Abstract
The therapeutic system of the preferred embodiments includes a foot platform having a lateral segment and a medial segment. The foot platform is coupled to the foot of the patient and supports the body force of the patient. The foot platform functions to move the foot from an equilibrium position to an activated position. The transition of the foot between equilibrium position and activated position, preferably occurs substantially instantaneously once the foot platform supports greater than substantially half of the body force.
