Visual Biofeedback of Force Information for Eccentric Training of Hemiplegic Patients.

Motor learning issues for hemiplegics not only include motor impairments such as spastic paralysis, but reportedly also an inability to appropriately recognize somatic sensations. In this regard, biofeedback of movement information through visual information and auditory information has been found effective as a method for drawing attention to appropriate somatic sensations. In this context, here, we propose a novel eccentric training system utilizing visual biofeedback of force information.
