 LiteGait®
LiteGait® is a partial weight bearing gait and balance training device that can simultaneously control weightbearing, posture, and balance over a treadmill or over ground. LiteGait® provides proper posture, reduces weight bearing, eliminates concerns for balance, and facilitates the training of coordinated lower extremity movement. It can allow for the progression of weight bearing from non to full weight bearing while allowing the therapist to manually assist the lower extremities and pelvis to achieve proper gait patterns.
LiteGait® used in conjunction with other therapy techniques can help increase gait speed, improve the gait pattern and gait efficiency, promote full and equal weightbearing, facilitate proper posture and joint alignment in standing and improved postural stability. LiteGait® can also be used in working with small children in kneeling and quadraped (hands and knees).
Please ask your therapist any questions you may have regarding LiteGait® as well as visit www.LiteGait.com.
