PoNS™ (ponstherapy.com), short for Portable Neuromodulation Stimulator, is an innovative medical device. It is inclusive of a controller and mouthpiece, that delivers mild stimulation to the surface of the tongue. This stimulation triggers a flow of neural impulses to the brain structures that control balance and gait. PoNS is meant to be used in conjunction with supervised therapeutic activity, referred to as, PoNS Therapy™. Use of the device while engaging in movement and coordination tasks promotes neuromodulation, activating brain pathways to help improve balance and gait.
