Vibration Effect on Some Tissues Biomechanical Models

In the last decade the vibrations of the whole body(WBV) is the very frequent method of usual neuromuscular training with a wide spread in health or fitness centers and with tendencies to replace the training and the conventional therapy, both in physical therapy and in sports, in order to increase the strength and muscular power. This development is due to the fact that the effects of low amplitude and low frequency vibrations have been found to lead to the development of leg muscle strength, bone strengthening by increasing bone density or improving neuromotor problems. At the same time, the industry has offered, at an affordable price, a wide variety of vibrating platforms, with wide possibilities to adjust the amplitude, the duration of exposure and the frequency of the vibrating movements. This paper tries to explain the biomechanical explanation of the phenomenon of relaxation of the stress state in the muscle-tendon complex after the treatment with vibrations of the whole body. For this purpose, several biomechanical models were analyzed which, following the vibrations of the whole body and after analyzing the response to these stimuli, lead to results that can encourage various experiments.
