Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How does the Platform Walker | 1 Arm Support work?

The Platform Walker | 1 Arm Support is designed for individuals who need mobility assistance but have limited use of one arm or hand. It features a unique platform on one side that allows you to rest your forearm while using your other hand to grip the handle. The walker has two wheels for easy maneuverability and folds for convenient storage and transport.

Q: What makes the Platform Walker different from regular walkers?

Unlike standard walkers that require both hands to grip handles, the Platform Walker | 1 Arm Support features a specialized platform design that accommodates users with one-arm limitations. This makes it ideal for individuals recovering from stroke, arm injuries, or those with conditions affecting arm strength or mobility on one side.

Q: Is the Platform Walker | 1 Arm Support suitable for indoor and outdoor use?

Yes, this walker is designed for versatility. The two-wheel design provides smooth movement on various surfaces, making it suitable for both indoor navigation and outdoor activities. The sturdy construction ensures stability whether you're moving through doorways at home or walking on sidewalks.

Q: Who should consider using a Platform Walker with arm support?

This walker is ideal for individuals with one-arm weakness, stroke survivors, people with arm injuries, arthritis affecting one side, or anyone who needs mobility assistance but cannot effectively use both hands to operate a standard walker. It's also beneficial for those transitioning from wheelchair to walking independence.

Q: How do I properly adjust and use the Platform Walker?

Proper setup involves adjusting the height to ensure your arm rests comfortably on the platform while maintaining good posture. Always ensure the walker is fully opened and locked before use. Place your affected arm on the platform and use your stronger hand to grip the opposite handle while walking at a comfortable pace.

Why we know this works!

Using a platform walker is a great solution for someone who needs a mobility device but is not able to grip the handle of a standard walker due to arm weight bearing restrictions or weakness. This platform walker has one padded forearm rest with adjustable straps to comfortably secure the arm to the forearm rest. The platform can be used on the right or left side and can be adjusted to the perfect height for the user. The platform walker can fold for easy storage or transport for use outside of the home. Using a platform walker allows for better balance while walking and can prevent the risk of falls.
