A soft ankle brace increases soleus Hoffman reflex amplitude but does not modify presynaptic inhibition during upright standing

Highlights • Wearing a soft ankle brace increases the soleus H-reflex amplitude. • The Ia presynaptic inhibition is not altered by a soft ankle brace. • Cutaneous receptors stimulation is likely to increase the Ia afferent signal. • The central regulation of posture is modified when wearing a soft a...
