Interest in a better understanding of mechanical vestibular stimulation and its effect on
changing the muscle tone in individuals with Cerebral Palsy (CP) is the motivation of this …

Modeling the passive behavior of the knee in subjects with spasticity involves the applied
external torques (eg gravitational torque), the intrinsic moments due to tissue properties, as …

The purpose of this pilot study is to determine whether mechanical stimulations to the
otoliths would result in a change on the muscle tone on disabled subjects and to test the …

Mechanical vestibular stimulation for reducing spasticity is not yet well understood. It is
crucial to identify the proper characteristics of mechanical stimulation needed to impact the …

The original objective of this study was to quantify spasticity in a spastic subject using the
Pendulum Knee Drop test. An interesting phenomenon was observed while analyzing the …

The purpose of the this investigation was to evaluate the secondary benefit of FDS on
spasticity and motor control at the knee for a child diagnosed with CP. We hypothesized that …

The ability to maintain a proper posture is becoming a more interesting topic as it is
necessary to understand the behavior of the human body to be able to apply this knowledge …
