Description
The U-Step walking stabiliser was designed to increase independence and eliminate falling among those with neurological conditions. The leading-edge features of the U-Step make it superior by providing more stability, manoeuvrability, and control. The U-Step has been tested and proven to be beneficial for patients with various neurological conditions, including Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, balance disorders, brain injuries, ALS, PSP/MSA, Ataxia, and Stroke.
- Reversed braking system – innovative braking system is easy to use and puts you in complete control. The U-Step will not roll until you lightly squeeze either hand brake. Once you release the hand brake, the unit will stop immediately. This feature is particularly helpful when standing up from a chair because the unit will not roll away from you.
- Small turning circle for tight spaces – main unit wheels are positioned towards the middle of the base. This allows you to turn in tight indoor areas such as washrooms, kitchens, and hallways.
- Rolling resistance control – unlike other rolling walkers, you can adjust the rolling speed of the new U-Step. The rolling resistance can be controlled via a screw adjustment lever to the desired amount.
- Spring-loaded front wheels – patented spring-loaded front caster system glides easily over uneven surfaces, such as indoor moulding strips and cracks in the sidewalk. This avoids sudden jolts as well as the need to lift the walker over small obstacles.
- Folds for easy transporting – simply lift the release lever by the seat, pull up on the seat support to fold.
- Comfortable padded seat
