Aging is associated with cognitive decline, ranging from normal to mild cognitive impairment or dementia. This leads to physical and cognitive impairment, which are risk factors for loss of autonomy therefore physical and cognitive training are important for cognitively impaired older adults. Cognitive somatosensory exercise (CSE) is a special comprehensive rehabilitation program for retraining sensory-induced motor control, and whole-body vibration (WBV), which enhances neuromuscular function, cognition, and balance. This study aims to investigate the effects of combined cognitive sensory-motor training with whole-body vibration on cognition and balance in older adults with mild to moderate cognitive impairment.
