ClinConnect Summary

Proprioception is one of the most important mechanisms involved in ensuring the optimal position of the wrist to prevent injuries. It occurs through stimuli from different structures such as muscle, tendon, joint capsule and skin and provides the perception of the joint's position and movement characteristics (direction, speed, etc.). This perception is essential for effective and safe motor performance. Previous studies have provided evidence that proprioceptive training yields improvements in somatosensory and sensorimotor function. Furthermore, a relationship between the loss of proprioc...
