A recent article in the online journal Canadian Chiropractor outlines vibration exercise therapy and discusses the methods for evaluating a vibration exercise machine.
Dr. Jaspar Sidhu D.C. has provided some insights into the world of whole body vibration from a wellness professional’s perspective. According to Sidhu, “With its many benefits for the patient population, it’s no surprise that vibration exercise therapy is one of the fastest growing modalities in the chiropractic and physiotherapy profession.”
Sidhu’s article cites the following as some of benefits of whole body vibration exercise as:
- Faster strength gains through neurological adaption
- Shorter training times per session
- Patient populations that have been shown to benefit include those suffering from multiple sclerosis, fibromyalgia, spinal cord injury, osteoporosis, and Parkinson’s Disease, to name a few
