The aim of the presented research was to assess the impact of a 5-week whole body vibration (WBV) training with different vibration parameters on factors regulating blood coagulability. The level of plasma fibrinogen (responsible for the increase in coagulation) and plasminogen (favoring the dissolution of blood clots), as well as tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) and […]
Whole-body vibration training (WBVT; a type of vibrotherapy) is often used in addition to conventional physical training, to improve skeletal muscle strength in both sports and rehabilitation. Recent studies have also shown that WBVT can be a useful form of exercise for improving cardiovascular function in the elderly and weak. However, the mechanisms underlying the […]
Nowadays there is still a great need to improve non-invasive techniques to restore proper circulation after a heart attack. Low frequency vibrations have previously been observed to help clear blood clots in catheter systems and also to stimulate the coronary circulation if delivered to the heart in the diastolic phase. In a presented article, scientists […]
{The beneficial effect of whole-body vibration on fitness seems to be well-established in the literature, while its influence on the psyche is still under investigation. Therapeutic vibrations can be generated in several ways, for example: manually (by a physiotherapist) or by mechanical wave, including a sound wave. Editorial note} The aim of Japanese scientists from […]
It is widely accepted that physical activity is an effective therapeutic strategy in preventing and inhibiting the development of cardiovascular diseases. Recently, in the context of rehabilitation of the elderly, attention has been drawn to a specific “substitute” of physical activity – vibrotherapy. Whole body vibration (WBV) has the potential to replace physical activity by […]
The elderly need an appropriate rehabilitation program and physioprophylaxis so the aging process went off in a satisfactory way. Vibration training uses a vibrational mechanical stimulus which affects metabolic processes and health like other forms of physical activity. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of 30 vibration treatments on body fat, […]
