Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  whole body vibration (long duration)  Healthy older adults with mild-to-moderate balance impairment undergo 20 bouts of 1 minute after subsequent 1 minute rest. Subject are allowed to stand on vibrating platform at frequency of 30Hz, 35Hz and 40Hz with their knees flexed and their arms supported 
Comparator Agent  whole body vibration (moderate duration)  Healthy older adults with mild-to-moderate balance impairment undergo 8 bouts of 1 minute after subsequent 1 minute rest.Subject are allowed to stand on vibrating platform at frequency of 30Hz, 35Hz and 40Hz with their knees flexed and their arms supported.  
Intervention  whole body vibration (short duration)  Healthy older adults with mild-to-moderate balance impairment undergo 4 bouts of 15 seconds after subsequent 1 minute rest.Subject are allowed to stand on vibrating platform at frequency of 30Hz, 35Hz and 40Hz with their knees flexed and their arms supported.

Brief Summary  

Aim: To investigate the efficacy of WBV on balance and mobility in older adults through a dosimetry study. By systematically varying the dosimetry parameters, we will evaluate the impact of different WBV protocols on balance and mobility outcomes in older adults.The significance of this research lies in its potential to enhance balance and mobility, contribute to non-pharmacological interventions, address dosimetry considerations, prevent falls, and promote evidence-based practice. Methodology: It will be a prospective dosimetry study, including the elderly (60 years of age and older, both males and females). The participants will be screened for having a minimum to moderate risk of falls using a short Falls Efficacy Scale and Mini-mental Status Examination.Results will be reported for all the outcome measures at baseline and post-intervention at 6th week from baseline.
