Gait Modifications and Cutaneous Stimulation
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Osteoarthritis, Knee
In brief
The purpose of this study is to quantify differences in joint mechanics between different types of walking in healthy individuals and individuals with knee pathology. The investigators will determine how modifying gait through feedback and/or cutaneous stimulation changes joint loading.
