Objective:To observe any effect of low-frequency whole body resonant stimulation on the ba-lance and walking ability of hemiplegic stroke survivors.Methods:Sixty-six stroke survivors with hemiplegia were randomly divided into a low-frequency resonance training group, a high-frequency vibration training group and a control group, each of 22. All received routine exercise training at individualized intensities. All three groups underwent five 1-minute cycles of 7Hz, 15Hz or 1Hz stimulation twice a day, five days a week for eight weeks. Before and after the intervention, balance and walking ability were evaluated using the Berg Balance Scale, the timed up and go test and a 10m walking test. Step length, step frequency and step speed were also measured.Results:There were no significant differences among the three groups before the training. Afterward, significant improvement was observed in all of the groups in terms of all of the measurements. The average results of the low-frequency resonance training group were at that point significantly better than the other two groups′ averages, while the high-frequency vibration training group′s results were superior to those of the control group.Conclusion:Resonance training at 7Hz is the most effective in improving the balance and walking ability of stroke survivors with hemiplegia.
