Exploring lateralized sensorimotor processing using somatosensory evoked potentials
(2017-08-01)
Differences exist between the two upper limbs in the chosen motor control strategy when moving in dynamic environments. To date, a large body of literature has explored these differences but few studies have incorporated ...
Motor training and cervical spine manipulation: effects on sensorimotor integration
(2012-07-01)
Altered afferent input resulting from neck joint dysfunction has become a growing area of study. Cervical spine manipulation, specifically in individuals with subclinical neck pain (SNCP); induces neurological changes, ...
Cortical and cerebellar motor processing changes subsequent to motor training and cervical spine manipulation
(2012-07-01)
Chronic neck pain, including subclinical neck pain (SCNP), is a significant problem that places a burden on the healthcare system. Chiropractic manipulation has shown not only to be effective in treating symptoms of neck ...
Assessing neurophysiological and behavioural outcomes of the proximal upper limb muscles in response to novel motor skill acquisition
(2017-08-01)
A single session of motor training with the distal upper limb muscles leads to changes in brain and spinal cord processing. However, the neuroplastic response of the proximal upper limb muscles to novel motor training has ...
Measuring the effects of subclinical neck pain on sensorimotor integration using electroencephalography event related potentials and source localization
(2017-11-01)
Subclinical neck pain (SCNP) is recurrent neck pain that has not yet been treated. This thesis investigated whether acute pain affects motor learning acquisition in SCNP vs. healthy individuals. 10 healthy and 10 SCNP ...
