Choosing the Right Product

Perhaps you've injured your foot or leg. Or maybe you're less sure-footed than you once were. Whatever the reason, you've found you need the help of a walking (gait) aid. How do you select and properly use one?

Which Walking Aid Do You Need to Use?

Are you active and just left the softball field with a twisted ankle? Or are you a weekend warrior and left the emergency room after a sprained knee? Maybe you are a little older and suffered a fall down the stairs injuring your hip and wrist. Do you use a Rolling Walker, Cane, Manual Wheelchair or Crutches?

Basic Guide For Canes

A cane is a stick used to give you support and balance when walking. Most Canes are made of metal, wood, or plastic. You may need to use a Cane if you are weak on one side of your body. If you have balance problems you may also need to use a Cane. The cane may decrease your pain when walking because it takes weight off your leg and joints. Using a Cane may help you to feel less tired.

Basic Guide For Crutches

Crutches help to take weight off one leg (completely or partially). The two most common types of Crutches are: Axillary Crutches and Forearm Crutches

Basic Guide For Rolling Walkers

The most common types of Rolling Walkers are: Standard, 2 Wheeled, and 4 Wheeled Walkers
