The Lokomat uses robot-assisted therapy enabling effective and intensive training to increase the strength of muscles and the range of motion of joints in order to improve walking.
The physiological movement of the lower extremities is ensured by the individually adjustable patient interface. Additionally, the hip and knee joint angles can be adjusted during training to the patient’s specific needs.
The Lokomat allows therapists to focus on the patient and the actual therapy. It enhances staff efficiency and safety, leading to higher training intensity, more treatments per therapist, and consistent, superior patient care. The Augmented Performance Feedback (APF) maximizes the effect of Lokomat training as shown by studies considerably increasing muscle activation.
