Increased skin blood flow during low intensity vibration in human participants: Analysis of control mechanisms using short-time Fourier transform.
Yi-Ting TzenEileen M Weinheimer-HausThomas F CorbiereTimothy J KohPublished in: PloS one (2018)
Low intensity vibration produced acute increases in skin blood flow mediated in part by vascular control mechanisms of myogenic origin. Further investigation is warranted to determine whether low intensity vibration induces similar increases in skin blood flow in populations prone to developing chronic non-healing wounds, such as spinal cord injury and diabetes.
