Article Synopsis
- Osteoporosis is a common issue in older adults, often developing slowly without notable symptoms, and this study aimed to see if adding whole body vibration (WBV) or magnetic therapy to standard treatments could improve bone mineral density (BMD).
- Eighty-five participants aged 60-75 were split into three groups: two groups received standard pharmacological treatments with one also undergoing WBV and the other magnetic therapy, while the third group received only the standard treatment.
- Results showed that both WBV and magnetic therapy significantly improved BMD compared to pharmacological treatment alone, with no substantial difference in effectiveness between the two therapies.
