Abstract

Date Presented 4/16/2015

This study involved the pilot of a novel virtual reality gaming intervention designed to improve sensory adaptation for balance control among children with fetal alcohol spectrum disorders. Findings of improved balance and motor performance are discussed along with implications for home-based telerehabilitation.
