The REX Exoskeleton is a unique clinical tool that is a hands-free robotic mobility device. It provides body weight support, empowering people who have experienced a neurological event that prevents them from using their legs in a successful and functional way. Here at Breaking Boundaries we utilise this science to support and enhance our Physiotherapy and Exercise Physiology sessions. This is an incredibly empowering rehabilitation tool designed to improve early functional mobilisation and weight-bearing exercises, which are critical for preventing complications such as muscle atrophy, joint contractures, and bone density loss. The device enables repetitive, task-specific movement training that is essential for promoting neuroplasticity and functional recovery, whilst creating a safe and successful environment for both participants and therapists. 

Rex is unique amongst other exoskeletons for it’s articulating ankle allowing real gait retraining to occur, and also the ‘Rexercises’ allow the user to do squats, lunges and single leg balance as part of their exercise routine.
