DEVICE

Tibion Bionic Leg

The Tibion Bionic Leg is used as an adjunct in post-stroke and post-operative rehabilitative physical therapy. The leg is a lightweight, wearable, portable, battery-powered, motorized leg orthosis that provides active assistance and resistance to lower limb movement during walking, stair ascent and descent, and transfers from sitting to standing (and standing to sitting).
