The phenomenon of interaction between simultaneous kinesthetic stim¬uli and their reciprocal relations, when applied to symmetrical extremities, was investi¬gated among a normal population of 20 people and among 16 hemiplegic clients (unilateral upper and lower limb paralysis). As a result, there was no significance in the rate of simultaneous movement between right and left limb in the normal subjects. On the contrary, among the hemiplegic clients there was a significant decrease in the rate of simultaneous movement in both, affected and healthy limbs. The tendency of Brunnstroms functional recovery levels deterioration was remarkable not only in the rate of movement of the paralyzed side but also in simultaneous volition¬al alternating movement of the normal side. In addition to these results, according to all administrated tests, the improvement of the clients were to move the healthy limb before moving the affected one. This interaction is belived to be the phenomenon of interference of two rival stimuli known in every field of perception; It may also be the same properties of extinction in the perception of two simultaneous stimuli. These results may imply that we, physiotherapists should pay attention to the involved limbs as well as the healthy ones and emphasize bilateral motor coordination in treatment.
