No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This project comprises three sets of physiological studies - testing eight specific hypotheses - that will contribute new knowledge on proprioception and motor control in a genetic disorder that affects specific components of the sensory nervous system.

I: To investigate the neurophysiological basis for disturbed motor control in Hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy (HSAN) III II: To investigate the effects of enhancing cutaneous feedback on motor control in HSAN III III: To investigate the cortical representation of proprioceptive inputs in HSAN III

Conditions

  • Atunomic Neuropathy

Interventions

OTHER

kinesiology tape around the hip, knee and ankle joints

We will also demonstrate that taping the skin increases the central representation of cutaneous afferent input in HSAN III.

OTHER

No kinesiology tape around the hip, knee and ankle joints

Investigators will demonstrate that taping the skin increases the central representation of cutaneous afferent input in HSAN III.
