The visual and vestibular systems work in tight coordination to keep the world stable as we move through it. When this integrated system is disrupted, whether through peripheral vestibular hypofunction or after a traumatic brain injury (TBI), patients commonly experience dizziness, blurred vision, difficulty reading, visual fatigue, and challenges with balance. Although some rehabilitation programs for these conditions may appear similar on the surface, the underlying mechani

Balance Assessment in Vestibular Rehabilitation - Limits of Stability Assessing the Limits of Stability (LOS) allows us to evaluate stability under dynamic conditions. This is especially important because many daily activities challenge these limits, such as leaning forward to reach an object. LOS provides valuable information about voluntary motor control required for safe and independent performance of activities of daily living. Remember that most falls occur during dynami

Optokinetic stimulation (OKS) is an important tool in this context. OKS consists of exposure to large‑field moving visual stimuli, introducing controlled visual motion that creates a sensory conflict. This conflict forces the brain to reweight sensory information and reveals how effectively visual and vestibular signals are integrated.

The vestibulo‑ocular reflex (VOR) helps keep vision stable when the head moves by generating eye movements in the opposite direction. This allows images to remain clear on the retina during everyday activities such as walking, bending, or turning the head. When VOR performance is reduced, patients often experience blurred vision, oscillopsia, or difficulty keeping objects in focus while moving

The Basic Balance System was designed specifically to address these concerns. It offers a practical, affordable, and user-friendly solution for professionals who want to begin offering balance assessments and training.

This beginner-friendly guide explains how force, pressure, and dynamic platforms turn invisible sway into clear numbers, why terms like posturography and foot-pressure maps matter, and how Sensing Future technology helps clinicians cut fall risk and speed rehabilitation.
