They are the basic structural and functional elements of the musculoskeletal system based mainly on shrinkage of their fibres. This state, among others, ensures and induces motor reactions defined in a given situation, affects balance and muscle balance, the efficiency of neuromuscular connections, and also decides the efficiency of the motor system. Aim of study: Aim of study: The aim of the work was to review literature regarding the impact of treatments using vibrational stimulus on human muscle tissue. Particular attention was paid to the observed improvement of its motor properties after the completion of vibrational therapy application. An attempt was also made to present the widest possible use of vibrational procedures in various disease states related to the functionality of muscle tissue, which is why in the present overview, the included research was differentiated in terms of target groups and investigated muscles. Material and methods: Material and methods: The analysis included domestic and foreign literature, in which the positive effect of vibrational treatments on the motor properties of adults was discussed. Studies were selected, the authors of which described the most important parameters of the vibrational stimulus used, such as: frequency, amplitude and duration of exposure. Research work from the last 15 years has been analysed (not including the historical part). However, as many as 70% of the referred studies have been published in the last 5 years. Data from the following databases was analysed: Medline, Embase, Cochrane CENTRAL trials register, ScienceDirect, PubMed, IEEE Xplore, Wiley Online Library.
