The findings reach people, from one lab or study. 1 lab in 1 country.
“Thus, the results indicated that after 10 weeks of training, there could be a significant improvement in dynamic balance performance in the sole and trunk training groups compared with the control group.”
None of its findings points the other way.

What did studies of tactile sensory stimulation training find?
2Studies of tactile sensory stimulation training measured 2 outcomes; the most studied are trunk vibratory sensitivity (1 study) and dynamic standing balance (1).

Tactile sensory stimulation training improves trunk vibratory sensitivity in humans (two stimuli presentation).
“The rate of correctly guessing the presence of the two stimuli tended to be higher in both the trunk and sole training groups compared with the control group (p < 0.001).”

Tactile sensory stimulation training improves dynamic standing balance in humans after 10 weeks of training.
“Thus, the results indicated that after 10 weeks of training, there could be a significant improvement in dynamic balance performance in the sole and trunk training groups compared with the control group.”
