Key Points

This research investigates how muscle tendon vibration affects proprioceptive performance in healthy adults during specific tasks.
Participants performed arm position matching and arm movement matching tasks while receiving muscle tendon vibration on the biceps brachii.
Proprioceptive performance was assessed using standard measures during these tasks.
Muscle tendon vibration significantly improved accuracy in arm position matching tasks.
Participants showed enhanced performance in kinesthetic sense tasks with the application of vibration.
Findings suggest that vibration may be a beneficial technique for enhancing proprioceptive functions.

Implication

Examines proprioceptive performance impacts of muscle tendon vibration on arm tasks, suggesting potential for rehabilitation.

Abstract

To determine how MTV of the biceps brachii affects proprioceptive performance during arm position matching (APM) and arm movement matching (KIN) tasks in healthy adults.
