Immediate changes in gait asymmetry following split-belt gait training

Project overview
Children with unilateral cerebral palsy often walk with asymmetry between their legs, which can affect efficiency and stability.
This project examined how split-belt treadmill training, where each leg walks at a different speed, can immediately alter walking symmetry. By measuring changes in gait patterns, the study explored how the nervous system adapts to altered walking conditions.
The results provide insight into short-term motor adaptation and the potential of treadmill-based training to influence gait symmetry.
