Staying active is a key part of aging. Regular physical activity, as well as frequent social activities, can help avoid the (mental) health problems associated with aging. The term “active” includes taking part in social activities and becoming more active by doing so, while enjoying protection, safety and care.
Fear of falling
As you age, many of the biological processes that stimulate muscle (re)generation become less efficient. Research shows that your maximum heart rate and oxygen levels decrease, affecting your ability to exercise and build muscle strength. Joints become stiffer and muscles less elastic, making it harder to maintain regular movement.
A unique solution
Mobility aids or walking devices are the most effective solutions for helping people maintain their stability while walking or performing other daily activities. They improve safety, independence and mobility, which translates into a better quality of life.
There are many different aids for the elderly on the market. The most common are canes, followed by walkers and crutches. They are available in a variety of sizes and options such as wheels or multiple feet, allowing you to choose something that promotes your stability.
As an active senior, you need to look for a mobility device that gives you the stability you need, and is compact and comfortable enough to take anywhere. Choosing a tool that guarantees stability often means compromising on flexibility and mobility. General-purpose walking aids are notorious for making you look frail or even disabled.
