Summary
This study tests a device called Walkasins that provides gentle vibrations to the legs to replace lost foot sensation. Researchers want to see if it helps 30 older adults (ages 65-95) with foot numbness walk more automatically and with less mental effort. Participants will walk while the device is on or off, and their brain activity and walking patterns will be compared.
