Walking Frame – Rehaid

A Walking Frame (also known as a walker) is a tool for disabled people who need additional stability and support while walking.

Description

General Details

It provides better support than using only a walking stick. The basic design of the Walking Frame has been unchanged for the last 50 years.

How to use a walking frame?

Adjust the height of the walker to be about waist-high. The height should be comfortable for the patient. It should allow for a slight bend of the elbow which is necessary to maintain blood circulation when using the walking frame. The ideal height (upto the handgrip) is the height of the patient upto the wrist when standing with arms on the side and elbows slightly bent.
Stand between the 2 sides of the walking frame.
Pick up the walker and place it a short distance ahead.
Walk to it.
Repeat steps 3 and 4.

Designed as per biomechanical principles for proper weight distribution.
Wide frame for better stability
Made of anodised aluminium so light-weight and rust-proof. Cheap steel walkers are heavy and prone to rust.
Telescopic height adjustment based on height of patient. Height of adult walkers can be adjusted from 30 inches to 36 inches in 1 inch increments. Height of pediatric walkers can be adjusted from 22 inches to 26 inches in 1 inch increments.
Can be folded for compact storage
Soft cushion hand-grips for comfortable use for long time.
Rubber Tips to minimize chance of slipping.
Supports a maximum load of 100 kg.
