Improving Clinical Access to Robotic and Innovative Walking Aids

This study is designed to see if a robotic gait training program can be effectively run in a clinical setting. It will also assess if the program can help participants to reach their goals. Participants will work with researchers to develop a training program using the robotic gait trainer. This program will aim to help participants reach their goals.
