- Discover the transformative power of low-intensity vibration therapy
- Learn about the role of exercise in musculoskeletal health and aging
- Gain insights into innovative approaches to fracture healing and bone formation
- Understand the safety considerations of vibration therapy
Astronauts are the healthiest people on the planet, they go up into space and they're losing 3% of their bone per month, even though they're exercising. How could that possibly be? So all living systems on Earth have grown up with one common feature. It's not the temperature. It's not the nutrition. Gravity is the one common equaling factor for all living systems. So it shouldn't be a surprise to any of us that our cells have evolved to be sensitive to gravity, the pull of gravity, and therefore the mechanical signals induced by gravity and exercise.
Ever wondered how something as simple as vibration could impact your bones? In this episode, Dr. Maya Novak sits down with Dr. Clinton T. Rubin, a leading researcher in vibration therapy, to discuss the surprising effects of mechanical signals on bone health. Dr. Rubin, a SUNY Distinguished Professor of Biomedical Engineering, shares his deep knowledge on how low-intensity vibrations can help improve bone density and aid recovery.
But it's not all good news – he also warns about the potential dangers of certain devices that many people use without realizing the risks involved. This conversation sheds light on why we face more bone-related issues like osteoporosis as we age and how mechanical signals might be the key to better musculoskeletal health.
Whether you're dealing with bone health issues yourself or just curious about innovative therapies, this episode offers valuable insights that challenge traditional exercise beliefs and explore new frontiers in bone health.
