Who Can Benefit from the Flexyfoot Standard Soft Grip Crutch?
Most traditional crutches are not designed to absorb the shock caused by impact with the ground, which in turn puts stress on the arms and upper body. In contrast, the Standard Soft Grip Crutch is fitted with a special Flexyfoot Ferrule, which prevents this force from travelling up the arm, making it ideal for those with elbow or shoulder pain.
How Does This Crutch Absorb Shock?
The Flexyfoot ferrule at the bottom of this crutch features pleated bellows, which help to reduce impact force on the body. The bellows act like a spring, harnessing the impact force and redirecting it away from the body in order to guarantee lasting comfort and relief from strain.
Can I Use The Closed Cuff Crutch On Rough Terrain?
In addition to providing shock absorption, the flexible bellows offer twice the grip of a standard ferrule. This is because they bend with each step, ensuring the entirety of your cutches tread is always in contact with the ground. As a result, you'll be able to travel over rougher terrain more safely, helping you stay active while you recover your mobility.
How Comfortable Is the Flexyfoot Soft Grip Crutch?
The Flexyfoot Standard Soft Grip Handle Closed Cuff Crutch provides outstanding comfort due to its soft grip and adjustable height, which can be modified using a simple clip system. For added security, the closed cuff design keeps the crutch attached to the arm even if you let go of it with your hand.
