Overview for Healthcare Professionals
Introduction to FES
FES is small pulses of electrical stimulation to the nerves that supply paralysed muscles.
The stimulation is controlled in such a way that the movement produced provides useful function.
The technique is used as an aid to assist walking especially with dropped foot but can be used to help movement in upper limb too.

Testimonials
It was life changing after my stroke. I struggled with a foot drop. I used the FES for 7 months then my foot drop had improved so much I stopped using it. It helped to train the muscles, kept me moving without stumbling or tripping…
The FES is essential to me leading a relative independent life in my home. I could not get by without it.
The FES team and the pace device have given great confidence to continue working and be independent. I run my own business and have staff. Without FES, I know that I couldn’t manage what I do every day. I am very grateful for this service and how it enables me to have a better life, able to walk better instead of being lame and sad!
