GyroStim Sensorimotor Exercise System

Our understanding of the magnitude and importance of vestibular contributions to processes throughout the brain and body continues to broaden, fueling a resurgence in the research and application of vestibular stimulation. Vestibular pathways involved in cognition , is a comprehensive article that reviews recent discoveries of vestibular pathways in the brain that extend far beyond the role of balance: "Recent discoveries have emphasized the role of the vestibular system in cognitive processes such as memory, spatial navigation and bodily self-consciousness. A precise understanding of the vestibular pathways involved is essential to understand the consequences of vestibular diseases for cognition, as well as develop therapeutic strategies to facilitate recovery." By combining vestibular stimulation with interactive sensorimotor exercises, GyroStim challenges cognitive and physical processes that drive balance, reaction time, hand-eye coordination,...

At GyroStim, we are driven by the science that clearly demonstrates the efficacy of vestibular stimulation and sensorimotor exercise for a multitude of conditions and purposes.  Fueled by this knowledge, we are committed to harnessing vestibular stimulation and sensorimotor exercise in ways that allow them to be applied with confidence, control, and replication not only for the advancement of scientific research, but more importantly, to further clinical applications for rehabilitation, human performance, and quality of life.     GyroStim is an automated multi-axis rotating chair integrated with an interactive laser targeting system. It delivers non-invasive and non-pharmaceutical strategies that challenge human function and performance. GyroStim works by providing data-driven incremental conditioning to the human sensorimotor system through specific combinations of vestibular stimulation, sensorimotor exercise, and cognitive challenge.

Breakthrough MdDS Research with GyroStim to be Presented at the International Congress on Motion Sickness, July 2019 Dr. Kim Fox of AVORA Health Centers will present the results of a study on the efficacy of multi-axis rotational stimulation and sensorimotor training (using GyroStim ) as an intervention for MdDS at the International Congress on Motion Sickness in Reykjavik, Iceland, in July of 2019. Forty-two of the forty-nine subjects in the study reported a reduction in symptoms of MdDS following one to two weeks of treatment. Dr. Fox, of AVORA Balance & Dizzy Center, in collaboration with Dr. Courtney Hall of East Tennessee State University, concluded, "This study provides early evidence that this method of treatment has promising potential to aid in the management of, or recovery from, MdDS.” FROM LEFT:  Dr. Fox using GyroStim Sensorimotor System with a subject;  Dr. Kim Fox ...
