The
Walk N Roll™ is a unique mobility aid, a
cross between a cane and a walker. Patented, the Walk N
Roll™ was created to improve autonomy and make rehabilitation
easier in people suffering from an injury or ailment to a foot,
heel or ankle. The Walk N Roll™ allows for
more autonomy than crutches during daily activities. The Walk
N Roll™ is very light, weighing only 3.1 kg or 8.2
pounds.
The aluminum structure of the Walk N Roll™
consists of four legs, of which two have wheels and two have rubber
caps. It also includes a support handle with a manual locking system.
A polyurethane cushion, molded to the shape of the knee, and a small
polyester travel bag complete the apparatus. Light and robust, the
Walk N Roll™ can be quickly assembled. Depending
on which limb is affected, the left or the right, you only have
to insert and adjust the four legs and handle accordingly.
The Walk N Roll™ has several adjustment levels
depending upon the height of the user: between 1.52 and 1.98 meter
(between 5 feet and 6 feet and 6 inches). The four legs must be
adjusted to the same height, so that the dominant leg is fully extended.
And the support handle must be adjusted and locked at the proper
height so as to offer optimal stability. When well adjusted, the
Walk N Roll™ is comfortable, safe and easy
to operate. |
