Abstract
The mean intracompartmental pressure was lower when whole body vibration at 27 Hz was superimposed. Therefore, whole body vibration seems to be a possible tool to lower intracompartmental pressure. Further research is needed to confirm whether these findings are also applicable in patients, athletes, and in dynamic exercises.
