Postural stability and postural control in visually and hearing impaired persons

Summary/Abstract: This article proposes a basic knowledge and selected research surveys in issue of the postural stability and postural control in visually and hearing impaired people. Postural stability is influenced by integration and evaluation of visual, vestibular and somatosensory information. Visually and hearing impaired people are a potentially weakened target group with regard to the disturbed keeping of the postural stability, posture and balance. Postural Feedback Training would allow increasing the neural adaptability. Biofeedback method is based on the biomechanical measurement and physiological body system mechanisms.
