Description
The Kidwalk allows children with severe disabilities to express their exploratory spirit, play with other children, and move around independently. The notion of the walking aid is based on a child’s normal motor development. Early walking is also important for the child’s physical development: delayed, or improper development can substantially affect later walking abilities – or even prevent proper creation of the bone structure (particularly the hips).
KidWalk supports and guides a kid as they take their first steps in our amazing world. The Kidwalk not only provides secure pelvic and trunk support, but it also allows for a more natural gait pattern – at eye level with other children. Kidwalk is ideal for usage with any client who fits within the unit’s size constraints and requires a supportive device or ambulation. It is appropriate for youngsters ages 5 to 12, with a maximum weight of 40 kg (90 lbs). Cerebral Palsy, Muscular Dystrophy, Down Syndrome, Spina Bifida, and many more diagnoses are common reasons for using Kidwalk.
