The system provides sufficient vibration to the user while reducing the load on the vibration generator and other equipment. [Solution] The vibration device 3 applies vibration to a muscle while the internal pressure of that muscle is increased compared to the normal state. This makes the state equivalent to applying vibration to the muscle with an amplitude corresponding to the increase (hereinafter referred to as the added amount).

As a result, even if the amplitude of the actual mechanical vibration is small, the physical stimulus acting on each receptor in the muscle and tendon becomes larger. Consequently, the load on the vibration device that generates the vibration can be reduced.
