“…Computerized posturography systems can assess balance and postural control with greater sensitivity and objectivity than clinical instruments, while also quantifying reactions under altered sensory conditions [4]. The negative is that posturography systems are expensive and require a dedicated space in the clinic, which can limit their widespread use [4].…”

“…This information has many applications including the screening and diagnosis of balance disorders and as a clinical outcome measure in physical therapy and clinical studies (Cohen, Blatchly, & Gombash, 1993;Visser, Carpenter, van der Kooij, & Bloem, 2008). Results from studies utilising posturographic analysis have shown that a wide range of factors may have a deleterious effect on postural sway.…”

“…These include external factors such as sleep deprivation, environmental toxins and prescription medication (Allain, Bentue-Ferrer, Polard, Akwa, & Patat, 2005;Karita et al, 2006;Sack et al, 1993). Internal factors include age, pathology affecting the neurological, visual, and vestibular systems and musculoskeletal complaints Visser et al, 2008). Neck pain, of both traumatic and non-traumatic origin, is an example of a common musculoskeletal complaint that has been associated with increased measures of postural sway.…”

“…Research on postural control assessment has focused primarily on the diagnosis of balance disorders and rehabilitation of postural control, as well as understanding the pathophysiology of balance (Visser, Carpenter, Van der Kooij, & Bloem, 2008). However, this sometimes ignores the biomechanical bases of postural stability, which cannot be overlooked when trying to gain a better understanding of postural control.…”

Despite a substantial number of studies, the interaction between mechanical indicators of stability and perception of instability remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of sway frequency and verbal restraint on mechanical and perceived postural stability. Fourteen participants underwent a series of standing voluntary anterior-posterior swaying trials at three frequencies (20, 40, and 60 bpm) and two levels of restraint (non restraint and verbally restraint to swaying at the ankle). Repeated measures ANOVA tests revealed greater mechanical stability defined though the margin of stability, and greater horizontal ground reaction forces, while the centre of pressure excursions remained unchanged with increasing frequency. Furthermore, ground reaction forces were greater in the non-restraint condition. Moreover, a tendency toward greater perceived instability with increasing voluntary sway frequency was observed..Our results indicate that variations in sway frequency and verbal restraint resulted in noticeable alterations in mechanical indicators of stability, with no clear effect on perceived instability.
