This innovative therapy is a robotic driven gait orthosis that automates locomotion therapy on a treadmill. Adult and pediatric patients affected by a spinal cord injury, stroke, neuromuscular disease or traumatic brain injury and have lost their ability to walk are being treated effectively. The patient is suspended in a harness over a treadmill to begin the session. The robotic frame moves the legs in a natural walking pattern. The pace of walking is calculated by a computer and measures the response to the movement.
