Exploring Optimal Intervention Methods for Whole-Body Vibration Training in Stroke Patients: A Scoping Review
Abstract
The objective of this scoping review is to identify, map, and synthesize existing evidence on physiotherapy interventions using whole-body vibration (WBV) in individuals with cerebrovascular accident (stroke), with a particular focus on variations in exercise protocols. This review aims to clarify how differences in WBV parameters and training conditions relate to functional recovery and motor performance outcomes, and to identify knowledge gaps to inform future research and clinical application.
