What Walking Aids For The Elderly Are Available?

If you have reduced mobility due to age or a health condition, you could improve your independence by choosing the right walking aids for the elderly or infirm. There’s a whole range of equipment available to make life easier.

Walking aids for the elderly begin with walking sticks and canes. These offer better stability if you suffer joint pain in your lower limbs, back pain, balance problems or tiredness when walking. If a walking stick isn’t giving you the level of support you need, you could consider a zimmer. These lightweight walking frames have four legs, offering support and balance while requiring minimal effort to manoeuvre them. A tri-walker is a three-wheeled folding walker that’s light enough to be portable and offers support indoors or in public areas - anywhere where space can be tight. A rollator is larger, with four wheels, but more stable if you tend to walk on uneven ground or like to walk longer distances.

Some tri-walkers and rollators also feature seats so you can rest periodically if needed. Why not ask a friendly mobility store which walking aids for elderly are most suitable for your needs?
