Abstract
The effect of a wristband on the dynamic balance of young adults was assessed. Twenty healthy young adults wore a commercial Power BalanceT or fake silicone wristband. A 3D accelerometer was attached to their lumbar region to measure body sway. They played the video game Tightrope (Wii video game console) with and without a wristband; body sway acceleration was measured. Mean balance sway acceleration and its variability were the same in all conditions, so silicone wristbands do not modify dynamic balance control.
