Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

gait training on ground level using BWS

An A1-B-A2 system was applied in which A1 and A2 corresponded to gait training on ground level using Body Weight Support (BWS). Each training phase was performed during 45 minutes, three times a week, for six weeks.

DEVICE

gait training on ground level using BWS associated to FES

An A1-B-A2 system was applied in which B corresponded to the training associated to Functional Electrical Stimulation. Each training phase was performed during 45 minutes, three times a week, for six weeks.
