So, naturally, I had to forward her the link (thanks!) <BR/><BR/>I actually had a great-aunt in Texas who had one of those vibrabelt things in her home, back in the dark days of the 70s. What I had been told was that the jiggle and jostle was supposed to break down the fat cells so they can either reabsorb through the body or flushed out. Of course, I was maybe all of seven at the time and my mom was rolling her eyes into the back of her head behind my aunt when she was talking about it. So take that as you will *wry smile*<BR/><BR/>I should also mention I have a teenager and a preteen.

When I was little, back in the 1950s, my great-aunt had one of them for a short while in her business school, alongside the mimeographs. I was too short to try it out--the belt would have been on the back of my head--and when we got home from vacation at my grandmother's I saw the washing machine spinning itself and said "Hmmm."
