The team applied combined murine models
of muscle injury and hind limb ischemia to investigate two potential mechanotherapies: an implanted magnetic biocompatible gel and an external, soft robotic pressurized
cuff.
Then, the ferrogel was subjected to magnetic pulses to apply cyclic stimulation to the
muscle, while pulses
of air allowed the
cuff to cyclically massage the hind leg.
To their surprise, the ferrogel implant and pressurized
cuff also resulted in very similar levels
of regeneration, suggesting that the use
of non-invasive pressurized
cuffs or devices could one day help heal patients suffering from severe
muscle injuries.
The researchers discovered that cyclic mechanical stimulation provided by both magnetized gel and robotic
cuff resulted in a two - and - a-half-fold improvement in
muscle regeneration and reduced tissue scarring over the course
of two weeks, ultimately leading to regained
muscle function, demonstrating that mechanical stimulation
of muscle alone can foster regeneration.

Strength training experts and triathlon coaches always seem to be highlighting the injury - preventive and performance importance
of tending to small, supportive
