Folding Crutches

And with the added benefit of a folding shaft, they can also be stored easily in a bag or in an out of the way area, making them ideal if you don’t need the use them at all times. Folding crutches use push-pin height adjustments to help you find the right height for optimum support and balance when walking, and their ergonomic handles are shaped to fit comfortably in your palm, taking the pressure off your hand and wrist. Crutches differ from canes and traditional walking sticks in that they use cuffs to secure the walking aid to your arm. These cuffs wrap gently around your forearm to provide extra support, and they also let you take your hand off the handle off the crutch without having to put the crutch down.
