Brief Description

Description :

Portable Harness Ambulatory System is a gait supporting aid for patients undergoing gait rehabilitation. It helps in eliminating / minimizing fall and fear of fall in patients during rehabilitation therapy. It is used in physical therapy and exercise training for people with neurological or musculoskeletal injuries or muscle weakness. It supports patient by using a body harness and patient is lifted partially against gravity. The amount of support provided is dependent on the musculoskeletal strength and stability of the patient. Suspension systems function by offsetting a percentage of body mass while providing balance Support. Gait rehabilitation therapy/training using Portable Harness Ambulatory System (PHAS) are more effective and efficient
