The Wheeleo® in Rehabilitation: a Mobile Support for Fluid Walking

In this video, we show you how the Wheeleo® integrates into the daily practice of physiotherapists and rehabilitation teams. More than a walking aid, it becomes a versatile therapeutic tool, used from the first stages of rehabilitation until the resumption of more autonomous walking.

Constant Support from the First Steps

From the beginning of gait training, when the therapist still needs to strongly support their patient, the Wheeleo® offers stable and continuous support.
The patient feels secure, can compensate for a strength deficit or limit their pain, while maintaining a degree of autonomy in movement.

This permanent security allows the physiotherapist to focus their attention on posture, balance, or gait pattern, without having to manage unstable support as with a classic cane. The patient, in turn, quickly regains confidence and fluidity.

A Mobile and Adaptable Aid

The Wheeleo® stands out for its 360° mobility.
During rehabilitation exercises on a course, it offers a support point that constantly adapts to the patient’s position.
The support moves naturally with the rhythm of movement, without having to lift or reposition the aid, unlike a crutch or a tripod cane.

This mobility provides great freedom of movement and allows for fluid, natural, and continuous steps.
Result: walking becomes more harmonious, less jerky, and coordination improves.

Expanded Exercise Possibilities

The Wheeleo® is used in many clinical situations:

• Neurological rehabilitation (stroke, Parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis, etc.),
• Orthopedic rehabilitation (post-operative, knee or hip prosthesis),
• Geriatrics or situations of balance loss,
• Gait rehabilitation after immobilization or loss of confidence.

It allows for varied exercises: posture work, changes of direction, ascending and descending stairs, lateral movements, etc.
Thanks to its stability and maneuverability, the therapist can offer richer progressions without risk to the patient.

More Fluid Walking than with a Cane

Compared to a simple or tripod cane, the Wheeleo® visibly improves walking fluidity.
The patient no longer has to interrupt their movement to reposition their support.
The continuity of movement makes walking closer to natural movement, which promotes higher quality motor learning.

This difference is particularly noticeable in neurological conditions, where symmetry and gait rhythm play a major role in recovery.

A Rehabilitation Tool… but also for Autonomy

Over the course of sessions, the Wheeleo® becomes the link between rehabilitation and daily life.
Once walking is sufficiently fluid, it accompanies the patient in their autonomous movements, whether at the center, at home, or outdoors.
The same tool thus supports the transition between therapeutic work and real life, without any break in adaptation.

Conclusion: a Partner for the Therapist and the Patient

The Wheeleo® is not just a walking aid: it is a rehabilitation partner.
It offers a perfect balance between stability and freedom of movement, allowing the therapist to guide each patient towards more fluid, natural, and confident walking.
