Lite Run in the News
What Our Patients Say
"I was really surprised at how I was able to walk so much in it. It was so much more than I was able to do just in a regular therapy session. I think I walked easily three times more. That was really amazing to me, and it really made me feel like there was a lot of hope that I would be able to recover."
GUILLAIN-BARRE PATIENT
"You guys are doing one amazing thing! Again from the bottom of my heart, thanks. It made me feel like I was actually able to walk."
PATIENT WITH PARAPLEGIA
"He hasn’t walked this far in 10 years."
WIFE OF STROKE PATIENT
"I felt very safe in walking which is not usual for me. I was encouraged enough to try to run for the first time in 5 years. And I just found it remarkable. I felt safe. I felt empowered. I was very proud of how very far I went."
PATIENT WITH PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHY
"Wow my balance is there. It’s like kind of correcting. I feel like I’m lighter. [Is it natural?] It’s better than natural."

What The Experts Say
"The most beneficial part of having the Lite Run system is to have patients walking sooner. We have patients that can be so complicated that they are bedridden for a long time. If we’re able to get them on their feet sooner and they’re comfortable, then hands down I want that product."
CHARLOTTE BRENTESONDPT
"The Lite Run Gait Trainer System can provide additional benefits compared to harness-based gait training systems that are commonly in use today. Fewer physical therapists and aides would be needed making the rehabilitation process more efficient and patients would be able to move around as opposed to be stationary on a treadmill. The system may also reduce the risk of injury and falls for both patients and therapists."
LARS ODDSSON, PRESIDENT, CO-FOUNDER, RXFUNCTION INC.Adjunct Professor, Program in Rehabilitation Science, Medical School, University of Minnesota
"The patient went a much greater distance. It was very effective training. We could focus a lot better on different things, he was safe; he could do turns and all of these different challenging things that we wouldn’t be able to do as easily without this unweighting."
BRIAN ELLINGBOEDPT
"It was exciting to use the lite run with a patient who has been working hard to regain functional mobility after a severe stroke. His joy and hope was contagious as his confidence increased during his trial use."
