I don't know if this is any help to you but my Dad is a mad vegetable grower,he alway's starts his plants off indoors,
then when he hardens them off,he let's the soil dry out,he then gentely crumbles the soil off the root's,before giving them a wash in
in a root stress reliever,he uses canna rhizotonic for this although he is unaware of that as i get it for him and put it in a different bottle,
he then places the plants in a well of cow shit and straw and stuff after a few days they always perk up and thrive!!

get a 10 gall tote filled with water, and put all the airstones you have in it. It should look like a rolling boil. Unpot your plants , and one by one, let them sit in the water. The bubbles will gently clean off the roots. Change water and repeat.

Dunno about shaking though,might be a bit much stress,
make sure to wear clean rubber gloves,meant to say that my dad
always does this in near dark conditions he reckons intense light
from any source can cause serious shock!!

You can take the plants, unpot them put the root ball in a bowl of clean room temp water and wash off the dirt gently, when you put them into the bubbler, add neuts right away. If you let the dirt dry out, the roots will dry out also and the plant will go into shock, gently swish the plants in the bowl of water and the dirt will come off the root mass.
