Lokomat®

Locomotion therapy supported by an automated gait orthosis on a treadmill has established itself as an effective intervention for improving over-ground walking function caused by neurological diseases and injuries. The Lokomat is the first driven gait orthosis that assists walking movements of gait-impaired patients and is used to improve mobility in individuals following stroke, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, multiple sclerosis or other neurological diseases and injuries.
 
 
Advantages of Lokomat® based therapy:

• A driven robotic gait orthosis guides the patient’s legs on a treadmill offering a wide range of training possibilities
• Faster progress through longer and more intensive training sessions compared to manual treadmill training
• Physical strain on therapists is relieved, single operator mode
• Patient walking activity is easily monitored and assessed
• Improved motivation through visualized performance feedback
• Gait pattern and guidance force are individually adjustable to the patient‘s needs
