- Increasing local blood circulation
- Muscle re-education
- Maintaining or increasing range of motion
Vibration Plate
Whole body vibration may refer to vibration training, also known as vibration therapy, biomechanical stimulation (BMS), and biomechanical oscillation (BMO), a training method employing low amplitude, low frequency mechanical stimulation to exercise musculoskeletal structures for the improvement of muscle strength, power, and flexibility. Vibration training has been advocated as a therapeutic method in the treatment of osteoporosis, sarcopenia and metabolic syndrome, and is used in the fitness industry, physical therapy, rehabilitation and professional sports applications.
Moist Heat and/or Cold Compresses
