“…muscle after SCI four weeks after the beginning of treatment, suggesting that these approaches seem to protect the motor neurons as well as alleviate muscle atrophy. An experimental prospective study with four parallel treatment groups (Butezloff et al, 2015) analyzed the skeletal muscle changes after a complete SCI in rats and aimed to compare the ES and whole-body vibration's effects on the prevention of muscle hypotrophy in these animals. After 30 days of treatment with ES (3 days/week, 20 mins per day) the Authors obtained a significant partial muscle hypotrophy prevention.…”
