The scientific papers on the list below (this list -- from Marodyne's site -- should give you an idea of how much research has been done on low-intensity vibration. )

If you find Clinton Rubin on Google Scholar you'll find a list of research papers -- click on "year" to find the most recent.

The web page of Clinton Rubin at Stony Brook University also has explanation of the research that led to the development of the device, as well as research conducted using the device.

Unfortunately I cannot include links to websites in this message, as I am a newcomer to this community.

Studies related to LiV

Peer-reviewed studies have been featured in leading scientific journals.

I concur with you - if Marodyne was science based we would not be
here discussing it, and discussing it again.
We are so vulnerable and at times ..fearful, yes at times, the word
is fearful,
which makes us very susceptible to marketing messages,
and we will try most anything and everything.

About the Peer Reviewed studies on Marodyne, can someone link
a clinical study that does not have Dr Clinton Rubin's name on it.
Please share it with us.

I - always - look at the bottom of clinical studies to see the names
of professionals involved in the study, as well as conflict of
interest, such as grants from pharmaceutical companies.

I asked my physiotherapist about Marodyne.
He provided me with a xerox copy on study of whole body
vibration He says many PT and OP are guided on information
found on meta analyses.
You can go to Elsevier and download
Systematic review and meta analyses on the effects of whole body vibration on bone health.
It is a meta analyses. It is dated 2022, and downloads to your
computer as a zip file which opens quite easily.
It is difficult, to translate that data, technical stuff,
to real life decisions on what to buy.

As of now, approx 2 years after my diagnosis for 'severe
osteoporosis' - I still have not decided to take - or not to take
any drugs -
My very first appointment was with a young doctor,
a geriatrician I think, who walked into the room with a notepad
and in dulcent tone of an undertaker said - you have very severe osteoporosis.

Next came fear, and fear, and anxiety.

I then saw an older Endo who warned me I could be in the
30% who die within 2 years if I broke my hip. And why would I not
take Evenity, he asks, you haven't had a heart attack, have you,
discounting the possibility of cardiac events.

Don't make the bed - I said to myself, because someone fractured
doing that.
Don't lift that heavy water kettle - I said to myself - someone mentioned
fracturing.
Don't don't don't...reinforced by all those youtube videos..
I looked at so many on youtube..Margaret Martin and plenty of others.

One size does not fit all.
I was not..and did not have a recent history of fracturing.
And wondered...can I heel drop safely...can I lift weights over my head safely.
How heavy...

Sadly, it is hard to find - one clinic with Comprehensive locus for osteoporosis
patients to get information on everything we need to do to help bone density:
execize, including balance
nutrition.
and vitamins/supplements.
drugs, if you find it necessary.

When it comes to nutrients and supplements, it is so time consuming.
Each one of us has to find out what supplement, what nutrient
would help bone health.
Think of the time spent, searching for answers.
The advice most readily given to us is drugs.
It takes a lifetime to do research on each supplement or each nutrient,
delaying the optimum time to take them.

Nutrition, exercize and balance has been my focus for the past year.
I had a Dexa two week.
My spine improved 5.6% My hip improved 6.4%
My goal is to improve on these scores.
