Mobility Aids
Back to Top
At Fenetic Wellbeing, we have a wide range of mobility aids that can make a huge difference to someone’s life. They give you the freedom and the ability to move around knowing you have that additional safety and support. They’re ideal for the elderly and those who struggle with mobility allowing them to regain some of the independence that they may have lost with their disability.
Mobility Aids help people who are suffering from the following:
- Osteoarthritis
- Rheumatoid arthritis
- Joint pain
- Muscle weakness or pain
- Mobility issues
- Obesity
- Balance issues
- Chronic fatigue syndrome
Whether you need an indoor mobility aid or a mobility aid to use outdoors or at the shops, there’s an option for you.
What are mobility aids?
Mobility aids are otherwise known as walking aids and give you support when walking, both indoors and outdoors. They come on wheels so they can be pushed along or without wheels and are lifted along in front of you as you walk.
Mobility aids are particularly useful for anyone who lacks in confidence because of a disability. You may not always need a wheelchair or mobility scooter, you may just need something that helps you get from A to B with little hassle. They’re also transportable so if you’re heading to the shop in your car or for a day out with the family, they can be transported with ease.
What do you need to consider when buying a mobility aid?
There are a number of things you need to consider when it comes to buying a mobility aid:
- Your budget, you need to consider how much you have to spend on mobility aids as the products vary in price.
- What exactly you need, if you struggle to lift a walking frame then you’ll need a rollator which you can push along. It’s worth having a think before making your purchase to ensure you get the product you need.
- You need to consider whether you need additional mobility products when out and about.
- Do you need a seat to rest on when out and about to take a break from moving around?
What mobility aids are available?
We have a wide range of mobility aids available. Some of the most popular options include:
-
Walking Frames - Walking frames have been created to offer stability as you walk and provide that bit of extra safety if you don’t feel confident walking independently.
-
Zimmer Frames - Zimmer frames have a rigid structure and are ideal for those who have the ability to lift the frame and just need extra stability. You can lean against them if you need to take a break
-
Rollators - Essentially zimmer frames on wheels, rollators are lightweight and durable and can be pushed along as you walk. This offers you additional stability and unlike a walking frame, they don’t need to be lifted, you can push them along at your own pace.
