Wingo wearables - all you need to know
Safe walking
Wingo uses a unique, patented gait machine to analyze your gait in real time and stimulate the right muscles at exactly the right moment. This supports your natural movement patterns and improves your gait stability.
Pain reduction
The regenerative power of the sense of touch provides relief from peripheral nerve pain. Greater mobility promotes regeneration and alleviates neuropathic symptoms.
Regeneration of blood vessels & nerves
The vibrations promote blood circulation and blood flow in the legs. This supports the regeneration of damaged blood vessels and peripheral nerves—an important aspect for diabetics.
Compression therapy of Wingo
The combination of compression and vibration therapy creates the first portable lymph drainage system. A gentle form of decongestive therapy.
Walking becomes natural again
Gentle, precise vibrations stimulate the muscles that are active when walking. This strengthens weakened nerve functions. Gradually, Wingo means that you no longer have to think about every step you take — your sense of balance is strengthened.

WINGO manages to make walking easier in everyday life and, ideally, to increase mobility without more effort. This strengthens health literacy, but also has other very positive effects on the regulation of this type of disease.
By increasing the metabolic activity rate, the sugar level is reduced and thus the progression of diabetes is stopped or at least greatly attenuated. At the same time, the regular stimulations of the gait machine WINGO on the muscle parts set important therapeutic effects in the repair and regeneration of nerves and blood vessels.
This was impressively demonstrated in the work of David Julius and Ardem Patapoutian. WINGO uses mechanisms based on these discoveries (Piezo-1, and Piezo-2 receptors) for temperature, mechanical stimuli and touch, for which Ardem Patapoutian and David Julius received the 2021 Nobel Prize in Medicine.
