Galileo Research Facts No. 126: Can Galileo Therapy improve muscle function and muscle cross-section in Cystic Fibrosis?

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%)...
