  • I'm not sure, all I know is my doctor suggested it to my orthopedic surgeon :)

  • Do u think this Device will help people with muscles problems since born ? where is the hospital she was treated at ???

  • @MeMoza I was introduced to the device at my local Hanger orthopedic center. :) If you can meet with an orthopedic surgeon you'd be able to get much more info on whether or not it'd work for you. :)

  • @PeaceLoveChristofer Thank you :)

  • @MeMoza you're very welcome, Good Luck! I hope the WalkAide works for you!  They tested it on my paralyzed leg about 2 years ago & my nerves didn't respond the way they'd hoped, but we tessted it again 3 days ago and found out I'm perfectly eligible, so if at first it doesn't work but they have hope try again. :)

  • @PeaceLoveChristofer

    I have 2 of my Nieces who have walking problems & they both use walker to help them walking :( so i was thinking this might help them !!

  • @MeMoza You should definitely have an orthopedic surgeon test it out on the nerves in their legs to see if it would be useful to them. It can be rather pricey seeing as it is not yet covered by most insurance companies, but it's an amazing product that is worth looking into! :)

  • @PeaceLoveChristofer Do you know if the device approved medically or not ?

  • This is awesome. This woman obviously had some return after her injury though which is common. An SCI must heal before it's full extent is known. Hers is obviously incomplete. She had great return and worked hard. Bravo for her!!! I do bristle when I hear the hard work will get you out of a wheelchair kind of stories. Someone with a T12 complete injury won't walk like her from hard work. Telling half the story on natnl tv simply infered laziness on the part of those "still" in wheelchairs.

  • @jb173 no kidding i only have a 5% chance of walking again and decreases every year.

  • do you need complete lower back control? what about incontinence?

  • OMFG I am so happy for this device and for her!

  • Now, you know Obama aint ganna help people getting that.

  • 5 000? kind of expensive!

  • @carmelina182 Kind of expensive? I can say with confidence that there are countless people out there willing to pay significantly more for half as much mobility as this device promises.

  • This video makes me so happy. I am going for our British version of this device shortly. I do hope I will be able to give up my braces, wheelchair, crutches-and run again! Our British device seems to have many more wires than yours, so I hope it works as well.

  • So Amazing! So Exciting that this may replace surgeries and/or orthotics that don't do half of what this one device does! So happy for this young woman, whom I have actually met!

  • does this only work for legs or other stuff you

  • 5 stars

  • thats amazing Tina...you gave me the gumption to go & try it on...i hope it works 4 me as well as it does 4 you!..congratulations!

  • Snowboarding is way too dangerous. Almost everybody I know that snowboards has broken a bone from it.

    NOT WORTH IT!

  • Everyone chooses to live their life in different ways. Some are just more adventurous than others.

  • nerdology...science as my religion...

  • breath taking, but "MANY AMERICANS that can't walk." well no, it's world-wide.

  • america is all about america...lol
