Postural control Sample Clauses

Postural control. Traditionally, biomechanical principles indicate that balance exists when the line of gravity falls within the base of support and increases with its increasing area, a lower center of gravity, and greater mass (Bell, 1998). The interaction of various postural systems including musculoskeletal and neural systems, and feedback from visual, vestibular, and somatosensory cues are needed to maintain balance or postural control (Xxxxx, 2006). How much each system is used to maintain postural control can be altered depending on the goals of the movement tasks, individual characteristics, and experiences, as well as environmental constraints (Xxxxx, 2006). Postural control is associated with maintaining or restoring the line of gravity within the base of support to sustain a posture (e.g., standing) and provide volitional and automatic postural movements. Figure 1.1 illustrates a model representing the components contributing to postural control (Modified from Xxxxx, 2006).
