What is gait training?

Gait training is a type of physical therapy focused on improving how you walk. It helps restore normal movement patterns, strength, and coordination after injury, illness, or surgery.

It’s commonly used for patients recovering from strokes, neurological conditions, orthopedic surgeries, balance disorders, and injuries that affect walking.

Treatment may include walking exercises, balance drills, strength training, assistive device training (like canes or walkers), and techniques to improve posture and coordination.

The length of treatment depends on your condition and goals. Some patients improve in a few weeks, while others may need longer-term therapy.
