What if one moment could completely change the future of healthcare?
In Part 1 of this 3-part series on Inside the Ascent, Jennifer Conrad sits down with Kira Burns, Founder & CEO of Gravitrex, to uncover the deeply personal story behind a breakthrough in rehabilitation technology.
What started as a family-driven effort to help a loved one walk again quickly revealed a much bigger problem: the current physical therapy system isn’t built for accessibility, affordability, or real-life recovery. In this episode, we go back to the beginning—where it all started.
You’ll hear:
- The life-changing moment that sparked the idea behind Gravitrex
- Why today’s rehab equipment falls short for patients
- The hidden barriers people face when trying to recover mobility
- How personal experience can lead to powerful innovation
This is more than a startup story—it’s the foundation of a mission to rethink how recovery works. 🎧 This is Part 1 of a 3-part series.
