Clinical Evidence & research
Explore the science behind WALX.
This section is dedicated to the research, clinical insights, and therapeutic applications that underpin WALX products and programmes. Whether you’re a physiotherapist, rehab specialist, commissioner, or simply someone who values evidence-based approaches to movement and recovery, this is where you’ll find the “why” behind what we do.
WALX isn’t just about walking—it’s about movement re-education, posture alignment, neurological recovery, and whole-body engagement. Our approach is rooted in clinical reasoning and designed in collaboration with healthcare professionals across multiple settings.
