Is it Possible Vibration Machines Might Aid in the Recovery after an Injury?

 

Everyone sustains an injury at some point, whether they are training or not. So, can these ailments, regardless of how they occurred, be helped by using vibration exercise machines?

Sports physiotherapists and other rehabilitation specialists in the field of sports medicine were naturally curious to learn if vibration training may aid in their line of work and speed the healing process for athletes who had suffered injuries.

To learn more, they opted to run some controlled bearing vibration experiments.

 

Controlled research was done to determine the effects, if any, of vibration training on such ligament injuries, and many athletes who had been suffering from minor knee ligament ruptures were asked to take part.

 

As part of the study, participants were routinely asked to test and record their ability to move the affected body parts. To put it more plainly, the knee's range of motion and its capacity to move in various directions were measured and recorded

To begin, we had the athletes do a simple balancing test. They did this by standing barefoot on one leg at a time, with each leg's muscle activity measured separately

After completing the condition monitoring test, the torn ligaments exhibited remarkable recovery, especially in the posterior-anterior direction of movement.

 

Experts in the field of sports medicine were, of course, delighted by the results of the tests showing that vibration training can aid in the rehabilitation of a wide range of sports-related ailments.
