Locomotion in mammals depends on central pattern generators — networks of spinal interneurons that can produce rhythmic outputs independently of any modulatory input. However, the spinal activity ...
How did the bodies of animals, including ours, become such fine-tuned movement machines? This paper cuts directly into critical debates about how the ancient spinal cord and the relatively new human ...
Spinal cord circuitry, not the brain, controls reflexes for smooth movements, as revealed in a study. This could pave the way for newer neurological disorder therapies. An intriguing question has ...
Background: The use of external ankle support is widespread throughout sports medicine. However, the application of ankle bracing to a healthy ankle over a long period has been scrutinised because of ...
Visual feedback is just as important as a sense of body position when it comes to the involuntary reflexes that activate muscle movement, says a new study. Visual feedback is just as important as a ...
The MDF® Taylor 2.0 Hammer is a Taylor-style hammer with a patented weighted design co-developed with Dr. Douglas Lanska. It accurately and effectively elicits muscle stretch reflexes, superficial or ...
