This development could revolutionize lives, both present and future, by bestowing the gift of vertical mobility to individuals suffering from spinal cord injuries and a host of other conditions that cause them to have walking impairments. Those who can benefit most from this equipment are wheel chair restricted individuals, suffering from paraplegia. A mobility device such as this would have the power to transform the lives of countless individuals not only physically, but mentally and emotionally. ReWalk will enable them to stand up-right, walk and climb stairs thus, improving circulation, bone density, and their overall health. In addition, they will gain a sense of normalcy and independence. Currently, ReWalk is undergoing clinical trials exclusively at Moss Rehab in Elkins Park, Pennsylvania to gain further knowledge, which will be used to help with developmental improvements for the future.
