Body weight-supported treadmill training after stroke

You'll have to see for yourself which type of bodyweight lowering is used.

Using body weight gait training on me didn't work. I needed the full body weight to counteract the spasticity.  Lokomat training did work since it forced the spasticity into submission. My doctor however thought Lokomats were not useful. He didn't discuss it with me. 

It's time to start screaming at your 'stroke medical professionals'. With no protocols you are essentially dealing with amateurs.
My god, all this earlier research and NO protocol came out of it.
