Bone Myoregulation Reflex in Senile Osteoporosis

The subjects were first asked to jump in place 20 times, as if they were jumping rope. Then, whole-body vibration was applied. While the participants stood upright on the whole-body vibration device, low-amplitude (1.2 mm) vibrations were applied at eight different frequencies (25, 27, 29, 31, 33, 35, 37, 39 Hz), each lasting for 10 seconds, with a 5-second rest period in between. The Achilles tendon will be percussed 10 times with an electronic reflex hammer.
