   However, in a study published this week in the Annals of Internal Medicine , the authors found no benefit on BMD in postmenopausal women from standing on a low magnitude device at 0.3g at 90Hz or 30Hz for 20min/d x 12mo vs placebo. A review of the evidence published in the same issue concluded that there is not enough clinical outcome data to support or deny the use of WBV.As with many new & promising drugs & therapeutic modalities, just because the theory makes sense, just because it worked in lab rats, doesn't imply that there's any benefit in humans. As with new drugs, don't be the first but don't be the last, either. Follow @alvinblin
