Vibration Training for Patients With Chronic Stroke

Sponsor: CHIA-HUEI LIN, PhD

Summary

A 4-week program of vibration training in a seated position combined with conventional rehabilitation led to significant improvements in unaffected side lower limb muscle strength, functional recovery, quality of life, and self-esteem in patients with chronic stroke. No significant improvement was noted in affected side lower limb muscle strength. These findings highlight the integration of localized muscle vibration training into rehabilitation as a promising strategy for treating individuals with chronic stroke.
