About diagnosis, treatment and recovery
Who is robotic gait therapy suitable for?
It is considered for patients with loss of walking or a marked gait disorder of neurological origin. Suitability is decided at the physiatrist examination, taking skin integrity, joint range of motion, bone density and general medical condition into account.
How long is a session and how many are needed?
Sessions are typically 30–45 minutes and are scheduled several days a week. The total number depends on the diagnosis, the starting level and the progress seen at interim measurements; no standard number is given.
Is it painful — is it safe?
The therapy is not painful; muscle fatigue may be felt in the first sessions. The system runs with safety sensors and a physiotherapist is with you throughout; it is stopped immediately if you feel any discomfort.
Does it replace conventional physiotherapy?
No — it does not replace it; it complements it. Robotic sessions provide high repetition, while manual physiotherapy works on balance, strength and daily-living skills. The two are planned together within the same program.
When should it start?
Assessment as early as possible is preferred once the general medical condition is stable. If the early period is not suitable, the program continues with conventional approaches until it becomes appropriate.
How does the process work for international patients?
Remote assessment, visa invitation, transfer, accommodation and a medical interpreter are coordinated from a single point; after your return, a home continuation program and tele-medicine check-ups continue.
