Walking Aids

PRO-AIR Medical Supply & Equipment

What is a walking aid?
Walking aids help you if you have trouble getting around. For example, walkers and rollators can help you if you have trouble with balance and stability. You don’t have to let poor balance stop you from getting where you want to go. There are a variety of options so you are sure to find something that caters to your needs.  

What are the key benefits of walking aids? Safety!

Do walking aids have other benefits?
Walking prevent blood glucose from building up in your bloodstream. Exercise is also good for your cardiovascular system. Movement helps you control weight.

Not to mention walking is relaxing!
However, if you are now getting to the stage in life where your balance isn’t what it used to be, falling is much worse than gaining simple exercise benefits. 

Is there a way to get exercise safely?
Walkers offer you support and, because they are made of aluminum, they are easy to lift. Walkers redistribute some of your body mass’ pressure to your arms instead of having it all fall on your back, knees, and hips. This reduces the pressure on your joints and muscles, which is especially important if you have arthritis or back problems. 

It also helps with posture. Mom always told you not to slouch, so this may finally help you to follow her advice!
