Abstract & Overview
Concern has been raised about whole-body vibration training (WBVT), which activates skeletal muscles by employing vibrations rather than a mass load or dynamic exercise. As vibration massage and local vibration applied to muscles show promising benefits, vibration treatment and exercise became widely used in rehab. Studies are still being conducted to fully comprehend the cumulative impacts and long-term safety of this training program. This study gives an outline of WBVT, explaining its physiology and advantages as well as some safety aspects, contraindications, and instructions for applying it in a clinical environment.
