Effect of focal muscle vibration on sEMG activity during repeated elbow movements in healthy adults. [PDF]
Background Focal muscle vibration (FMV) is a non-invasive intervention that can modulate neuromuscular excitability, traditionally assessed with electrostimulation-evoked responses like F-waves or H-reflexes, which can be uncomfortable and impractical ...
