Age-related or disorder-induced changes of the central nervous system and the musculoskeletal system lead an impairment of postural stability. While considerable effort has been provided to archive better recovery from postural disorders, current therapeutic approaches in the rehabilitation field are still insufficient to accomplish this. Our group has been recently developed a real-time postural feedback system in order to establish a novel rehabilitation strategy for the adjustment of the postural control. The developed system can implicitly modulate subject's body sway decreasing (in-phase) or increasing (anti-phase). In this perspective paper, we firstly explain the concept of our newly developed system and its potential effectiveness for the improvement of postural control, and will then, secondly introduce some examples of the clinical attempt to use our system for various type of postural disorders.
