Location: Medical University of South Carolina Charleston South Carolina
Summary
Portable Neuromodulation Stimulator (PoNS) is non-invasive stimulation device placed on the tongue to stimulate those brain regions understood to be important for maintaining balance. This research study aims to collect evidence that PoNS therapy along with balance training improves postural and walking stability post-stroke.
