The SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19 currently has the most negative impact on the health, economy and lifestyle of people worldwide. Scientists are looking for vaccines and drugs, and, as in the presented research, analyze the possibility of mechanical impact on SARS-CoV-2 molecules in order to destroy them. An international team of engineers, including those […]
Prolonged exercise can damage muscles, resulting in pain, swelling and reduced strength. It has been previously shown that whole-body vibration therapy, applied in a standing position on a vibration platform, improves muscle regeneration. In this study, scientists from the University of Physical Education in Kraków (Poland) decided to test the effect of a milder form […]
The aim of presented research of Polish scientists from the University of Physical Education in Krakow and the Vitberg Research and Development Department was to analyze the impact of vibration massage on the process of muscle regeneration [reflected by the maximum force of isometric muscle contractions (Fmax)] after short-term intense physical exercise compared to the […]
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 […]
The number of women suffering from lipoedema is constantly increasing. Conservative therapy involves manual lymphatic drainage (MLD), but this physiotherapeutic method does not always help, and its effectiveness depends on the severity and history of the disease. In view of the reports on the positive effect of vibrotherapy in reducing edema, scientists from RECON (Research […]
The presented report describes a 52-year-old woman suffering from type 2 diabetes mellitus and peripheral neuropathy. The patient complained of sleep disturbances, pain and tingling in the feet, and constant stress related to the fear of falling during everyday walking. Since the treatment used did not help significantly, scientists from the University of Medical Sciences […]
One of the most serious complications of poorly treated diabetes is diabetic foot syndrome. It appears as the presence of an infected ulcer (wound) with features of neuropathy and impaired blood flow, which are not only the most important pathological factors leading to the formation of a foot ulcer, but also responsible for the deterioration […]
In order to increase the level of physical activity, a key strategy in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), whole-body vibration (WBV; a type of vibrotherapy), is increasingly being used. The beneficial effect of WBV on glycemic control and the quality of life with T2DM is described in the number of scientific reports, […]
Although type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is characterized by impaired carbohydrate metabolism with impaired glucose lowering, patients, especially the elderly, are at a risk of the treatment-induced hypoglycaemia. They often suffer also from falls and depressive symptoms. Research shows that exercise training has an extremely positive effect on functional performance, glycemic control and mental well-being […]
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the leading cause of chronic liver disease worldwide, and insulin resistance is a major contributor to the development of fatty liver disease. Previous studies have shown that treating insulin resistance can be achieved through aerobic or resistive exercise training. However, it is not clear what training protocol could be […]
