CP_WBVT Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Vibration groupExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
This group will receive vibration stimulation while standing on a side-alternating vibration platform. Vibration sessions will occur three times per week over four-weeks. Each session will include three-minutes of vibration followed by three-minutes rest, completing this sequence three times per session
Group II: Control groupActive Control1 Intervention
This group will not receive vibration, but will rather hear a recording of the vibration, while still standing on the vibration platform. Still, this group will receive this training three times per week over four-weeks with a similar three-minute rotation as the vibration group.
