Healthy humans
Conditions
Interventions
A group of 31 healthy individuals underwent postural evaluation, where the synergy between the anterior and gastrocnemius muscles was evaluated through surface electromyography. Then, the Romberg test
in the second, negative neurosensory stimuli were provided, such as making him think of something that irritates him. Both evaluations had duration of 20 seconds each, with a time interval of 5 second

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| In the first evaluation, the individual was influenced to think of something positive, such as good memories and good experiences, to generate a positive stimulus and the tendency would be that the posture would be diverted forward, predominating the activation of the gastrocnemius. In the second stimulus, the individual was influenced to think of something negative, such as trauma or anger, to generate a negative stimulus and the tendency would be for the posture to be diverted backwards, activating the anterior tibial muscle.;The mean is a mean of 4.32 microvolts of the anterior tibial muscle, with an excess of scores of 0.3 to 17.8, after the positive sensorineural ones. In the gastrocnemius, it is possible to observe an average depolarization of 7.47 microvolts, also with a high variation, ranging from 1.4 to 21.5. After the negative neurosensory stimuli the anterior tibial depolarized an average of 5.62 microvolts, with a variation that ranges from 1.7 to 24, already in the gastrocnemius, it is possible to observe a mean of 6.72 microvolts, with a variation of 1.4 to 21.6. | — |
