The regular physical activity is a non-pharmacological intervention with great benefits for improving quality of life, reduce morbidity and mortality of cardiopulmonary dysfunction and to control of metabolic syndrome (MS), and in the management of patients with neurological disorders such as in cerebral palsy (CP). The whole body vibration exercises (WBVE) are produced when the subject is in contact with the base of an oscillating/vibratory platform (OVP) due to sinusoidal and deterministic vibrations generated by these platforms. The WBVE have been used by people trained and untrained and in the treatment of patients with different clinical disorders. Biological effects such as increased flexibility and muscle strength are related to these WBVE. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of vibrations generated in OVP in patients with MS or PC. In studies with MS, a search in PubMed database for the keyword "flexibility" and its relation to the WBVE was carried out, and a case study on the effect of the patient WBVE flexibility with MS. Regarding to the search involving PC, a systematic review was performed about the effect of WBVE in CP patients through the databases PubMed, Cochrane Library, CINAHL (Ebsco Host), PEDro, Science Direct and Scopus. The results obtained from the WBVE protocol using low frequency (5 to 14 Hz) have shown to increase the anterior trunk flexibility in patients with MS, that is stabilized over the eleventh session. An important number of publications is found in PubMed for the keyword "flexibility" and the findings of our research show that there is interest in evaluating the effect of WBVE in the flexibility of subjects. The effects reported in patients with CP include muscle strengthening, reducing spasticity, increased flexibility, increased bone mineral density and improves postural control. In conclusion, the analysis of different studies suggest that WBVE can be an intervention modality for patients with MS, improving anterior trunk flexibility. Furthermore, the review carried shows improved flexibility in several groups searched in the revision. For CP patients, it was found that WBVE improve various clinical parameters of patients, however, as the protocols are not described in detail, the evidence for a definition of best parameters for this population remain inconclusive
