Summary

Balance of the body is achieved by the coordination of three major systems, visual, vestibular and proprioceptive sensation and by the reflexive control of the limbs. In myelopathy, factors like balance and posture, range of motion, muscle strength, coordinated motor control, muscle tone and proprioception are affected. Balance and gait rehabilitation is an important goal in myelopathy. Virtual reality (VR) is a computer based technology that is used for task oriented biofeedback therapy in rehabilitation. This study was envisioned to observe the utility of VR in rehabilitation for improving balance in patients of myelopathy.
