CANES AND WALKERS

Canes and walkers provide a person with increased stability and support and are mostly used to prevent injuries due to fall. Using a cane or a walker also relieves the pressure on painful joints such as the knees or hips due to arthritis or other degenerative joint diseases.

SCOOTERS AND WHEELCHAIRS

Scooters and wheelchairs can be useful for people who are unable to walk, have limited upper body strength and are unable to use a walker.

Manual wheelchairs are much better than scooters for people who have strenght in their upper bodies because mobility scooters force your upper body into a harmful sedentary state. Unlike a manual wheelchair, the mobility scooter will eliminate considerable use of the shoulders, arms and even hands.
