Whole body vibration may help elderly get up and go

NEW YORK, Jan 19:  When the elderly can’t exercise, stints on a vibrating platform may help older adults become slightly stronger, faster and more agile, according to a small short-term study. Exercise is the best option for good health in older age, lead author Alba GDomez Cabello told Reuters Health in an email. But for those unable to perform aerobic exercise, this vibration technique ‘could be an easy and quick treatment to improve physical fitness.’
