This study investigated the effects of 6 months of Galileo Therapy on muscle function and cross-section in Cystic Fibrosis patients (12Hz, 6min., 5/week (flexibility) + 26Hz 3/week (muscle power)). The Galileo group showed in average an improvement in muscle cross-section (+5,5%), muscle function (jump height +6,1%) as well as movement efficiency (decrease of used muscle force -4,3% but increase in muscle power +4,7%)...
Galileo Research Facts No. 120: Can Galileo Therapy increase muscle and lung function in Cystic Fibrosis patients?
This study investigated the effects of Galileo Therapy on lung and muscle function of adult Cystic Fibrosis patients (age 24-47, 20-25Hz, pos. 1, 10*3 min./week, 3 months). The results showed that Galileo Therapy could significantly improve lung function (+5%) and muscle function e.g. in the chair rising test (CRT) in muscle power (+16%) and muscle force (+34%)...
