The Positive Impact of iBoost Sessions on Diabetes: A Fibromyalgia & Parkinson’s Case
We’re excited to share the positive outcomes from a single weekly KineDek session for a client known to have been exercise intolerant we’ll call Ms. D, who suffers from both diabetes and fibromyalgia. She additionally has Parkinson's disease.
- Stabilization of Blood Pressure: After her first session, Ms. D’s blood pressure stabilized at around 134/85 for the entire week. Her daughter, a medical doctor, corroborated these readings five days later. Notably, Ms. D was hypertensive on the day of the session, with initial readings around 190/110 (two readings taken). Her blood pressure has remained stable without any increase. Her latest reading taken by her daughter is 125/72.
- Significant Pain Reduction: Ms. D experienced a substantial decrease in pain throughout her body.
- Reduction in Numbness: Her tactile ability returned in her feet and toes, alleviating the numbness she had been experiencing.
- Lifting of Brain Fog: She reported a noticeable improvement in mental clarity, often referred to as “brain fog.”
- Normalized Sugar Levels: After her 3rd session, Ms. D’s average blood sugar levels significantly reduced and stabilized without major spikes, even after consuming sugary or high-carb foods. Her previous average was around 8 to 9, with peaks up to 14. Following her third session on 26-08-2024, her levels averaged between 6 and 7, with a peak of 9 after sugar consumption. This is generally within a healthy range as opposed to her previous levels. Her latest reading is 5.4 taken 19-10-2024. Ms. D continues to remain on insulin until her current condition is reviewed by her specialist diabetes doctor.
Despite Ms. D’s fibromyalgia, her sessions are not
strenuous, yet we still achieve the desired outcomes. At the time of this post,
Ms. D has completed three sessions. These improvements were evident after just
the first session. While some pain returned by the next session, it was not as
severe, and the pain levels continued to progressively decrease with each session.
Based on these outcomes, Vekta asserts that a minimum of one
20-minute KineDek session per week, utilizing our proprietary AI-CRT
technology, is all that is necessary to maintain good health and well-being in
most cases. These sessions, often referred to as "getting an iBoost,"
are designed for short duration with maximum physiological impact. No clothing
change is required, and no exercise-induced pain or stiffness is experienced,
making it ideal for individuals like Ms. D who suffer from autoimmune diseases
such as fibromyalgia, which can make other types of physical activity nearly
impossible.
Ms. D was referred to us by a diabetic specialist from a
leading diabetes clinic in Cape Town, who had previously witnessed the positive
results in the Denise Tillock case.

How Fibromyalgia Complicates Diabetes
Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, and tenderness throughout the body. It often includes symptoms such as sleep disturbances, cognitive difficulties ("fibro fog"), and heightened sensitivity to pain. For diabetes patients, fibromyalgia adds an additional layer of complication, particularly when it comes to the recommended exercise and physical activity crucial for managing blood sugar levels.
Exercise is known to improve insulin sensitivity, which is vital for managing diabetes. However, for those with fibromyalgia, exercise can be a double-edged sword. While physical activity can help reduce insulin resistance, exercise that increases pain and inflammation may exacerbate fibromyalgia symptoms, making it even harder to maintain a consistent routine. This can lead to a vicious cycle where the very activities that could improve diabetes management become sources of additional pain and discomfort.
The chronic pain and fatigue associated with fibromyalgia can make it incredibly challenging for diabetes patients to engage in regular physical activity, leading to potential difficulties in maintaining optimal blood sugar control and overall health. Moreover, there appears to be a physiological connection between diabetes and fibromyalgia, as insulin resistance may also play a role in fibromyalgia, further complicating the management of both conditions.
Disclaimer: The above has been feedback from the personal experiences of an individual who have used the KineDek. These accounts are individual to each person and are not to be taken as a guarantee that others will experience the same outcomes. The KineDek is not presented as a cure for any condition. Rather, it serves as an enabler for exercise, particularly for those who may otherwise find traditional forms of exercise challenging or painful. Through its AI-enabled Compensating Resistance Technology (AI-CRT), the KineDek allows individuals to engage in physical activity without perceived pain, strain, or subsequent inflammation. Consequently, users can enjoy the well-documented benefits of "Exercise as Medicine." If you have a serious medical condition, always consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new exercise regimen.
