Effect of Wearable Vibration Therapy on Muscle Soreness, Joint Position Sense and Dynamic Balance

Öz

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of wearable local vibration therapy (VT) on muscle soreness, joint position sense, and dynamic balance in recovery after squat exercise. Twenty males (age: 22.25±1.97 years) participated in the study. Muscle soreness, joint position sense, and dynamic balance were evaluated before exercise, 24 and 48 hours after exercise. All participants performed six sets of 10 repetitions of squat exercises. VT was applied to one thigh of the participants randomly for 10 minutes after exercise, and the other thigh was determined as the control. The muscle soreness increased significantly for VT (p<.001) and control (p=.014) at 24 hours after exercise. However, there were no significant differences 48 hours after exercise for both conditions (p>.05). No significant difference was found between VT and control (p>0.05). No significant difference was found after exercise at knee joint position sense for both conditions (p>.05). No significant difference was observed between VT and control (p>.05). There was a significant difference between before exercise and 48 hours after exercise at anterior direction of the modified Star Excursion Balance Test for VT (p=.033). A significant difference was found between before exercise and 24 hours after exercise at posteromedial (p=.012) direction for VT. There was only significant difference at posteromedial (p=.028) direction at 24 hours after exercise between VT and control. The wearable local VT after squat exercise did not affect muscle soreness and knee joint position sense. However, local VT contributed to the improvement of dynamic balance.

Giyilebilir Vibrasyon Terapisinin Kas Ağrısı, Eklem Pozisyon Hissi ve Dinamik Denge Üzerine Etkisi

Öz

Bu çalışmanın amacı, giyilebilir lokal vibrasyon terapisinin (VT) squat egzersizi sonrası toparlanmada kas ağrısı, eklem pozisyon hissi ve dinamik denge üzerine etkilerini araştırmaktır. Çalışmaya 20 erkek (yaş: 22,25±1,97 yıl) katıldı. Egzersiz öncesi, egzersizden 24 ve 48 saat sonra kas ağrısı, eklem pozisyon hissi ve dinamik denge değerlendirildi. Tüm katılımcılar 10 tekrar, 6 set squat egzersizi yaptı. Katılımcıların bir uyluğuna egzersiz sonrası 10 dakika rastgele VT uygulandı ve diğer uyluğu kontrol olarak belirlendi. Kas ağrısı egzersizden 24 saat sonra VT (p<,001) ve kontrol (p=,014) için anlamlı olarak arttı. Ancak egzersizden 48 saat sonra her iki durum için anlamlı fark yoktu (p>,05). VT ile kontrol arasında anlamlı fark bulunmadı (p>,05). Egzersiz sonrası diz eklem pozisyon hissinde her iki durum için anlamlı fark bulunmadı (p>,05). VT ile kontrol arasında anlamlı bir fark gözlenmedi (p>,05). VT için modifiye Yıldız Denge Testinin anterior yönde egzersiz öncesi ve egzersiz sonrası 48 saat arasında anlamlı bir fark vardı (p=,033). VT için posteromedial yönde egzersiz öncesi ile egzersiz sonrası 24 saat arasında anlamlı fark bulundu (p=,012). VT ve kontrol arasında egzersizden 24 saat sonra sadece posteromedial yönde (p=,028) anlamlı fark vardı. Squat egzersizi sonrası giyilebilir lokal VT, kas ağrısını ve diz eklemi pozisyon hissini etkilemedi. Ancak lokal VT, dinamik dengenin gelişmesine katkı sağladı.
