Centrifugation Distance
To determine optimal distance off-axis, participants were rotated in a darkened rotary chair booth with 1 ear positioned 3.5 cm off-axis and the other ear positioned on-axis for 1 minute. Participants received 5 sessions in a 1-week period. Following a 2-week washout period, participants were rotated in a darkened rotary chair booth with 1 ear positioned 7.0 cm off-axis and the other ear positioned on-axis for 1 minute. Participants received 5 sessions in a 1-week period.
Centrifugation Duration
To determine optimal duration, after a two week washout period, participants were rotated off-axis at 3.5 cm (determined to be optimal in Exp 1) for 3 minutes. Participants received 5 sessions in a 1-week period.
Centrifugation Schedule
To determine optimal schedule, after a two week washout period, participants were rotated off-axis at 3.5 cm (determined to be optimal in Exp 1) for 3 minutes (determined to be optimal in Exp 2). Participants received biweekly sessions for a total of 5 sessions.
