CASE STUDY: JAPAN

Turtlegym Across Japanese Eldercare

Turtlegym equipment was developed in Kyoto, Japan in 2011, specifically designed for elderly rehabilitation. Since then, it has been adopted across hundreds of facilities throughout the country.

Types of Facilities Using Turtlegym in Japan:

  • Nursing Homes — Long-term residential care facilities providing daily rehabilitation opportunities for residents
  • Hospital Rehabilitation Departments — Acute and post-acute rehabilitation services incorporating Turtlegym into patient protocols
  • Day Care Centres for Elderly — Community-based day programmes offering structured exercise sessions
  • Senior Wellness Centres — Public and private facilities focused on healthy ageing and fall prevention

Why Japanese Facilities Adopted Turtlegym:

Japan faces the world’s most advanced ageing population. Facilities needed equipment that:
 
  • Could serve frail, limited-mobility users safely
  • Required minimal staff supervision
  •  Provided measurable, consistent movement stimulus
  •  Was specifically designed for elderly—not adapted from general fitness equipment

Turtlegym met these needs and has become a trusted solution across the Japanese eldercare sector.

NOTABLE DEPLOYMENT

ASICS Japan — Trias Wellness Facility

ASICS, the global sportswear company, operates Trias—a wellness facility in Japan focused on healthy ageing and senior fitness. Turtlegym equipment is part of their offering.
About Trias:
ASICS developed Trias as a response to Japan’s ageing society, creating a space where older adults can maintain fitness and quality of life. The facility combines multiple approaches to senior wellness, including specialised equipment designed for elderly users.

Why This Matters:

When a global brand like ASICS—known for sports science and athletic performance—chooses Turtlegym for their senior wellness facility, it validates the technology’s credibility and effectiveness.

ASICS could have chosen any equipment in the world. They chose solutions designed specifically for elderly populations.

Relevance for Singapore:

This deployment demonstrates that Turtlegym isn’t just for basic care facilities—it’s appropriate for premium wellness environments focused on active ageing.
 

CASE STUDY: TAIWAN

Turtlegym Expansion into Taiwan

Following success in Japan, Turtlegym equipment has been adopted across Taiwan’s eldercare and senior fitness sectors.

Notable Taiwan Deployments:

Taipei DaTong Sports Center:

A major public sports facility in Taipei has integrated Turtlegym equipment into its senior fitness programmes. This government-backed centre serves thousands of elderly residents, demonstrating institutional confidence in the technology.

Day Care Centres:

Community-based day care centres across Taiwan have adopted Turtlegym for structured elderly exercise programmes, providing daily movement opportunities for participants.

Rehabilitation Clinics:

Private rehabilitation providers use Turtlegym as part of their elderly rehabilitation protocols, complementing traditional physiotherapy approaches.

Why Taiwan Adoption Matters:

Taiwan, like Japan, faces significant population ageing. The adoption of Turtlegym across both countries—by both public institutions and private providers—demonstrates the technology’s versatility and acceptance in Asian healthcare markets.

Singapore shares similar demographic challenges and cultural context. What works in Japan and Taiwan is directly relevant here.

Global Presence:

BGREEN equipment is used by individuals, wellness centres, and healthcare providers internationally. The technology has been refined through years of real-world feedback and continuous improvement.

Singapore Partnership:

Vibrahealth is the exclusive Singapore partner for BGREEN sport furniture, bringing this proven technology to local consumers and healthcare providers with full local support.
 

Why This Matters for Singapore

Singapore faces similar demographic challenges to Japan and Taiwan:
  • Rapidly ageing population — By 2030, 1 in 4 Singaporeans will be 65 or older
  • Increasing demand for eldercare — Facilities and home care providers need scalable solutions
  • Limited caregiver resources — Solutions that don’t require intensive supervision are essential
  • Cultural context — Asian approaches to elderly care and family involvement
The proven adoption of Turtlegym and BGREEN in Japan and Taiwan isn’t just encouraging—it’s directly relevant. These markets have already solved problems Singapore is now facing.

Vibrahealth's Role:

We bring these proven solutions to Singapore with local presence, local support, and local accountability. You’re not dealing with overseas suppliers—you’re partnering with a Singapore-based company that understands local needs.
When you choose Vibrahealth, you’re choosing technology that’s already been validated across hundreds of facilities serving populations just like yours.
 

The Evidence for Passive Movement Technology

Real-World Adoption

500+ facilities in Japan alone use Turtlegym. BGREEN equipment is deployed across multiple countries. This isn’t experimental—it’s established.

Scientific Literature

Whole body vibration has been studied extensively, with research published in peer-reviewed journals covering rehabilitation, elderly care, and sports medicine.

Proven Over Time

Turtlegym has operated since 2011. BGREEN has over 15 years of R&D. These aren’t startups—they’re mature technology providers with track records.
Note: Deployment examples describe general adoption patterns. Specific outcomes vary by facility and implementation. Vibrahealth makes no guarantees about results. Equipment is for wellness purposes, not medical treatment.
 

JOIN THE NETWORK

Bring Proven Technology to Singapore

Hundreds of facilities across Japan and Taiwan already trust Turtlegym and BGREEN equipment. Now this technology is available in Singapore through Vibrahealth.

Whether you’re a physiotherapy clinic, nursing home, hospital, or day care centre—let’s discuss how we can support your facility.
 

Questions About Our Case Studies

Q1: What's the difference between WBVV and WBPA?
We don’t currently arrange facility visits abroad, but we can provide additional documentation and references about deployments in Japan and Taiwan. For hands-on experience, we recommend visiting our Wellness Lounge in Singapore or arranging a demonstration at your facility.
 
Q2: Are there facilities using this equipment in Singapore yet?
Vibrahealth has recently launched in Singapore, and we’re actively building our network of partners. We’re in discussions with physiotherapy clinics, eldercare facilities, and corporate wellness providers. Contact us if you’re interested in being among the first Singapore adopters.
 
Q3: What results have facilities in Japan achieved?
Facilities in Japan report that the equipment is well-received by residents and integrates smoothly into care programmes. However, specific outcome data varies by facility and we don’t have access to detailed clinical results from individual deployments. We recommend evaluating the equipment based on your own facility’s needs and patient population.
 
 
 
Q4: Is this equipment approved by any health authorities?
BGREEN equipment is wellness equipment, not a regulated medical device. It doesn’t require health authority approval for wellness use. Turtlegym is positioned as rehabilitation and fitness equipment for elderly. As with any equipment used in healthcare settings, facilities should conduct their own due diligence regarding suitability for their specific applications.
 
Q5: How can I learn more about the technology?
BGREEN equipment uses gentle, controlled vibrations—typically between 5 and 30 Hz for WBVV, and 1 to 3 Hz for WBPA. These are relatively low frequencies designed for comfort and safety. The intensity is much gentler than industrial equipment or high-powered gym machines. Most people find the sensation pleasant and easy to get used to.
