Thank you for giving freedom back to my husband

Rating:

What was your concern with this review?

My husband was diagnosed with Parkinson's in 2005 and as the symptoms progressed, his mobility and confidence to get out and walk diminished. He had been using ski-pole type sticks and although successful a few years ago, they no longer give enough support and stability. He also needs to sit down more frequently. There aren't many seats on the walks we enjoy in the countryside, setting off a cycle of panic and worsening freezing gait (Parkinsons).
After much research, worrying about the suitability and expense we got the Veloped Tour, being the most suitable for the type of off-road walks we enjoy.
His strength isn't what it used to be so we had concerns he would not have the strength to push the Veloped, but it has been fine. We are enjoying many walks again. Mike's confidence, mood and muscle tone have all improved considerably.
So many thanks for giving him (and therefore both of us) the keys to freedom!!

  • NOT like an old device…

    I'm extremely happy with the Sport Rollator. I use it for roller skating near our canal, and it works great. I haven't roller skated in 10 years and have the rollator as a safety feature for support.
    And the device doesn't look like a piece of equip…

  • The Veloped – an ingenious device – we love it!…

    After our 86-year-old mother's walking radius decreased due to unsteady gait, and she could only move around outside the home with an escort, she considered – albeit very ambivalently – a mobility aid. A "regular" walker was out of the question for h…

  • It's got me, my dogs &my legs out again…

    Love it, kerbs no problem, hills no problem. I have had trouble with a kissing gate!! Thought I might be stuck in it, collapsed it and took it through like an upside down tripod. Have fixed 2 cable ties 4 cane holder.…

  • Getting back into the garden…

    The Veloped Trek has allowed me to get back into the garden, see the plants, even prune an overgrown bush, hang out washing (exciting) and just experience my large backyard again.

    MS limits me in many ways, so the ability to safely walk on grass …

  • I am very happy with the Veloped Tour…

    I now enjoy walking again. I walk more safely and don't put as much strain on my joints as with the walking poles. I also cope better with the uneven paths. It's also ideal for shopping.…

  • For my 95 Year Old Mother…

    I purchased the Veloped Trek 14er for my mother, who is 95, and recently moved to our rural home where there are no paved walkways. The Veloped had enabled her to manoeuvre over loose gravel and grass ground independently. I like everything about it;…
