Vibrational Therapy - dates back to the 19th century and is used in many applications today. Vibration can be done by hand, singing bowls or an electronic
device. The targeted body part or muscle is generally massaged using
light to firm pressure by hand or an
electronic device is placed on the affected area.
Vibrational therapy can be applied to any part of the body that can
receive massage strokes. The Ohio State University Medical Center recommends using vibration as a method of pain relief that doesn’t involve drugs. Vibration helps relieve painful conditions by creating
numbness in the afflicted area. Light vibration can be performed before a sporting event to stimulate
the blood flow and leave the athlete feeling a sense of energy. Vibration can also help relax muscles
and tissues surrounding the painful site, which can further reduce the pain and help reduce scar tissue.
