Introduction: To execute a movement, it is necessary to start from a stable position in different positions of the motor sequence. This involves the entire nervous system, skeletal muscles, and various postural reflexes. Postural responses, resulting from the integration of visual, vestibular, and proprioceptive input, are reflexive in the cortex and other structures, although subject to conscious adjustments by the subject. Therefore, we sought to determine the characteristics of static postural control in a group of young adults, dependent on input from the proprioceptive system, as a basis for rehabilitation.
