BoNT lowers muscle tension. In order to achieve sustained improvement, in many cases repeated injections and high doses of BoNT must be […]
Due to at least economic factors, there is a growing need for effective and simple therapies for the increasingly common musculoskeletal (MSK) disorders, such as in the case of osteoporosis. Vibrotherapy seems extremely promising, at least for some patients, where therapeutic vibration (TV)* is increasingly used to improve bone structure and muscle performance. However, this […]
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 […]
The aim of the study by Pakistani scientists from the University of Lahore was to determine the effect of vibrotherapy (whole body vibration, WBV) on gait in patients with the consequences of chronic stroke. Both after routine physiotherapy (RP) and after WBV, an improvement in mobility was observed compared to the state before the procedures […]
