Walkers help to give the user extra support when walking or standing. They offer far more stability than a standard walking stick. By providing additional points of contact (four) the walking aid provides both additional support and a wider range of stable centre of gravity positioning. By directing load through the arms and the walking aid, lower impact and static forces are transmitted through the affected limbs. A Walker is used by disabled or elderly people who need additional support to maintain balance or stability while walking. The front two legs of the walker may or may not have wheels attached. It is extremely beneficial to those with little arm strength and a good tool for those recovering from leg or back injuries.
Vissco Walker are actually two very different types of product with different uses. Walking sticks, on the other hand, are mainly items of fashion. They are often not designed to take any weight at all, as they are little more than accessories. They can be made from a wide variety of materials, and their handles can get very elaborate- and uncomfortable. Trying to put weight on a knob handle could result in severe discomfort or pain in hand and wrist. Be careful when using a walking stick, and be aware that they truly are accessories rather than walking canes.
