Electrically Induced Sensory Trick in a Patient with Musician’s Dystonia: A Case Report
Brain Sciences, 2023 A sensory trick is a specific maneuver that temporarily improves focal dystonia. We describe a case of musician’s dystonia in the right-hand fingers of a patient, who showed good and immediate improvement after using an electrical stimulation-mimicking ...

Impact of Gentle Touch Stimulation Combined with Advanced Sensory Stimulation in Patients in a Minimally Conscious State: A Quasi-Randomized Clinical Trial [PDF]
LifeTouch, particularly affective touch mediated by C-tactile fibers, plays a key role in emotional regulation and therapeutic interventions. However, tactile stimulation is underutilized in sensory stimulation (SS) protocols for brain injury patients ...

Beta-frequency sensory stimulation enhances gait rhythmicity through strengthened coupling between striatal networks and stepping movement [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsStepping movement is delta (1–4 Hz) rhythmic and depends on sensory inputs. Stepping-related delta-rhythmic neural activity is coupled to beta (10–30 Hz) frequency dynamics that are also prominent in sensorimotor circuits.

Sensory stimulation in acute stroke therapy [PDF]
Journal of Cerebral Blood Flow and Metabolism, 2018 The beneficial effects of cortical activation for functional recovery after ischemic stroke have been well described. However, little is known about the role of early sensory stimulation, i.e. stimulation during first 6 h after stroke onset even during acute treatment.

The influence of deep sensory foot stimulation on balance and gait function in patients with hemiparesis [PDF]
Rehabilitacja Medyczna, 2018 Background: Current research emphasizes the importance of sensory afference for movement control. Multisensory information may be processed in the brain even when its damage is located in multimodal association areas and specific sensory cortex.
