A 2026 systematic review and network meta-analysis examined 27 randomized controlled trials involving 1,608 older adults. Whole-body vibration training was associated with improvements in balance and gait performance. Different vibration frequencies appeared to produce different effects, while traditional exercise training ranked better for muscle strength. The researchers concluded that WBV can be a useful exercise option for older adults, particularly for balance and gait.
