NewGait

For individuals like Ruth Grimsby, living with hip arthritis and chronic pain meant facing limited mobility, frustration, and unsuccessful treatments. After trying traditional therapy with little relief, she feared she had run out of options. Then she found NewGait. By integrating dynamic assistance and neuromuscular re-education, Ruth saw measurable improvements in pain management, gait efficiency, and overall mobility—restoring confidence in her ability to move again. Her journey is a powerful reminder that innovative rehabilitation tools can create life-changing results, especially when conventional approaches fall short. #gaitrehab #painmanagement #painrelief #chronicpain #chronicpainwarrior #chronicpainmanagement #stability #balance #footdrop #rehab

POV: You refused to give up despite difficulties. ??? Margie D’Angelo faced progressive mobility challenges after being diagnosed with Atypical Parkinsonism and suspected Multiple System Atrophy (MSA). Walking became harder, but she wasn’t ready to stop moving. Then she found NewGait. With its dynamic assistance and proprioceptive feedback, Margie experienced improvements in gait, balance, and stability—things she once thought were slipping away. #ParkinsonsAwareness #Parkinsons #Atrophy #MobilityMatters #Balance #Stability #GaitRehab #GaitTraining #NeuroTherapy

Cerebral Palsy (CP) is primarily known for its impact on movement and coordination, but its relationship with cognitive function is often misunderstood. While some individuals with CP may experience intellectual disabilities, others have average or above-average intelligence. ?? CP is a neurological disorder – While it affects motor control, its impact on intelligence depends on which areas of the brain are affected. ?? Not all individuals with CP have cognitive impairments – Up to 50% of people with CP may experience challenges with learning, memory, or problem-solving, but CP and intellectual disability are not the same condition. ?? Severity matters – More severe motor impairments may correlate with cognitive challenges, but each individual’s experience is unique. Understanding how CP affects the brain allows for better support, early intervention, and personalized therapies to help individuals reach their full potential. Curious to learn more?

For individuals living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS), mobility challenges, balance impairments, and fatigue can significantly impact daily life and independence. Gait dysfunction and foot drop are common symptoms that make walking more difficult, increasing the risk of falls and energy depletion. This is where NewGait makes a difference. NewGait is an innovative wearable rehabilitation device that provides dynamic assistance and proprioceptive feedback, helping individuals with MS move more efficiently and confidently. ?? Improves Gait & Reduces Foot Drop – Supports proper step mechanics, assisting in foot clearance and reducing the risk of dragging or tripping. ?? Enhances Balance & Stability – Strengthens postural control and core engagement, which helps prevent falls and improves walking confidence. ?? Reduces Fatigue & Conserves Energy – MS-related muscle weakness and fatigue can make walking exhausting. NewGait optimizes muscle activation, allowing users to move with less effort and greater endurance. ?? Supports Neuromuscular Re-Education – Provides sensory feedback to retrain the brain and muscles to work together more effectively, improving overall coordination. MS can make movement unpredictable, but NewGait offers a proactive solution, empowering individuals to walk longer distances, reduce fall risk, and regain mobility.
