Neurofeedback to improve physical balance, incontinence, and swallowing

Abstract

An innovative neurofeedback protocol for the treatment of problems with physical balance, incontinence, and swallowing is described. Successful case reports from four consecutively treated cases are presented. This protocol holds potential promise for work with the elderly, stroke and head injury patients, primary nocturnal enuresis, and in peak performance training where balance is important. Further controlled research is warranted. © 2005 by The Haworth Press, Inc. All rights reserved.
