Walk faster, farther, with more freedom.
Take the stairs. Walk on the beach. Stroll through the park. Dance. It’s now possible with the NESS L300 Foot Drop System.
The NESS L300 is an advanced functional electrical stimulation (FES) system that sends low-level electrical impulses to the common peroneal nerve in your leg, stimulating muscles to lift your foot. The NESS L300 automatically senses, while you are walking, your foot position, terrain asit changes, and your walking speed. Therefore, the NESS L300 may assist your gait (a manner of walking) following an upper motor neuron injury or disease.
Three wireless components
The NESS L300 is unlike a rigid, uncomfortable ankle-foot orthosis (AFO). Once fitted, you can wear the NESS L300 under most clothing, and with most shoes.
The system consists of three small components that communicate with each other wirelessly. When you lift your heel, the Intelli-Sense Gait Sensor™ sends wireless signals to the leg cuff which stimulates the nerves to contract the muscles that lift your foot while walking.
