Therapeutic Effects of Electrical Vestibular Stimulation (EVS) on Balance and Gait
Sponsor: Neursantys Inc
Summary
The aim of the study to is determine the safety, feasibility, efficacy, and persistence of non-invasive EVS to improve balance and gait performance in healthy individuals across the lifespan. Specifically, our objective is to measure balance and gait performance before, during and after exposure to single sessions and across repeated sequences of EVS at multiple study partner sites.
