whole body vibration
The children and young adults will receive the WBVT when standing still on a vibration platform of 20 Hertz and a peak-to-peak amplitude of 2 mm: sessions will be 18 minutes in length, 4 days per week for 4 weeks. Assessments will be performed at baseline and at completion of the intervention to examine the functional abilities of these children and young adults. The vibration frequency, duration and amplitude will be progressively increased over 2 weeks to the maximum of 3 minutes of 20 Hz with a peak-to-peak amplitude of 2mm.
