Ease of mobility is critical in daily life. However, many struggle to walk safely, securely, and comfortably. The LifeGlider™ designed to reduce the fear of falling and the fatigue sometimes associated with struggling to walk.
THE KEY TO STABILITY: SECURING THE CENTER OF GRAVITY
The patented LifeGlider represents an evolution in assistive mobility devices, and is unique in that it secures the user’s centre of gravity. This enables upright posture and encourages proper gait, balance and greater confidence as the fear of falling disappears. Securing the body’s centre also frees the hands, since gripping the device is not necessary. (No need to hold the device – the device holds you.) The arms can swing naturally, contributing to proper gait, or the hands can be used for other tasks.
