Summary

Evaluate the therapeutic effect of Whole body vibration and Resistance training on strength of quadriceps post lower limb burn

Conditions

  • Lower Limb Burn
  • Muscle Weakness Condition

Interventions

DEVICE

whole body vibration

Standing in different static positions or exercising on a vibrating platform.The mechanical stimuli of vibration transmitted to the body and stimulate muscle spindles which activate the alpha motor neurons and initiates muscle contractions comparable to the ''tonic vibration reflex. The effect of WBV on the neuromuscular properties of skeletal muscles and spinal mechanisms is demonstrated by a decreased electromechanical delay.

OTHER

Resistance Exercise

Resistance training as a mode of exercise to promote several health benefits, including improvements in the muscle mass and strength of healthy adults.Resistance training, where muscles are required to contract against an opposing load, has been shown to be a beneficial form of rehabilitation in clinical populations prone to muscle wasting, providing stimuli to increase protein synthesis and muscle mass.
