Stabilometric Biofeedback Training in Cognitive and Affective Function Improvement. Contribution of the Russian...

Area of Science:

• Neuroscience
• Rehabilitation Medicine
• Psychology

Background:

• This review critically analyzes recent literature on stabilometric biofeedback for postural control.
• It examines the association between postural control, biofeedback training, and psychological functions.
• The focus is on the second part of a critical analysis of Russian and international research.

Purpose of the Study:

• To review studies on postural control in chronic pain syndrome, chronic fatigue syndrome, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, and depression.
• To highlight the contributions of Russian researchers in stabilometric biofeedback.
• To propose a paradigm for using stabilometric biofeedback for cognitive and affective function training.

Main Methods:

• Critical analysis of recent scientific papers.
• Literature review focusing on stabilometric parameters and postural control.
• Synthesis of findings related to psychological functions and neurological disorders.

Main Results:

• Studies on postural control in chronic pain, chronic fatigue, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, and depression were presented.
• The significant role of Russian scientists in developing and applying stabilometric biofeedback was recognized.
• Evidence suggests the utility of biofeedback in rehabilitation and neurological correction.

Conclusions:

• Stabilometric biofeedback is a valuable tool in rehabilitation and training for optimal functioning.
• The application of stabilometric biofeedback extends to the correction of neurological disorders.
• A new paradigm for training cognitive and affective functions using stabilometric biofeedback is proposed.
