[Certain aspects of combined vibration training for the treatment of neurological manifestations of osteochondrosis in the lumbar spine region].

The physical rehabilitation of the patients presenting with neurological manifestations of osteochondrosis in the lumbar spine region remains a challenging problem due to the high prevalence of this condition. Vibration training in the form of graduated vibration impacts was shownto induce muscular stimulation, activate metabolic processes by promoting microcirculation, stimulate operation of the complex proprioceptive apparatus with a rise in the energy level of the gamma-system, and lead to the development of long-term post-activation alterations in the muscular fibers. These observations give reason to consider vibration therapy as a most promising method for the combined treatment of a variety of diseases affecting human subjects. We have developed a set of exercises for the vibration platform training consisting of three main parts (preparative, basic, and concluding components).
