Abstract: The embodiments and methods described herein relate to an improved functional electrical stimulation (FES) orthosis. An apparatus can include a frame assembly, an electrode assembly, and an electric stimulator. The frame assembly is removably coupleable to a portion of a limb. The electrode assembly is configured to be in electrical communication with a portion of a neuromuscular system of the limb, and includes first and second sets of electrodes. The electric stimulator is in electrical communication with the electrode assembly. The electric stimulator is configured to send a first signal substantially during a first time period and via a first channel to the first set of electrodes for stimulation of a neuromuscular system of the limb, and is configured to send a second signal, during at least one of the first time period or a subsequent second time period, via a second channel to the second set of electrodes for stimulation of the neuromuscular system of the limb.
