NESS L300 Drop Foot System
The NESS L300 Drop Foot System is light-weight, fits just below the knee and is designed to be easy to put on and take off. It has three main parts-a leg cuff, a gait sensor, and a remote control-that use wireless communication to "talk" to each other to help you move where you want to go. This means no troublesome wires with which you must manage. If it is right for you, the NESS L300 could replace your hard plastic brace and could help you:
- Walk more safely
- Walk more easily
- Walk on flat ground
- Walk on uneven surfaces
- Walk up and down stairs

How the NESS L300 Works
The NESS L300 has three main parts that use wireless communication to "talk" to each other.
|
1. Comfortable, lightweight Functional Stimulation Cuff
The leg cuff is a small, light-weight device that fits just below the knee and contains electrodes designed to place stimulation where it helps you most.
2. Innovative Intelli Sense Gait SensorTM
The gait sensor attaches to your shoe and lets the leg cuff know if your heel is on the ground or in the air.
3. Wireless, portable Control Unit
The hand-held remote control lets you adjust the level of stimulation and turn the unit on and off.
