What is gait re-education?

At Physio Matters, our expert team uses evidence-based techniques to restore safe, efficient, and functional walking patterns. We assess posture, balance, stride, and muscle activation, then tailor interventions to each client’s needs—whether that involves hands-on therapy, treadmill training, Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES), or orthotic support.

Our goal is to enhance mobility, reduce fall risk, and promote independence. Gait re-education is suitable for clients with stroke, brain injury, MS or other complex conditions. We work collaboratively to help clients regain confidence in movement and achieve meaningful progress in daily life.

The Physio Matters approach

How does gait re-education work?

Gait re-education is a personalised physiotherapy process designed to improve walking patterns following neurological injury, surgery, or long-term conditions. At Physio Matters, we begin with a comprehensive assessment of posture, balance, stride, joint movement, and muscle activation. This helps us identify the underlying causes of abnormal gait and tailor a treatment plan to each client’s unique needs.

Therapy may include hands-on facilitation, treadmill training, strength and coordination exercises, and advanced technologies such as Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) and the L300 GO device. These interventions help retrain the nervous system, improve muscle control, and restore more natural movement patterns.

We also focus on safety and confidence—reducing fall risk and promoting independence in daily life. Progress is monitored closely, with goals adjusted as clients improve. Whether recovering from stroke, brain injury, MS, or spinal cord injury, our expert team works collaboratively to help clients walk better, feel stronger, and move forward with purpose.
