Voluntary Upper-Extremity Movements in Patients With Unilateral Peripheral Vestibular Hypofunction [PDF]
Physical Therapy, 2002 AbstractBackground and Purpose. People with peripheral vestibular pathology demonstrate motor impairments when responding and adapting to postural platform perturbations and during performance of sit-to-stand and locomotor tasks. This study investigated the influence of unilateral peripheral vestibular hypofunction on voluntary arm movement.

Effects of a walking program in patients with chronic unilateral vestibular hypofunction. [PDF]
J Phys Ther Sci, 2022 [Purpose] Patients with chronic unilateral vestibular hypofunction show decreased postural stability and low levels of physical activity and also experience much anxiety. Physical activity is known to improve these symptoms; however, no study has reported any positive effects of physical activity, such as symptom reduction or improvement in function in
