Popis: | Background: During menopause, a woman’s health often deteriorates, and various methods are sought to prevent this decline. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of SR-WBV training on the health and wellbeing of women over 50 years of age. Methods: SR-WBV training was performed twice a week for six weeks using the SRT Zeptor® Medical-plus noise device. Forty-two women were trained on the D program (7–9 series, lasting 45–60 s each), and 23 women on the O program (9–11 series, lasting 50–60 s each). The frequency ranged from 2 to 8 Hz. Due to health problems, 12% of the women did not complete the study protocols. Results: The remaining women declared an improvement in mental state (51%), physical activity (68%), and general well-being (72%), as well as a reduction in lower limb pain (21%), back pain (14%), and urinary incontinence symptoms (17%). Conclusion: The benefits of SR-WBV training include improvement in general well-being and physical fitness, reduction of lower limb and back pain, and reduction of urinary incontinence symptoms. SR-WBV training can provoke or aggravate back pain and lower limb pain and cause other side effects, so the optimization of training parameters for SR-WBV is required. |
