HUMAN GAIT INSTITUTE

The purpose of HGI is set forth in its Mission Statement: The mission of the Human Gait Institute is to assist people in reaping the benefits of innovative lower extremity orthotic technologies... Because of their own experiences and their observations of the experiences of other brace wearers, HGI members have learned that education and support for brace wearers is minimal at best. This is not because there are not caring, aware orthotists in the profession, but primarily because of the requirements of the medical insurance system and, in some practices, the requirement to meet product quotas to ensure that the practice is profitable. We hope that what we provide on this web site can, in our limited way, help to fill that void and provide support for those who need bracing to improve and/or maintain their quality of life.
