An important therapeutic element in osteoporosis is physical activity, which has a positive effect on muscle strength, balance and bone mineral density (BMD). For those who cannot perform intense exercise and do not want/ cannot use pharmacotherapy, whole-body vibration (WBV), a form of vibrotherapy, can help. WBV is an easy-to-use substitute for physical activity in […]

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the leading causes of death in humans. An important element of pulmonary rehabilitation is the training of peripheral muscles that stimulates the cardiovascular and musculoskeletal systems. Unfortunately, standard resistance exercises or training on a treadmill carry a risk of acute dyspnea or hypoxemia. Research shows that whole-body […]

Whole-body vibration training (WBVT) has great potential in the rehabilitation of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), positively affecting physical fitness. This may be due to the beneficial action on balance. This hypothesis was tested by German scientists from the University of Marburg, the Technical University of Munich and the Schön Klinik Berchtesgadener Land, […]

Local/ focal muscle vibration (FMV) is a non-invasive technique that in various studies has shown a positive effect on upper limb spasticity after stroke. However, different protocols used do not allow for comparisons between studies. It is still unclear, for example, whether agonistic or antagonistic muscles should be treated with local vibrotherapy to obtain better […]

Early tissue repair is accompanied by an inflammatory reaction, which can prevent infection at the site of injury and promote wound healing. However, it also carries a risk of complications. When the vocal folds (VF) heals, it can at worst lead to persistent dysphonia due to scarring of the VF. That’s why it is so […]

The aim of the presented report was to compare the hormonal responses of cortisol (C) and testosterone (T) during maximum graded aerobic cycling exercise: with vibration (Vib) vs without vibration (noVib). It was directed to sports experts planning the regeneration process or the time/ type of activity during training and competition. Moreover, having clinical implications […]

The aim of Turkish scientists was to compare the effects of treadmill training (TT) vs TT + whole-body vibration training (WBVT) on the attention, executive dysfunction, quality of life and severity of ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) symptoms. By the end of the training programs, all traits tested had improved significantly after both TT or […]

Short-term whole body vibration (WBV) increases neuromuscular activation. Among the responsible mechanisms, the desensitization (reduction of sensitivity to excitation) of muscle spindles by local vibrations is postulated. In addition, it is believed that local vibrations, as well as WBV, contribute to a permanent reduction in the excitability of the spinal cord. This may be due […]

Chemotherapy is often associated with the deterioration of the functional efficiency of cancer patients, which may generate additional undesirable health problems. Physiotherapy based on resistance exercise, which can prevent these health problems, is not always tolerated by patients due to the physiological side effects of chemotherapy. Vibrotherapy can help here as a “non-invasive” physiotherapeutic technique […]

In addition to its positive effects on strengthening immunity, exercise can help reduce the negative effects of pandemic stress and, if properly used, can have a significant impact on the mental health of many people around the world. In most countries, however, there is still a serious lack of will to create appropriate physical exercise […]
