| Measure | Description | Time Frame |

| Vestibular Activity | The primary outcome corresponds to the vestibular activity. The vestibular stimulation provided by the rotatory chair is sensed by the inner ear´s vestibular receptors and generates reflex ocular movements(Vestibulo Ocular Reflex) registrated by electronystagmography. The main outcome corresponds to the asymmetry of the vestibular activity between both ears. | Vestibular rotatory test for each participant is about 50- 60 minutes. One rotatory test per participant. |
