NCT03455036 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 20

Last updated 2019-07-10

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Intense itch on the legs sometimes associated with redness can be adverse effects of whole body vibration (WBV) according to own observations and numerous posts in non-professional online-blogs. To the investigators' knowledge, the appearance of itch and/or a rash during WBV exercise has not yet been described.

The research objectives are:

1. To determine the effect of WBV on itch rating and its unpleasantness and on skin changes.
2. To determine the effect of WBV on immunoglobulin E (IgE) and serum tryptase
