First of its kind mechanism of action
Vibrant uses gentle vibrations to stimulate the colon mechanically, causing a local effect on natural peristalsis.
The colon’s biological clock appears to be altered in patients with chronic idiopathic constipation
Vibrant’s timed stimulation is optimized to deliver vibrations based on these alterations, which helps the colon contract mechanically in synch with its biological clock.
Using Vibrant is simple!
1. Activate
The patient places the capsule in the pod for an automatic activation
2. Ingest
The patient swallows the capsule with a glass of water
3. Synchronize
Vibrant synchronizes the biological clock, enabling the body to resume natural bowel movements
4. Monitor
The patient follows & monitors the treatment using Vibrant app, for best experience
