The Gait LabStory
The Gait Lab started on the the belief that our customers' needs are of the utmost importance and as a result our team is committed to meeting those needs.
​
Our Gait (walking/movement) analysis technology is at the core of what we do. The technology is interactive and easy to understand as you experience the gait analysis sessions. As we work together to analyze your gait/walking/movement, we improve our understanding of your walking challenges and work to both design assistive devices and create meaningful outcome markers, track progress in real time and facilitate performance outcomes.
​
If you have suffered a stroke, brain injury, lower or upper limb paralysis, neurological deficit, suffer from Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson's Disease, Cerebral Palsy, an orthopedic deficit or other foot and ankle challenges or pain that complicates your ability to walk and get around the community, The Gait Lab is the place to visit.
​
We welcome the ability to connect and work with you.
