[Purpose] Recently, there has been growing interest in the somatosensory system, but little data exist on the interaction between dynamic postural control and the somatosensory system. The purpose of this study was to determine whether a training program, based on tactile and proprioceptive sensory stimulation of the trunk with the use of perceptual surfaces, improved the estimation of walking distance by healthy subjects, the ability to walk toward a memorized distance without vision, and whether it increases upright gait stability. [Subjects and Methods] Ten healthy subjects with a mean age of 31.9 ± 2.5 years were enrolled and participated in 10 daily sessions of perceptive training using perceptual surfaces, for 45 minutes each session. An experimental indoor test measured the subjects’ ability to perceive walking distances to a memorized target in an indoor environment. [Results] After treatment, the distances that were traversed were closer to the target than before treatment. Trunk acceleration did not differ significantly between pre- and post-training and did not increase significantly after training. [Conclusion] Treatment with perceptual surfaces stimulating the trunk midline improves the estimation of walking distance and modifies proprioceptive gait patterns, allowing various corrective strategies to be implemented during ambulation.

“…In the range of rotation (±180°), gain overshoot has been observed in the reproduction testing of sine [11], triangle [6], and step [4] angular velocity waveforms. By confirming the previous results, the overshoot observed in the present study suggests that gain overshoot is a general property of angular perception in the range of angular rotation up to ± 180°.…”

“…sine, triangle, or step ( Figure IB, Velocity). Rotation was only appHed in a clockvwse direction because previous studies did not report the emergence of any bias effect with unidirectional rotation [7,9,11]. Within 2 s of the completion of passive rotation, the subjects began manipulating the controller, i.e.…”

“…According to the results of very few studies made in our country, the male/female ratio has been reported as approximately 5/1 [ 2 ]. The vestibuler, tactile, proprioceptive, visual and auditory senses of these individuals must be properly related to brain centers to allow them to perform their daily living activities correctly [ 4 ]. Although benefits, such as potential opportunities for social interactions, reduction of self-stimulatory behavior, and increases in the number of appropriate responses, have been observed in individuals with ASD who participated in physical activity, the motor function and the physical fitness levels of these person are areas in which they show no interest [ 5 ].…”

Objectives:The purpose of this study is to achieve a vision for autistic children and their parents aimed at generating interest in ideas such as “Sanitas Per Aquam” (SPA), massage and music therapy, which has begun to have widespread use and to attract attention.Methods:This cross-sectional, descriptive study was carried out with autistic children and their parents from February to April 2015 in Muğla, Turkey. The study was began by interviewing experts in the field and by developing a suitable assessment questionnaire. In order to direct the flow of conversation between the researchers and the autisitc children and their parents, the researchers conducted semi-structured face to face interviews in a form that had been determined by using reports in the literature and the opinions of experts in the field.Results:Forty two boys (84%) and eight girls (16%) with autism participated in our study. Children in the 0 ─ 7 age group spent long time in the bathroom (P = 0.001). Boys liked to be hugged more than girls (P = 0.01). Children ages 0 ─ 7 years liked bright lighting while those 15 years of age and older liked gloomy lighting (P = 0.009). Except for these statistically significant sex- and age-related differences, no other statistically significant differences were noted in the parameters of this study. Although the result was not statistically significant, more children with mild autism disorder obeyed commands like inhale or exhale (P = 0.051).Conclusion:Treatment for autism spectrum disorders is not yet fully possible, so many studies are being done to alleviate some symptoms and to improve the quality of life for individuals with autism and their families. As a result of our study, whether touching the areas the children want touched and listening to their favorite music are required to stimulate the brain remain as questions in our minds.
