "Vibroacoustics" comes from the Latin verb vibrare (to vibrate, to wave) and the Greek verb akouein (to hear). Vibroacoustic therapy may be defined as the process of propagation of sound vibrations through the body in order to achieve positive body response, better blood circulation through blood vessels. These vibrations can be extremely small, sometimes indiscernible.
Q: What can vibroacoustic therapy do for me?
Vibroacoustic therapy has several qualities, making it a good choice for the treatment of several diseases and disorders. Upon vibroacoustic stimulation, the nerve endings send neurological commands to the brain to shut off the pain. Vibroacoustic therapy improves the blood and lymphatic flow from four to fifteen times. In addition, it promotes the decrease of inflammations. See the manual for more indications. This kind of physiologic stimulation will help the natural healing process in your body.
Q: How does Vitafon work?
Vitafon emits micro vibrations in sound wave frequencies and transfers them to your body when the vibraphones (earphone-type devices) are applied to different body areas depending on undergoing treatment.
Q: Do I need any special training to use Vitafon?
You do not need any training at all; just follow the instructions on the manual.
Q: Can I use Vitafon by myself? Do I need someone else's assistance?
You can use Vitafon in the comfort and convenience of your home, without any help. You can read or watch TV during treatments.
Q: How do I know that Vitafon is working?
You will hear constantly changing tones and feel small vibrations and warmth around the application areas. Treatment is in progress if the right number on display (reserved for time; two digits) is higher than zero.
Q: Can Vitafon be used along with other types of treatment?
Vitafon is one of the options available to you. It can be a good addition to your physical therapy and exercise program. Our device improves blood and lymph flow and the medications prescribed by your doctor could cure your problem/symptom more effectively.
Q: Do I need to place the vibraphones exactly as shown in the manual?
Our device affects an area covering about two inches around the point of vibraphone placement. If you apply the vibraphones within one inch of the locations indicated on the manual, results should be satisfactory.
Q: I achieved good results with the initial treatment. Do I need to continue?
We recommend that you continue maintenance treatment after the initial improvement. The frequency of applications can vary according to the symptoms and can be done every two to four days.
Q: How long can I use Vitafon?
As long as you find it helpful.
Q: What is the best way to apply the vibraphones?
You can get best results when applying the vibraphones at a 90-degree angle. Most importantly, use the flattest part of your body part to achieve the tightest and fullest adhesion to your body. DO NOT place the vibraphones one against the other. For more accurate information see manual.
Q: When is the best time to use Vitafon?
It's defined by the application scheme in the operational manual.
Q: How long does it take to get better? Can my condition be cured with Vitafon?
The most of conditions which Vitafon can cure are chronic. Our device will help you. Most of our patients get better in three weeks to three months. For acute problems, results can come even faster. You may notice improvements or be cured with a few applications.
Q: Can Vitafon be used along with other types of treatment?
Vitafon is one of the options available to you. It can be a good addition to your physical therapy and exercise program. You can use this device in the comfort of your own home. It is simple and causes no side effects. This device improves blood and lymph flow in the treated area, and the medications prescribed by your doctor can reach the treated areas more efficiently, where they are needed the most.
Q: Am I going to suffer any side effects while using and/or after the use of Vitafon?
Since Vitafon works only in the area of application, there are no side effects if used as recommended in the manual.

In case of bruises - within 2 hours; in dislocation or sprain - 8-10 hours; in wounds - approximately in 24 hours.
Greetings, dear V.A. Fiodorov,
I have been using your Vitafon device for almost 2 years. To be exact, all my family (3 people) and the neighbours (2 people) have. The device is a great help for osteochondrosis, fractures, bruises, dislocations, sprains, sinus trouble, head colds and so on. It is especially good for us pensioners and invalids: you don't need to hang around hospitals, wait in long queues and swallow endless pills. In short, the Vitafon is a home doctor. Thank you for this wonder.

Dear Creators of the wonderful home doctor Vitafon,
In my letter I want to express my heart-felt thanks to all those who give people health. We bought a Vitafon before the New Year and in the short period of treatment with the Vitafon I sensed the disease losing its hold. The disease - as with many people - is osteochondrosis. I had agonizing pains at night, my hands went numb and I could not hold knitting-needles. In general a lot of things have changed in my organism. Breathing seems to have become easier and, despite being overweight, I have begun to feel light.
N.M.K.
Dear Vitafon staff,
I want to tell you that the vibro-acoustic Vitafon is a very good and useful device. I used it to treat the knee joints in both my legs. After the second session the pains disappeared entirely, while before going down stairs or getting off a bus was very difficult for me due to the severe pain. Sometime my right leg gave way under me. Now I can run, jump carry weights and walk several kilometres and no pain. Many thanks to you.
V.P.
