The application of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) to paretic limbs has
demonstrated utility for motor rehabilitation following brain injury. When NMES is delivered …

Introduction: Acute effects of prolonged local vibration (LV) at the central nervous system
level have been well investigated demonstrating an altered motoneuronal excitability with a …

Despite the best available physiotherapy, the stroke survivor population remains affected by
significant motor impairment in both upper and lower extremities. Many emerging …

We conducted two experiments to determine how differences in muscle contraction levels,
muscle contraction types, and movement duration affect degree of post-exercise depression …

Objective: We investigated the transient effect of short-duration paired-pulse electrical
stimulation (ppES) on corticospinal excitability and the after-effect of long-duration ppES on …

Paired associative stimulation (PAS) has been explored in humans as a noninvasive tool to
drive plasticity and promote recovery after neurologic insult. A more thorough understanding …

Purpose This study examined neuromuscular responses of the biceps brachii (BB) for
concentric and eccentric muscle actions during bilateral, dynamic constant external …

Purpose Repetitive or sustained simple muscle contractions have been shown to alter
corticomotor excitability. The present study investigated the effects of a sustained handgrip …

Abstract Introduction: Introduction: Despite reports about improved nerve conduction after
manual therapy, the literature offers no studies in which the impact would be assessed …

Introduction: Despite reports about improved nerve conduction after manual therapy, the
