One means of achieving this is via galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS), a simple procedure in which tiny, electrical currents are discharged to the part of the scalp overlying the vestibular nerves. Attempts to remediate neglect with GVS have utilised only a single session of stimulation, and although this can induce spontaneous recovery, symptoms resurface soon after stimulation. Here we assessed whether repeated sessions induce longer carry-over.  \nMethods: Two individuals diagnosed with neglect post-stroke received five days of sub-sensory, left anodal GVS. Performance was assessed via the letter and star cancellation tasks of the Behavioural Inattention Test on four occasions; three days before the start of stimulation, on the first and last day of stimulation, and three-days after stimulation.  \nResults: Analyses of variance indicated that both participants missed significantly fewer targets in both tasks on the fifth day of stimulation compared to baseline. More so, this improvement was still evident at follow-up three days later.  \nConclusion: The results strengthen the need for a larger, sham-controlled trial to establish whether repeated GVS provides lasting relief from neglect.  \nIntroduction  \nVisuo-spatial neglect is a disabling, neurological condition commonly acquired through stroke, and is characterised by an impaired ability to respond to visual stimuli presented in contralesional space. The condition most frequently occurs following a lesion to the right hemisphere, inducing a tendency to collide with leftsided objects and ignore people who approach from the left [1] .
