Medical Device helping people w/ severe disabilities walk
Product

Mercury helps improve mobility and facilitate rehabilitation to help people with severe disabilities walk independently. People with severe mobility impairments due to medical conditions such as stroke, multiple sclerosis, or Lou Gehrig’s Disease have some strength and control in their legs, but not enough to walk independently. Consequently, they use wheelchairs for mobility at the cost of independence as well as any hope of maintaining or recovering function.
