In the researchers' words
Lumbosacral spinal stimulation activates the neural network involved in the control of locomotion at the spinal level. However, its effects are limited to the production of robust rhythmic patterns of alternating movement, being currently in the absence of therapeutic value. On the other hand, the use of robotic technology for gait rehabilitation has experienced significant growth during the last years and its clinical efficacy is similar to others traditional interventions.
