| Group A (n = 20): received core stability exercise trained three times a week for 8 weeks. |
Woman was in crook lying position .She instructed to contract her lower abdomen while continuing to breathe in a normally. While maintaining the contraction |

| Group B (n = 20): received whole body vibration trained three times a week for 8 weeks | The woman assumed a full squat position on a vibration platform. The apparatus was set at a frequency of 30 Hz, amplitude of 2 mm, and duration of 5 min. The women were instructed to remain in the squatting position with holding hand rail after turning on the vibration and to report any discomfort that might arise. At the end of 5 min, the vibration turned off automatically. Thereafter, the women took a 1-min rest. They were then asked to stand on the vibration platform for 5 min, with the same parameters as those used in the squatting position. Thus, the total time for the application of WBV in each session was 10 min |

The research was conducted at the Physical Therapy Department of Al-Zaytoonah University. Forty female patients who had vitamin D deficiency were enrolled in this study according to specific criteria: vitamin D concentration was preliminarily assessed based on the parathyroid hormone response so concentration of vitamin D and parathyroid hormone were measured pre- and post-two month's intervention. Vitamin D concentration was less than 12ng/ml and age between 20 and 50 years
