vs. standard care pathway (CAD)

The gap between what evidence recommends and what your team can deliver.

High-intensity, repetitive gait training is the gold standard for stroke rehabilitation. But for physiotherapists and occupational therapists in busy community hospital stroke units, real-world constraints — staffing pressures, patient fatigue, time per session — make it genuinely hard to deliver the volume of walking therapy that produces results.

The consequence? Longer inpatient stays. Higher per-bed costs. Patients discharged to institutional care instead of home.

Kickstart™ was built for exactly this environment.

A tool that works the way your unit works.

No power. No complexity.

Kickstart™ is a fully passive device. No charging, no calibration, no IT involvement. Clinicians learn the basics in under an hour.
