What is the importance of Walker for Seniors?

• Walking is one of the most effective and easiest physical activities. Keep moving makes it easy to stay healthy. However, for some people walking is tough due to injuries, surgeries, limited mobility, or even old age.
• Immobility can lead to stagnancy, and to avoid the consequences of immobility, therapists and medical practitioners often prescribe mobility aids like a walker for seniors. These walking aids can also be upgraded by adding walker accessories to make them more convenient and easier to use.
• Walker is a mobility aid that offers stability and keeps a person balanced as they bear weight. Walker for seniors is also needed after surgery or medical condition, as doctors ensure not to put excessive weight on legs.

How to determine the size you need for a walker?

Proper walker sizing can help prevent poor posture and injury from misuse or falling. Medline walkers all use push-button mechanisms that let the walkers adjust to various heights.

• Step 1. Select a walker that is appropriate to the weight of the patient.
• Step 2. Keeping arms at your side with a natural bend at the elbow, measure from the ground to the center of the wrist.
• Step 3. Adjust all four legs to the same height so that the handgrips match the same height as the wrist.
