PoNS Neuromodulation
sea to sky sports physio
PoNS™ (short for Portable Neuromodulation Stimulator) is an innovative, non -surgical medical device that gently stimulates the surface of the tongue, exciting the neural network flowing to the brain. This neural activity is believed to enable neuroplasticity, which may restore lost function. In conjunction with targeted therapeutic activities, the PoNS™ has the potential to restore:
● Balance in individuals with chronic balance deficit due to a mild or moderate traumatic brain injury or concussion.
● Gait in individuals with gait deficit due to mild to moderate symptoms of multiple sclerosis
More About Neuroplasticity
Neuroplasticity is the brain’s incredible ability to change. Over a lifetime, one’s brain constantly reorganizes itself to form new neural connections in response to changing needs. PoNS Treatment™ leverages this important healing process. Injury or disease can damage or disrupt the connections in the brain. By supporting the brain’s ability to rebuild connections, it may be possible for the brain to compensate for the damage caused by injury or disease. While this process typically happens over a long period of time, it may be accelerated by neuromodulation techniques that utilize non-surgical devices, such as PoNS™.
