Gait and Stair Training
At your first appointment, your Physical Therapist will perform a thorough evaluation and develop a personalized rehabilitation treatment program with you that may include Gait and Stair Training.
What is Gait Training?
Gait training is a type of physical therapy that helps people improve their ability to stand and walk. One goal of gait training is preventing falls. Gait training may be recommended after an illness, surgery, or injury or even to help a patient regain independence in walking. Gait training works to strengthen the muscles and joints in the lower body and back. As a result, patients will improve balance, improve posture, develop muscle memory, build endurance, and prepare the legs for repetitive motion. Gait Training also includes stair training, and instruction in the safe use of assistive devices such as canes, crutches, and walkers.
Benefits of Gait Training:
Gait training improves ability to stand, walk and even run by including activities to strengthen muscles and joints, improve posture and balance, build endurance, retrain legs for repetitive motion, and develop muscle memory.

What Our Clients Say
Low Country PT has excellent rapport with their clients and give the very best treatment. They are professional, caring and reinforce that the exercises are done properly. They are always super kind and seem delighted to see you and help you. I would, and have, recommended them to several people. I have been there for knee rehab and problems with dizziness.
Hannah is outstanding, and worth her weight in gold!
