Galileo Research Facts No. 42: Can Galileo Therapy improve balance, muscle power and quality of life in elderly?
This study shows the effects of Galileo Therapy on muscle function and quality of life in a nursing home community (2×1 min. 10Hz, 2×1 min. 26Hz, 3/week, 6 weeks). Both groups received additional 3*10 min. per week physiotherapy (gait, balance, strength). The Galileo Therapy group showed significantly higher improvements in all tested aspects than the control group (about +40% on average).
