Abstract

Vibratory stimulation holds promise of becoming a useful therapeutic tool in the treatment of motor disorders. The benefits of vibratory treatment are predictable on the basis of current knowledge about the neurophysiological mechanisms underlying the motor effects of vibration. Actual results of vibratory treatment are described for patients with a wide variety of motor disorders. The importance of attending to practical details such as the proper selection of both stimulus parameters and patients is stressed. Specific recommendations are offered for learning to use vibratory stimulation effectively safely, and intelligently.
