"Thank you for the physical therapist clinic contacts.  Each one that I called was very helpful, and spoke very highly of the GHSII, especially its usefulness, the integrity of it, and customer service.  In light of that our board has approved the purchase of a GHSII for us. We can get our GHSII!"

I can see that the GHS would work for some clients, but I don't see how it could help my clients- I don't think I have enough clients who could use the GHS. Can you explain? 
The GHS has been used successfully in SNF, in- & out-patient clinics, group homes, by home users, in acute & sub-acute care units, in poly-trauma units, by VA hospitals, in hospitals, and in sports training centers. The GHS is very versatile, and can easily adapt to the myriad of needs your clients may present.

"Our adult and pediatric Second Step Gait Harness System IIs are working wonderfully. We love them.

 

"We have incorporated them with the Interactive Metronome for gait training amputees. We are even able to use one for the adults who are tall kneeling for gait training."

Learning to use the GHS is a very simple process which will take your staff only minutes to learn. The GHS is fully assembled and ready for immediate use when it arrives. Contact us with questions on how to optimize your use of the GHS at any time.

 

"I have a group of patients at a facility who were all told they would never walk again--after using the Gait Harness System, only two now use a wheelchair as their primary locomotion.

 

 "I use the GHS daily with almost all my patients. The unique harness is extremely comfortable.

 

"The GHS has allowed our program to be very challenging, efficient, and safe at the same time. Many of the higher level activities would require two or three staff members if it were not for the GHS. I cannot say enough about the ease of use and its ability to reduce the fear of falling."
