Bioness Products In Edmonton

Yes. In Step provides clinical trials of both the L300 Go and H200 as part of the assessment and fitting process. Your physiotherapist evaluates your response to the device during supervised sessions before any purchase decision is made, ensuring the product is appropriate for your specific condition and producing the expected functional response.

Yes. In Step supports both new patients starting with Bioness products and existing users who already own an L300 Go or H200 and need clinical support, parameter adjustments, or physiotherapy to complement their device use. You do not need to have purchased the device through In Step to receive ongoing support.

Yes. Both the L300 Go Foot Drop System and the H200 Wireless Hand Rehabilitation System are cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as Class II medical devices. They are used in regulated clinical settings across North America, including at In Step Physical Therapy in Edmonton.

Both devices are indicated for conditions involving upper motor neuron damage including stroke, multiple sclerosis, traumatic brain injury, cerebral palsy, and incomplete spinal cord injury. Peripheral nerve injuries without central nervous system involvement typically do not respond to FES and would be screened out during the initial assessment at In Step.

Yes. A patient recovering from stroke or brain injury who has both foot drop and hand paralysis can use both devices as part of a coordinated neurological rehabilitation program. In Step would assess and fit each device separately, with physiotherapy sessions addressing both upper and lower limb function within the same program.

Yes. The pediatric configuration of the L300 Go is available for children with foot drop caused by neurological conditions such as cerebral palsy. The H200 is also used across age groups. Suitability for pediatric patients is determined during clinical assessment at In Step based on the child’s size, condition, and rehabilitation goals.

Stimulation parameters are adjusted as you progress. As your walking or hand function improves through rehabilitation, your physiotherapist at In Step adjusts the device settings to match your current level of ability, progressively challenging the neuromuscular system rather than keeping stimulation at the same intensity throughout recovery.

No. Functional electrical stimulation devices including the L300 Go and H200 are contraindicated for patients with demand-type cardiac pacemakers or implanted electrical stimulators. This is one of the contraindications screened during the clinical assessment at In Step before any device trial or fitting proceeds.

Purchasing through In Step includes clinical assessment, professional fitting, stimulation programming specific to your presentation, and ongoing physiotherapy support. Purchasing independently means receiving the device without that clinical configuration or supervised rehabilitation, significantly reducing the likelihood of achieving meaningful functional improvement.

The decision is made during your initial assessment at In Step. The L300 Go addresses foot drop and lower limb gait challenges. The H200 addresses hand paralysis and upper limb function. Your physiotherapist assesses which limbs are affected, the nature of your neurological condition, and your functional rehabilitation goals — then recommends the appropriate device or combination of devices for your program.
