Clinical applications of vibration therapy in orthopaedic practice [PDF]

open access: yesMuscles, Ligaments and Tendons Journal, 2016
Vibration therapy (VT) has been proposed as an option to improve physical performance and reduce the negative effects of ageing on bone, muscles and tendons. Several discrepancies exist on the type of applications, frequency and magnitude. These differences reflex on the contradictory clinical results in literature. Aim of the present study is to carry

Developing a new focal vibration and heat therapy system

open access: yesCurrent Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2023
Vibrational heating therapy is a type of physical therapy that uses the application of heat and vibrations to stimulate the body’s healing process. The therapy is believed to promote circulation, reduce inflammation, and relieve muscle tension.

Transient vibration analysis of a completely free plate using modes obtained by Gorman's superposition method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This paper shows that the transient response of a plate undergoing flexural vibration can be calculated accurately and efficiently using the natural frequencies and modes obtained from the superposition method.

Vibration Therapy for Health Promotion

open access: yes, 2022
Vibration therapy has been used as a clinical intervention, in which mechanical vibration is transmitted to a part or to the whole body of the individual. It is very important to point out that mechanical vibration is a natural stimulus that is part of the daily life of all living beings and is periodically added to the organism due to a movement of ...

Vibration as an exercise modality: how it may work, and what its potential might be [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Whilst exposure to vibration is traditionally regarded as perilous, recent research has focussed on potential benefits. Here, the physical principles of forced oscillations are discussed in relation to vibration as an exercise modality.

Assessment of the Effectiveness of Vibration Therapy and Passive Rest on the Recovery of Muscular Strength and Plasma Lactate Levels in the Upper Limbs after Intense Anaerobic Exercise in Elite Boxers and Kickboxers

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Background: High-intensity anaerobic physical training frequently leads to muscle fatigue among boxers and kickboxers. Vibrational therapy (VT) and passive rest (PR) have been employed as methods to enhance muscular recovery and performance.
