Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of whole body vibration therapy on bone mineral density and leg muscle strength in older adults: a systematic review and meta-analysis
TL;DR: Whole body vibration is beneficial for enhancing leg muscle strength among older adults, however, the review suggests that whole body vibration has no overall treatment effect on bone mineral density in older women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physical exercise improves strength, balance, mobility, and endurance in people with cognitive impairment and dementia: a systematic review
TL;DR: People with various levels of cognitive impairment can benefit from supervised multi-modal exercise for about 60minutes a day, 2 to 3 days a week to improve physical function and quality of life.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of whole body vibration on muscle spasticity for people with central nervous system disorders: a systematic review
TL;DR: There is insufficient evidence to support or refute the notion that whole-body vibration can reduce spasticity in stroke, spinocerebellar ataxia or multiple sclerosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Whole-Body Vibration Intensities in Chronic Stroke: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
TL;DR: The addition of the 30-session WBV paradigm to the leg exercise protocol was no more effective in enhancing body functions/structures, activity, and participation than leg exercises alone in chronic stroke patients with mild to moderate motor impairments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Psychometric properties of dual-task balance assessments for older adults: a systematic review.
TL;DR: Among the dual-task balance assessments examined, the reliability and validity varied, and should be useful in guiding the selection of dual- task balance measures in future research.
