Re: Locomat for gait training

Bill,

Haven't tried it myself, but if leg muscles have already atrophied, it won't

strengthen them.

Hi Gretchen,

Not sure if strengthening leg muscles is their claim or objective in use for

neuromuscular disorders like ours. It could be in people with other types of

disabilities, just not ours at this time. I'm using it and it is being billed to

my Ins. Co. as neuromuscular re-education. BTW....the correct spelling is

Lokomat and it is a " hoot " while walking with it using all the correct muscles

which haven't been used correctly in some time....Bill
