The effect of optokinetic and galvanic vestibular stimulations in reducing post-stroke postural asymmetry

Highlights • Both optokinetic and galvanic vestibular stimulations modulate the position of the centre of pressure (CP) in people with hemiparesis. • The correction action of sensory stimulation for postural asymmetry is more effective in RHL suggesting a high level cortical effect on body’s represe...

Description
Summary:	Highlights • Both optokinetic and galvanic vestibular stimulations modulate the position of the centre of pressure (CP) in people with hemiparesis. • The correction action of sensory stimulation for postural asymmetry is more effective in RHL suggesting a high level cortical effect on body’s representation of space. • The effect of both sensory stimulations is significantly correlated suggesting a common or at least overlapping central mechanism in relation to postural control.
