Forearm Walkers

Forearm walkers, also known as platform walkers or rollators, are mobility aids designed for individuals who need additional support while walking but prefer to rest their forearms instead of relying solely on their hands.

Key features of forearm walkers include adjustable forearm supports for comfort, ergonomic hand grips, and sturdy frames often with four wheels for smooth movement. They also have hand brakes for safety and easy maneuverability with some models also featuring a seat.

Forearm walkers can be preferrable over traditional walkers in some scenarios as they can assist with reducing strain on the wrists and hands, promoting better posture, and offering increased stability for individuals with limited upper body strength or balance issues.
