Inclusion Criteria: * Age 18-65 (women or men) * Incomplete SCI graded as AIS A,B,C \& D * Level of lesion: T10 and above, based on AIS level determination by the PI, with preservation of conus function * The intact distance between the cone and the lesion must be at least 60mm * Focal spinal cord disorder caused by either trauma or epidural, subdural or intramedullary bleeding * Minimum 12 months post-injury * Completed in-patient rehabilitation program * Able to stand with walker or 2 crutches * Stable medical and physical condition as considered by Investigators * Adequate care-giver support and access to appropriate medical care in patient's home community * Agree to comply in good faith with all conditions of the study and to attend all required study training and visits * Must participate in two training sessions before enrolment * Must provide and sign Informed Consent prior to any study related procedures Exclusion Criteria: * Limitation of walking function based on accompanying (CNS) disorders (systemic malignant disorders, cardiovascular disorders restricting physical training, peripheral nerve disorders) * History of significant autonomic dysreflexia * Cognitive/brain damage * Epilepsy * Patient who has spinal canal stenosis * Patient who uses an intrathecal Baclofen pump. * Patient who has any active implanted cardiac device such as pacemaker or defibrillator. * Patient who has any indication that would require diathermy. * Patient who has any indication that would require MRI. * Patient that have an increased risk for defibrillation * Severe joint contractures disabling or restricting lower limb movements. * Haematological disorders with increased risk for surgical interventions (increased risk of haemorrhagic events). * Participation in another locomotor training study. * Congenital or acquired lower limb abnormalities (affection of joints and bone). * Women who are pregnant (pregnancy test obligatory for woman of childbearing potential) or breast feeding or not willing to take contraception. * Known or suspected non-compliance, drug or alcohol abuse. * Spinal cord lesion due to either a neurodegenerative disease or a tumour. * Patient has other anatomic or co-morbid conditions that, in the investigator's opinion, could limit the patient's ability to participate in the study or to comply with follow-up requirements, or impact the scientific soundness of the study results. * Patient is unlikely to survive the protocol follow-up period of 12 months.
