AposTherapy Biomechanical System
The device is comprised of four adjustable modular elements attached to foot-worn platforms that are capable of manipulating the foot's center-of-pressure and applying perturbation training throughout the gait cycle. The device allows for neuromuscular training during dynamic loading.
Physical Therapy Program
Their therapy program will be similar to the experimental group, but without the treatment device (placebo walking shoe).
