What is a Robotic Walking Device?

Nowadays, with the rapid advancement of technology, innovative devices and treatment methods are frequently on the agenda in the health sector. One of these innovations is robotic walking devices. However, many people may not know exactly what a robotic walking device is and how it works.

These groundbreaking devices in the field of physical therapy and rehabilitation play a major role in helping paralyzed patients regain their walking ability. However, robotic walking devices have become an effective rehabilitation tool not only for paralyzed patients but also for individuals with various neurological and musculoskeletal disorders.

Robotic walking devices, as the name suggests, are devices that encourage people to walk again and facilitate this process with mechanical support. Its basic working principle is an exoskeleton attached to the human body, allowing individuals with limited mobility to stand and perform walking movements. These robotic systems are designed specifically for the lower extremities, that is, the legs.

Robotic walking devices offered in our Robotic Rehabilitation Center are offered with patient-oriented and individualized programs, and special treatment plans are prepared in line with the patient's current condition and recovery goals. During the use of these devices, patients receive the necessary support and guidance under the supervision of professional physical therapists.

The operation of robotic walking devices is supported by sensors, motors, computer-controlled algorithms and patient-specific software. The sensors on the device constantly monitor and analyze the patient's movements and muscle activities. This information is used by the motors to produce optimized commands to provide the necessary movements during walking. As a result, the patient's walking patterns are gradually improved towards improving weight bearing and balancing functions.

The treatment process with a robotic walking device usually begins with walking training in a specially adjusted exercise program accompanied by a physiotherapist. In this first stage, while the patient's safety is kept at the highest level, the device controls his movements and helps the patient progress in walking scenarios of varying complexity. As treatment progresses, more work is done on the patient's muscle strength, coordination and walking performance, increasing the complexity of the treatment process.

Our Robotic Rehabilitation Center aims to provide maximum independence and quality of life to its patients by using such high-tech rehabilitation devices and constantly incorporates up-to-date treatment methods to achieve this goal. Robotic walking devices enable patients to re-engage in social life and, in a sense, take a new step into life by enabling them to discover their physical possibilities. For this reason, as Robotic Rehabilitation Center, we attach great importance to treatment with robotic walking devices.

The benefits provided by the device are not limited to eliminating physical problems; It also supports the mental and emotional healing process of patients. This equipment, which provides freedom of movement, is an important tool in restoring patients' self-esteem and independence.
