German term or phrase: Knorpelmasse in: „Knorpelmasse wird aktiviert“
Nach wie vor handelt es sich um Vibrationstrainer und ähnliche ther. Produkte. Natürlich weiß ich Bescheid. Ich finde aber die wörtliche Uebersetzung nicht korrekt und einfach überflüssig. Der Begriff erscheint neben anderen Begriffen in der Beschreibung der Vorteile von solchen Geräten. (wie etwa: Stress wird abgebaut/ Nervenverspannungen werden reduziert etc.).

Meine Frage wäre: wie könnte man diesen Begriff (hier Satz) ins Englische übersetzen, damit Sinn, aber zugleich logischer Zusammenhang und Einfachheit (der Leser/ Anwender ist doch oft ein „einfacher“ Mensch) aufrechterhalten werden könnte-n (in anderen Worten- verständlich und möglischst 'präzise').

Aehnlicher Kontext:
Übung zum Aufbau von Knorpelmasse zwischen den Wirbeln der Wirbelsäule
