Product Overview
Days Forearm Crutches - the perfect solution for people seeking greater walking flexibility and comfort over extended periods of time. These lightweight aluminium crutches come in two sizes to suit people of different heights. Forearm crutches promote better posture and potentially reduce strain on the wrist, making them ideal for long-term use. They feature a moulded semi-circle arm cuff that wraps around the upper arm for comfortable support, and anatomically shaped handgrips that distribute pressure evenly. Both the forearm cuff and handgrips are height adjustable for a custom fit.
Made of lightweight aluminium, the crutches have push-button height adjustment for quick and easy customization. The steel handles are strength welded to the frame, making them very sturdy and suitable for people weighing up to 160 kilograms.
When choosing between forearm and underarm crutches, it's important to consider strength, posture, coordination, and comfort. Forearm crutches require more strength and coordination than underarm crutches, but they promote better posture and are more comfortable to use. Underarm crutches are generally easier to master, but they can cause soreness and abrasions over time. Consult your local healthcare professional to determine which crutch is best for you.
The crutches are available in two sizes: Medium for people 1.6 to 1.8 metres tall and Large for people 1.8 to 2 metres tall. Please make a selection when ordering.
