    Abstract: Systems and methods for providing biofeedback information to a subject for gait assistive therapy are provided. The system comprises an insole pressure sensor and means for communicating the pressure exerted by the subject on the insole pressure sensor to the subject. The insole pressure sensor comprises conductive elements in communication with a transmitter, which transmits a pressure signal to a receiver worn by the subject. The method comprises monitoring pressure applied by the subject to the insole pressure sensor, monitoring a pressure threshold of the insole pressure sensor, and transmitting an output signal when the pressure exceeds a pre-determined pressure threshold. The insole pressure sensor in various aspects has a ball portion and heel portion corresponding to the respective ball and heel of a subject's foot.
