- Funded by The Children’s Hospital Charity this work was a collaboration between SHU, Sheffield Children’s Hospital and the University of Sheffield and looked at the influence of whole body vibration (WBV) on bone growth in healthy pre-pubertal boys. It was shown that five consecutive days of WBV increased bone formation, The work is on-going via funding from GrowMedTech.to explore the potential for identifying subjects more likely to benefit from vibration exercise-based interventions to increase bone mass in different disease states.
