Canes
If you’re dealing with mild to moderate balance and stability issues, look no further than the classic cane. Canes come with the benefit of being extremely lightweight and portable, making traveling easy - simply stow your cane in your trunk or backseat or next to you on an airplane. You’ll also have plenty of options when it comes to the type of cane that best suits your needs: swan neck, offset handle, classic crook handle, and quad-cane choices are all available, with quad canes offering extra balance and stability with their wider bases. You can even match your cane to your unique aesthetic style with our great selection of colors and patterns!
Crutches
Crutches are often used by those with only a temporary need for a mobility aid, but they can also be useful to those with more permanent disabilities. Depending on your needs, you’ll have two standard crutch options to choose from: axillary crutches, which support you from your underarms, and Lofstrand crutches, which support you from your forearms. Axillary crutches are the most common, and are typically prescribed for leg and ankle injuries, whereas Lofstrand crutches are more often used for long term disabilities that affect balance and coordination.
