1- What is it? Posturography is a non-evasive technique that quantifies an individual's balance behavior in upright stance. As mentioned in previous articles (What is Balance?), balance is achieved and maintained by a complex set of sensorimotor control systems, which includes the visual, somatosensory and vestibular systems. It is through their integration in real time...

Both tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow typically result from repetitive, forceful...
Each year more than 750,000 people are affected by a brain-damaging stroke. From these attacks, 80% are left with some degree of lost motor function and strength on one side of the body. This ensuing weakness is called hemiparesis and limits the dexterity of people’s hands and arms. These patients are left to seek out conventional rehabilitation therapy or an alternative...
What is the difference between force platforms and pressure platforms? 1. The science behind Both platforms measure different biomechanical characteristics. However, it’s easy to get pressure confused with force, and vice-versa: • The pressure platform measures the plantar pressure distribution, obtaining the plantar pressure map, similar to a heatmap of the foot. •...
“If you are handicapped, you will see that this is the most important thing in life…how you FEEL about things”. These are words from Armin, an outpatient at Rehakilnik Zihlschlacht in Switzerland.
