How Exactly Do Rolling Walkers Work?

There are actually two types of walkers, those that move with casters or wheels, and those that do not. If you have a really hard time "picking" up the walker and shuffling it as you walk, then the rolling walkers will be the best option for you. These are quite easy to use for just about anyone - even children! The process is simple; the person using the walker will walk in unison with the frame of the walker, this walker will surround their front and sides which provides maximum support. You the user will also hold onto the sides of the roller frame for extra added support.

As mentioned above, usually the walker is placed a few centimeters or inches in front of the person, you would then shuffle or walk towards the frame. Rinse and repeat. However, with the use of wheels you can actually "glide" to your destination as opposed to picking it up and moving it on your own. This specific product is a great option for people that have little use of their arms or have no strength in their arms. Also, these rolling walkers are fantastic for people that are recuperating from back or leg injuries as well.

So as you can see this is actually something YOU could do whether you do or don't have a lot of strength.
