Locomotor Training is a body-weight supported treadmill program aimed to stimulate the nervous system.
It is an intensive program developed in the USA that promotes recovery focusing on posture, standing and walking patterns. This form of training is supported by three highly skilled therapists who, with manual guidance, facilitate stepping and standing tasks to retrain the nervous system.
Research conducted in Locomotor Training has shown improvements in walking function, general mobility, trunk control and general health benefits.
NeuroMoves is the only facility in Australia to deliver Locomotor Training trained under the NeuroRecovery Network, Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation in the USA.
