Tiny study asks if vibration training benefits last in kids with CP
NCT ID NCT04961749
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether improvements in walking from a 4-week whole-body vibration training program are kept 3 months later in children with cerebral palsy. Only 1 child took part, so results are very limited. The goal was to measure walking speed and distance before and after training, and again after a 3-month break.
