EXTENDED LOWERS

By relieving the weight of the legs while lying on a physiotherapy table or directly in the patient's bed, HERON facilitates the mobilization of the patient or simplifies the realization lower limb movement exercises. This mode of use is particularly suitable for the acute and early phase.

TREADMILL WALK

Thanks to an adjustable width electrically controlled by the remote control, HERON adapts to most treadmills.
It allows good gait training with total safety against the patient falling.
This makes it easier to achieve better gait training efficiency and intensity.

CRAWLING

The HERON harness also keeps the patient in the 4-legged position for both children and adults.
This specific training generates better coordination of movements and represents one of the great challenges in the first stages of neurorehabilitation exercises.

It is a device that we use a lot at the level of the center and which finds its place in rehabilitation, with indications for which we usually have little means.
