Abstract: Movement timing stimulator systems and methods that aid in the relief of the symptoms of neurological movement disorders are provided. In one embodiment, a method of improving a patient's gait is provided. The method includes producing a plurality of stimulation prompts at a plurality of stimulation points using multiple stimulation channels. The plurality of stimulation points is located symmetrically on each leg. The method further includes applying the plurality of stimulation prompts in a timed periodic fashion across the plurality of stimulation points and activating a return electrode whenever one of the multiple stimulation channels on an associated leg is active. The plurality of stimulation prompts are not synchronized with the patient's gait. Each of the multiple stimulation channels is associated with a stimulation electrode at one of the plurality of stimulation points.

Abstract: A vibratory exercise device comprises a control unit adapted to determine when to provide vibratory cues, wherein the control unit is adapted to divide the duration of a cue pattern period into a plurality of segments, and to assign vibratory cues to one or more of the plurality of segments. The vibratory exercise device also comprises a vibration actuator coupled to the control unit and adapted to provide vibratory cues in response to control signals received from the control unit at the start of each segment assigned a vibratory cue, and a housing adapted to house the control unit and the vibration actuator, wherein a user is able to feel the vibratory cues when in contact with the housing.

Abstract: Methods and systems of cueing an individual to facilitate restoration of impaired voluntary movement is provided. The method includes receiving one or more input signals based on human body functions from at least one sensor. When the one or more input signals meet a defined criteria, indicating impaired voluntary movement, generating one or more sensory cues, wherein the one or more sensory cues include tactile cues, aural cues, and visual cues. The method further includes selectively transmitting stimulation signals to produce the one or more sensory cues and selectively adjusting the one or more sensory cues when the impaired voluntary movement is not broken.
