PoNs™ Portable Neuromodulation Stimulator
PoNS stands for Portable Neuromodulation Stimulator device. This device uses electrical stimulation to the tongue which travels through large nerve branches to the brainstem. This surge of electrical activity in the region can activate (or reactivate) pathways within the brain and promote neuroplasticity (your brain’s ability to learn and rewire itself), particularly in the area of the brain that controls gait and balance, so it’s helpful in improving the ability to walk and move safely and prevent falls.
