Application of Vibration Training 

 

Since the early 1960s, vibration stimulation has been used in medical 
rehabilitation to stimulate and induce the activation of the muscle 
proprioceptors. The contractions caused by this stimulation help restore 
normal muscle function. In the field of rehabilitation vibration is being 
used on patients to help relieve muscle stress, repair and restore range 
of motion, osteoporosis prevention, improve blood circulation, 
metabolism and improve the autonomic nervous system. 
 
 
Initially, the concept behind vibration training had its roots in East 
Germany with a technique called Rhythmic Neuromuscular Stimulation 
(RNS). This science was later embraced and developed by Russian 
scientists to combat the growing issue of osteoporosis.   
 
 
Since osteoporosis and muscular atrophy were both noted in Russia’s 
cosmonauts the Russian space agency used vibration training to combat 
the effects of the zero gravity environment of space. (Because there is 
no gravitational force in space, muscles and bones are not loaded 
leading to bone loss and muscle atrophy.) The results of vibration 
training on the cosmonauts were very significant including improved 
muscular strength, increased bone density and preventing osteoporosis.   
 
 
In 1970s Russia used vibration training on elite athletes to improve 
muscle strength and endurance. The performance gains on these 
athletes had been significant through this new mode of training and 
hence the beginning of vibration training in sports. Since than there have 
been continued studies on the effects of vibration training. (Please refer 
to the documents and experiment data in the addendum).
