Discover how Wheeleo® has become an essential tool in the toolkit of healthcare professionals. Improve your patients’ rehabilitation while promoting their comfort, autonomy and safety.
Explore our page dedicated to healthcare professionals to learn how to integrate Wheeleo® into your practice and offer your patients an optimized rehabilitation experience.
Mobility aids are just as much a part of the tools available for optimizing your patients’ rehabilitation as orthoses or robots. The effects observed on gait parameters, combined with its low cost, make it an accessible, effective rehabilitation tool that has its place in the therapist’s toolkit. Ideally, this walking aid will be made available to your patients until they are able to use another walking aid, more suited to their progress.
Unfortunately, many of your patients will leave the rehabilitation center with more or less serious after-effects. Wheeleo® will be available again if needed to facilitate your patients’ mobility.
Healthcare professionals play an important advisory role for people with reduced mobility or disabilities. It’s the healthcare professional who will enable a patient to make the right choice according to his or her capabilities, environment and objectives.
All healthcare professionals should know about Wheeleo®, have hands-on experience with it, and understand its indications just as they do with canes, walkers, or rollators.
Thanks to our Danish partner Handigood, the Wheeleo® has proved its worth at Vejlefjord Rehabilitation in Denmark.

Results: The use of a rolling cane improved walking speed over 10 meters at comfortable (+22%, p < 0.001) and maximum (+30%, p < 0.001) speeds, as well as speed (+50%, p < 0.001) and distance (+49%, p < 0.001) in a 6-minute test. Physiological cost index, perceived exertion and balance interventions remained stable. Participant satisfaction increased.
Conclusion: Wheeleo®, a rolling cane, increases walking speed in adults with hemiparesis, with no additional risk of falls.

Results: Speed improved by 35% at comfortable speed and 38% at fast speed. According to our results, these differences are linked to (1) a decrease in the duration of the stance phase of the affected leg, (2) a decrease in the duration of the double stance and (3) an increase in cadence.
