How to choose walking support items

Choose the one that suits your lifestyle

There are many different types of mobility aids available, including walkers, strollers, and shopping carts.
It is important to choose a product that suits the user's physical condition and the situation in which you want to use it.

Use the chart and explanations below to help you find the walking aid that's right for you.

Key points for choosing a silver cart

✓ Handle height : A good guideline is your height divided by 2 plus 5-10cm. The ideal height is one where your elbows are bent at about 45 degrees (about belly button height).

✓ Purpose <br>Choose one based on its purpose, such as whether it will be used primarily for shopping, primarily for walking assistance, or how often you go out.

✓ Balance of storage capacity and stability :
Decide what you prioritize depending on the situation, such as around the house, long distances, or shopping.

✓ Weight of the main unit <br>A lightweight model is convenient if you have to carry it up and down stairs or into a car.

*A silver cart is an auxiliary device that allows people who are able to walk independently to walk stably.
It's easier to imagine if you think of it as an extension of a walking stick.

We recommend introducing walking support items if you have reasons such as "I feel a bit uneasy and want to start using a walker" or "I find a walking stick unstable."
