Abstract
A neuroplasticity vertigo treatment device for subjects who suffer from a balance disorder that limits the ability to stand or walk without holding onto an external support. The device is characterized by a wearable body prosthesis or harness with gyroscopic stabilization that either selectively locks or produces a torque in the same axis but opposite to the direction of an imbalanced movement by a subject wearing the device.
