A study of the effect of vibrotherapy, applied in the supine position (vibration carrier: RAM Vitberg+ apparatus, Metabolism module, F Metabolism programme), on the lipid metabolism of the human body. The aim of the study was to indicate the interdependence of the components of the lipid profile, as a factor influencing the condition of the […]

Treatment of osteoporotic bones after fractures is difficult due to osteoporotic disorders of bone formation, angiogenesis and bone mineralization, negatively influencing the healing. Since previous preclinical (animal) studies have shown that low-magnitude high-frequency vibration (LMHFV) accelerates the healing of osteoporotic fractures, researchers at the Chinese University of Hong Kong planned to study the effect of […]
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 […]
In the treatment of osteoporosis, among others, calcium and vitamin D supplementation, as well as physical exercise are used. Recently, a passive form of physical activity – whole-body vibration (WBV) – has gained attention in this context. Since WBV can be very beneficial in terms of ease of implementation and accessibility even for weakened patients […]
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 […]
