Long Walking Devices

LONG DISTANCE WALKING DEVICES

Long Distance Walking Devices are assistive tools designed primarily for individuals who experience difficulty walking due to disability or physical challenges. These devices aim to enable users to move independently over longer distances and may come with various features.

Types of Long Distance Walking Devices:

Bionic Assisted Walking Devices: With advancements in technology, bionic-assisted devices are also included among long-distance walking devices. These types of devices detect the user’s muscle movements and provide power assistance to the muscles during walking.

Orthoses Supporting Long Distance Walking: Orthoses used for conditions that limit leg and ankle movements provide balance during walking and support the person over long distances. These types of orthoses are generally used for individuals who have difficulty walking due to neurological diseases (e.g., MS or Parkinson’s disease).

Walkers: Devices designed to provide walking support by offering stability on both sides of the user. Walkers are usually lightweight and portable, helping to improve balance and stability over long distances.

Electric Walking Devices (Electric Wheelchairs and Scooters): These devices are ideal for individuals who are physically weaker or cannot stand for long periods. Thanks to electric motors, users can cover long distances easily with minimal energy expenditure.

Benefits of Long Distance Walking Devices:

Independence: Electric walking devices and supportive orthoses enable patients to walk longer distances and continue daily activities independently.
Reduced Fatigue: They help reduce energy consumption over long distances and decrease fatigue.
Improved Balance and Posture: Devices like walkers and orthoses are designed to provide correct posture and balance.
Increased Mobility: They enhance walking ability and significantly improve movement capacity.

Long distance walking devices are products designed to offer personalized solutions for individuals with mobility restrictions to ensure a better quality of life. When used as part of the treatment process, these devices can contribute to recovery according to the patient’s physical condition and improve their living standards.
