Manual of Vibration Exercise and Vibration Therapy

Abstract

Mechanical vibrations, largely employed in sports training and clinical practice, are reported to exert stimulatory/inhibitory effects on several hormonal secretions. To date, the mechanisms underlying the effects of vibrations on the endocrine system require to be still clarified. The discordant findings in the literature are probably due to several confounding factors, such as the lack of consistent control conditions, heterogeneous study groups, and different experimental conditions (frequency, peak-to-peak displacement, peak acceleration, work time, rest time, periodicity per week, the number of bouts in a session, number of sessions, acute or cumulative effects, type of the vibrating platform or vibratory devices, posture of the individual on the platform, the time of blood samplings, etc.). The present chapter is aimed to analyze and discuss the main data from the literature on this topic, underlying also the need to understand the mechanisms responsible for the vibrations-dependent effects on the hormonal secretions in a better way. In this respect, further additional studies performed in well-standardized experimental conditions are requested.
