AB  - THE  CONTROL  OF  POSTURE  INVOLVES  TWO  INTERRELATED  GOALS,  equilibrium  (balance)  and  orientation,  crucial  for  most  tasks  of  daily  living.  Balance  control  maintains  the  body  in  stable  equilibrium  to  avoid  falls.  Orientation  aligns  the  body  segments  with  respect  to  each  other  and  to  the  world,  such  as  maintaining  the  head  vertical.  Both  balance  and  orientation  use  several  different  types  of  control:  automatic  postural  responses,  anticipatory  postural  adjustments,  postural  sway  in  stance,  sensory  integration  for  a  body  schema,  orientation  to  vertical,  and  dynamic  stability  during  gait.
