Abstract

In the course of a patient with neurological problems relearning his functional activities, the therapist has to assess his potential for recovery and to remove the factors which obstruct the patient's abilities to function. Most patients have problems with their postural control and it disturbs their functional activities. Taking into account the appearance of voluntary movements needing anticipatory postural adjustments, and the many different kinds of sensory information needed for postural control, the processes of relearning postural control are important as the neurological base of adaptive behavior. This paper focuses on components of postural control from the clinical aspect, and the assessment and treatment approach for patients who have neurological problems.<br>
