If you are really lucky your doctor will attend and get some knowledge to apply to your walking recovery. Unless your doctor already is so knowledgeable that a 100% recovery walking protocol already exists for you.
UCLPartners Centre for Neurorehabilitation Symposium: The Neurorehabilitation of Walking
24 February 2022, 9:00 am–5:00 pm
Why do we as humans walk? What are the benefits of being on two feet and therefore what is the impact of walking impairment on people with neurological conditions? We have brought together experts in the field to explore these questions and advances in technologies to assess and manage walking impairment.
