What type of patients can I use the Tib Trainer® on?
You can use the Tib Trainer® on a wide variety of diagnoses both neurological and orthopaedic. You can use it on patients with a weak Anterior Tibialis muscle; impaired limb proprioception; decreased stride lengths or other gait deviations. You can use it on patients with a shuffling gait pattern and those who tend to scuff their foot. Patients/clients who have decreased dorsiflexion and/or hip and knee flexion in swing can also benefit from using the Tib Trainer®.
