Holding a handle for balance during continuous postural perturbations – immediate and transitionary effects on whole body posture
When balance is exposed to perturbations, hand contacts are often used to assist postural control. We investigated the immediate and the transitionary effects of supportive hand contacts during continuous anteroposterior perturbations of stance by automated waist-pulls. Ten young adults were perturb...
