Gait Rehabilitation
Gait rehabilitation is a therapeutic process aimed at improving a person's walking ability. It is often used for individuals recovering from injuries, surgeries, or conditions like stroke or Parkinson's disease. The rehabilitation may involve exercises, balance training, and the use of assistive devices to enhance mobility and stability.
Therapists assess a patient's gait patterns to identify issues and develop personalized treatment plans. Techniques may include strength training, coordination exercises, and the use of treadmills or walking aids. The goal is to restore functional mobility, increase independence, and improve overall quality of life.
