Neuromotor Rehabilitation with HAL® Exoskeleton
HAL is a technologically advanced exoskeleton designed to assist you in physical therapy rehabilitation and help you achieve a higher level of autonomy!
The Exoskeleton for Rehabilitation 4.0
What is HAL?
HAL is an innovative exoskeleton for rehabilitation.
It is a wearable device that promotes mobility through motors placed on the joints of the lower limbs, facilitating the user’s movements.
This is possible because the HAL exoskeleton can establish a dialogue with the patient’s nervous system, promoting neuroplasticity and the recovery of autonomy.
How does it work?
HAL is an active exoskeleton capable of interpreting bioelectrical signals (BES) detected through electrodes applied to the patient’s muscles. In this way, HAL can translate the user’s intent to perform certain movements, which are then facilitated by the exoskeleton, in a completely non-invasive manner.
Conditions Treated
HAL exoskeleton is indicated for the following conditions:
- • Complete and incomplete spinal cord injuries
- • Spinal injuries
- • Stroke
- • Parkinson’s disease
- • Neuromuscular diseases
- • Multiple sclerosis

Case studies of HAL exoskeleton usage
The HAL® exoskeleton is integrated into an intensive rehabilitation program, where the combination of various rehabilitation approaches helps achieve the goals defined during the preliminary phase. Watch these videos to see the progress made after a few weeks of therapy.
In this example, you can see the patient at the beginning of her rehabilitation journey and after three months of therapy.
Depending on the degree and type of injury, it is possible to regain the ability to walk without aids, as shown in this video.
Only 17 therapy sessions with HAL were needed to help the patient stand up and become independent.
Even at a more advanced age, it is possible to improve thanks to the use of the HAL exoskeleton.
What sets us apart from other rehabilitation centers in Italy and Europe
Our rehabilitation center is the only one in Italy and Europe that offers an intensive physical therapy program structured into four hours, divided as follows:
1 hour of Neuromotor Rehabilitation with HAL exoskeleton
The patient wears the HAL exoskeleton and is guided by the physiotherapist to start training on a treadmill. HAL detects bioelectrical signals to assist the patient’s intentional movements.
1 hour of “Traditional” Physiotherapy and Neuromotor Rehabilitation
The patient receives personalized treatment from an expert physiotherapist to improve motor functions and acquire adaptive strategies.
1 hour of Neurofit
The patient follows a physical activity program aimed at enhancing aerobic performance, so the patient strengthens their muscles and improves limb flexibility.
1 hour of Neuropilates
The patient engages in an activity that integrates the traditional principles of Pilates with functional exercises adapted to the patient’s level of disability. This practice uses the classic Pilates reformers.
Where Neuromotor Rehabilitation with HAL exoskeleton can be done
You can undergo the neuromotor rehabilitation program at:
Centro San Girolamo a Parma
Stradello San Girolamo, 6/A
43121 Parma (PR)
Accommodation Services
For intensive residential programs, 2WALK offers accommodation and support services for both the patient and their companion throughout the program.
Multidisciplinary and Multilingual Team
A multidisciplinary and multilingual team is ready to welcome you.
Access to Neurological Rehabilitation with the HAL Exoskeleton
We conduct a thorough evaluation of the patient’s clinical condition to determine if they are suitable for the HAL program. We don’t make promises we can’t keep. That’s why we conduct a careful assessment through a preliminary visit, a detailed questionnaire, and three trial sessions; only if the patient is deemed suitable for the treatment can the program be activated.
Facciamo un’attenta valutazione della condizione clinica del paziente per capire se sia idoneo all’attivazione del percorso con HAL. Non facciamo promesse che non possiamo mantenere. Per questo effettuiamo un’attenta valutazione attraverso una visita preliminare, un questionario articolato e tre sedute di prova; solo se il paziente risulta idoneo al trattamento, è possibile procedere con l’attivazione del percorso.
