Summary
This study tests whether walking in a robotic exoskeleton combined with mild electrical stimulation of the spinal cord can improve muscle and bone health in people with chronic spinal cord injury. Twenty-four participants will be randomly assigned to receive either real or sham stimulation during exoskeleton training. The goal is to see if this combination can reverse or slow down muscle wasting and bone thinning that often occur after injury.
