A Methodology for Applying Vestibular Stimulation

Image
The focus of this blog is the application of vestibular stimulation and sensorimotor exercise to a variety of conditions known to be impacted by the vestibular system. For the purpose of furthering this discussion we are dprosposing the exploration of the GyroStim methodology as a means for delivering this stimulation and exercise. In Practice: The GyroStim method is based on the premise that in order to improve one or more aspects of human performance you must challenge it. GyroStim is designed to challenge the three fundamental processes that drive many aspects of human performance: PERCEIVE:   Detailed information about what is happening around you is sensed through the eyes (vision), body (proprioception), ears (hearing), vestibular system (balance), and other senses, and sent via the peripheral nervous system to the brain.  PROCESS:   Sensory information about the environment is received, coordinated, and distributed throughout the brain, igniting a...

This puts a new spin on hand eye coordination! Absolute rush going through a few protocols/exercises! I would consider this prepping for #readyplayerone video game play! #lookoutfuture #gyrostim A post shared by Cole Hamels (@colehamels) on Apr 10, 2018 at 11:32am PDT

DID YOU KNOW: GyroStim Has a Wide Range of Speeds & Intensities

Image
DID YOU KNOW? GyroStim moves at one RMP increments from 1 RPM to 30 RPM; some profiles invert, some do not.  You may see videos of GyroStim of people moving VERY SLOW or VERY FAST in GyroStim: People going slow are either just starting their training, or are addressing a specific rehabilitation goal. People going fast started their training with very slow motion profiles and worked up to the faster profiles over a period of time. Before you decide that GyroStim is too fast or too slow for you, your patients, athletes or research...check our home page ( http://www.gyrostim.com ), and, video page ( www.gyrostim.com/videos.html ) to see the full range of intensities.
