Vibrating platforms reveal secrets of muscle reflexes
NCT ID NCT07386145
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how whole-body vibration (standing on a vibrating platform) activates muscles automatically. 40 healthy adults aged 20-40 tried different body positions and vibration speeds while muscle activity was recorded with skin sensors. The goal was to better understand how vibration affects nerves and muscles, which could help design better rehabilitation exercises. The procedures were painless and did not involve any medication or surgery.
