Locomotion and Posture in Older Adults: The Role of Aging and Movement Disorders, 2nd Edition is a comprehensive Springer reference dedicated to gait, balance, posture, motor control, aging, and neurological movement disorders.
This updated edition explores how aging affects walking, balance, postural control, motor planning, sensory integration, and daily movement performance. It also examines how these challenges become more complex when older adults are affected by movement disorders such as Parkinson’s disease, chorea, dystonia, Huntington’s disease, multiple sclerosis, and other neurological conditions.
Written for clinicians, researchers, rehabilitation professionals, physical therapists, occupational therapists, neurologists, geriatric specialists, and movement science professionals, this book provides a multidisciplinary view of how older adults move, adapt, compensate, and respond to rehabilitation strategies.
This reference examines the complex interaction between the musculoskeletal, sensory, cognitive, and neural systems involved in walking and maintaining posture. Earlier Springer material describes the book’s focus on how aging and movement disorders impair motor control during walking and postural tasks.
The 2nd edition expands this focus with updated research on gait, posture, movement control, rehabilitation strategies, assistive technologies, and the role of modern assessment approaches in older adults. ResearchGate’s indexed description notes that the 2025 edition includes discussion of innovative rehabilitation strategies and artificial intelligence in gait and posture research.
Mobility decline, balance impairment, and gait disorders are major clinical concerns in aging populations. This book helps readers understand the mechanisms behind these changes and how neurological disorders can worsen locomotion and postural control.
For rehabilitation and clinical practice, it provides a strong scientific foundation for evaluating movement problems, designing interventions, and supporting safer mobility and independence in older adults.
