Defines proprioception and its functions in human skin, muscles, and joint tissues.
Proprioception as a compound sense; Position sense largely mediated by activity in muscle …

Exercises to improve joint proprioception and coordination of the functionally unstable ankle
are advocated throughout the literature, yet there is little evidence that these exercises have …

Proprioception and accompanying neuromuscular feedback mechanisms provide an
important component for the establishment and maintenance of functional joint stability …

We will discuss the mechanisms by which dynamic knee stability may be achieved and
relate this to issues that interest clinicians and scientists concerned with dynamic knee …

Shoulder proprioception was measured in 90 subjects who were assigned to three
experimental groups: group 1 (n= 40), healthy college-age subjects; group 2 (n= 30) …
