Part 3: Success Stories and Broader Impact
Post Title: Enhancing Rehabilitation with the Gait Harness System: Success Stories and Broader Impact
Post Content:
In the final part of our series, we share inspiring success stories and discuss the broader impact of using the Gait Harness System (GHS).
Success Stories: Overcoming the Hump
I have numerous examples of people overcoming significant challenges, regaining their function with the support of a dedicated therapy team from home and in the clinic. One such person is Knute. Knute was 11 years old when he experienced a traumatic brain injury following an automobile accident. He had not walked since, being at high risk for falls. Twenty-two years later, Knute began his journey with the GHS.
Knute learned to walk again without any braces or computerized assistance, safely with trained family members and staff members using the GHS. He began walking just a few steps and now walks up to 800 feet per session. After 23 wheelchair-bound years, Knute has made remarkable progress in a short period of time and continues to surpass expectations. His story is a testament to the power of consistent, challenging therapy and the GHS’s role in providing the necessary support for overground training. Knute experienced the stimulation and sensation of sensory feedback with his feet on the ground and moving his legs, which were critical in helping him get over the hump. Knute’s success is a powerful example of the progress that can be achieved when patients are challenged at the level they need.
The Bigger Picture
According to pre-COVID data from the CDC, about 40 million people in the home are confined or need help walking every day. This number has likely increased due to COVID-related health issues that have affected people's ability to walk since 2020. There is so much more that can be done for these individuals, and the GHS is a crucial tool in this effort.
Conclusion
While initial hesitation is natural, the overwhelming evidence and extensive experience with the GHS highlight that there is no better time to start using the system than right now. By doing so, you can take a significant step towards helping your patients regain their mobility and independence.

No Matter Why You Like to Run – We’ve Got You!
People get out & run for lots of reasons. The mental, physical & social benefits are too numerous to count! A recent article in Runners World even cites evidence that runners live longer & are less likely to suffer heart attack/stroke.
However, the repetitive impact of all those foot strikes can take a toll on your muscles, joints & connective tissue. Studies show injuries to the knees, legs & feet are the most common areas for runners. And that’s where we can help!
Running injuries are generally multi-factorial & require a correct diagnosis for definitive treatment. That’s why we use a comprehensive approach to evaluation & treatment. With an accurate diagnosis we’ll move forward with wide-ranging services including; custom crafted orthotics (shoe-inserts), dry needling, licensed massage therapy, myofascial release (similar to ART), cupping, sports taping & FAKTR Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization.
Our Patients who are runners trust our Board Certified Sports Medicine Doctors because they have the knowledge, training & experience to quickly get them back outside doing what they love.

More insight into our work with Cambridge University Boat Club, especially Milosz's osteopathic treatment and injury prevention strategies.
In this episode of Last Stroke Counts, we dive into the world of rowing innovations and performance with Milosz Wrobel and Gosia Bieniek from Cambridge's Light Blue Clinic.
Milosz and Gosia share their extensive background in sports science, conditioning and osteopathy, revealing how their passion for sport led them to establish a clinic dedicated to improving the health and performance of athletes through the means of cryo and physical therapy. They discuss the groundbreaking benefits of cryotherapy for recovery, and injury prevention plus how it can significantly enhance a rower's performance on the water due to better technical ability through enhanced mobility.
The conversation further explores strength and conditioning strategies tailored for rowers, focusing on preventing common injuries, particularly back issues, that many rowers face. Milosz, an osteopath for the Cambridge University Boat Club, breaks down the essentials of stretching, conditioning & mobility training and tells us which muscle group prove to be problematic and commonly occurring for rowers.
So, tune in & join us as we uncover the secrets behind staying injury-free, improving performance through cryotherapy, and the science-backed training methods that could very well be the secret weapon for achieving free speed. Milosz and Gosia from Light Blue Clinic provide a masterclass in rowing wellness and performance, offering valuable knowledge for rowers at all levels - where every last stroke counts. #theboatrace#cambridge#injuryhttps://lnkd.in/exPiheDi
