Objective: Numerous reports advocate that training of the proprioceptive sense is a viable
behavioral therapy for improving impaired motor function. However, there is little agreement …

Current understanding of how muscles coordinate walking in humans is derived from
analyses of body motion, ground reaction force and EMG measurements. This is Part I of a …

differing according to the discipline practised. We compared, by means of static and dynamic …

Posture control to maintain an upright stance is one of the most important and basic
requirements in the daily life of humans. The sensory inputs involved in posture control …

To document the activity of cutaneous mechanoreceptors in the glabrous skin of the foot

Objective Proprioceptive training is any intervention aiming to improve proprioceptive
function with the ultimate goal to enhance motor function and performance. It has been …

It has been widely assumed for nearly a century, that postural muscles operate in a spring‐
like manner and that muscle length signals joint angle (the mechano‐reflex mechanism) …

Understanding the mechanisms that reduce the many degrees of freedom in the
musculoskeletal system remains an outstanding challenge. Muscle synergies reduce the …
