In rehabilitation medicine, the therapeutic application of vibration energy in specific clinical treatments and in sport rehabilitation is being affirmed by a growing number of medical professionals. Clinical applications of mechanical vibrations exist in a variety of forms: mechanical vibrations, ultrasound therapy, extracorporeal shock waves therapy and Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) magnetic field therapy, for example. Each mode of therapy has a specific mechanism of action, dose and indication. However, the enormous potential of vibrations as therapy (understood as ESWT, mechanical vibration, ultrasounds, ELF) have yet to be explored in depth in both the experimental and in the clinical setting. The Mechanical Vibration: Therapeutic Effects and Applications is a monograph that presents basic information about vibrational therapy and its clinical applications. Readers will find information about the mathematical, physical and biomolecular models that make the foundation of vibrational therapy, applied mechanical vibrations in different form (whole body, ultrasound and extracorporeal shock waves) as well as an update on vibrational therapy in general. This monograph is a useful resource for medical professionals and researchers seeking information about the basics of vibrational therapy.

This book addresses the practical aspects of vibration exercise and vibration therapy. In addition, it describes the technical and physiological background, providing applied scientists and doctors with a deeper understanding of the therapeutic potential that vibration exercise holds. Having first emerged two decades ago, vibration exercise has since established itself as a widespread form of physical exercise, used in all rehabilitation areas. The goal of this book is to close the gap between scientific knowledge and practice. Given that occupational exposure to vibration leads to well-known unfavorable effects, the book is also dedicated to potential risks, hazards and contra-indications and of course, the application of vibration therapy in a number of specific conditions is presented in a clinically usable fashion. Given its breadth of coverage, this book will be of interest to physiotherapists and exercise scientists, but also to a wider range of physicians working in the field of rehabilitation.

Excerpt from Mechanical Vibration: Its Physiological Application in Therapeutics During the past decade the attention of both the profession and the laity has been directed to drugless therapy, in consequence of which each year sees an advance in physical therapeutics, one of the most valuable agents of which is mechanical vibration. It has an extensive field of therapeutic application of which spinal stimulation and inhibition constitute no small part. In the hands of a skilled operator it relieves patients who would otherwise fall into the hands of medical faddists and fakirs, who succeed in obtaining a clientele for two reasons-first because they employ drugless methods, which the laity are demanding, and second because they have sometimes effected cures, -which can be accomplished much more promptly and thoroughly in the hands of a scientific physician who understands physical therapeutics. Its use is indicated in only a particular class of cases, those which give massage and osteopathy their prestige. This work is written to call attention to the fundamental principles of mechanical vibration, the understanding of which enhances its therapeutics not only in the present knowledge of the subject, but looking to the important field which will be opened to it in the future.
