“…Exposure of both healthy subjects and patients (with Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, stroke, type II diabetes, etc.) to such intervention showed improvements in proprioception, joint position sense, leg balance and gait, increase in bone mineral density, functional mobility and muscle strength, enhancement in muscle oxygenation and peripheral circulation (Ko et al, 2017;Orr, 2015;Robinson et al, 2016). Reduced peripheral circulation caused by peripheral vascular diseases or various clinical disorders as diabetes and rheumatologic diseases poses increased risk for mortality or morbidity, especially, among the elderly with declined ability to control skin blood flow and greater susceptibility and severity in macrovascular and microvascular impairments of the extremities (Mayfield et al, 2001;Tew et al, 2012).…”
