Postural effects of neck muscle vibration in man
Abstract
Vibration of the dorsal neck muscles in man induces falling reactions, walking and "marche en étoile", probably by muscle afferent activation. It can be used as a reproducible error signal in analyzing the interaction between neck muscle proprioception and vestibular as well as ocular motor systems. These interactions are important for posture and coordinated head-eye movements.
