Induced effects of electrical muscle stimulation and visual stimulation on visual sensory reweighting dynamics during standing on a balance board.

ABSTRACT: Providing instruction cues on body motions using stimulations has the potential to induce sensory reweighting dynamics. However, there are currently very few quantitative investigations on the difference in the induced effects on the sensory reweighting dynamics between stimulation methods. We therefore investigated the difference in the induced effects of electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) and visual sensory augmentation (visual SA) on sensory reweighting dynamics during standing on a balance board. Twenty healthy participants controlled their posture to maintain the board horizontally in the balance-board task, which included a pre-test without stimulation, a stimulation test, and a post-test without stimulation. The EMS group (n = 10) received EMS to the tibialis anterior or soleus mus
