The purpose of this study was to verify whether training with the device improves reactive postural control, and to measure leg muscle activity during the standing posture to see if there are any factors that contribute to the improvement. Multiple measures of COP data showed that training improved reactive postural control in response to unexpected disturbances in the trained group. In addition, multiple measures of muscle activity showed that the dominant leg muscle activity changed when the unexpected disturbance came from the opposite side of the dominant leg, suggesting that training with WBTD seemly improvement reactive balance function immediately.
