Can be activated, adjusted , and monitored with an app for smartphone or tablet Help to improve the walking pattern and stride length A stable rollator to reduce the fear of slipping or falling The Rollz Motion Rhythm Rollator has been designed especially for people who have Parkinson’s disease and other forms of Ataxia. This revolutionary rollator has a very clever system to help improve movement and make walking easier. With Ataxia, people will quite often have walking gait disturbance, this is where the normal movement of walking is hampered as the signals are not going from the brain to the muscles correctly. So, they can feel like their feet are glued to the ground and freeze, increasing the chance of a dangerous fall. The Rollz Motion Rhythm Rollator uses three cues to help the brain to restart the process of walking: - A laser line on the ground - A vibration in the handlebars - Rhythmic tones Some people will respond to visual stimulus so a laser line will help, some will need to feel something in order to carry on walking and a vibration will work, and some people will respond better to sounds such as rhythmic tones. These can be set up with the help of an occupational therapist or physiotherapist and they have an app for tablet or smartphone where they can be activated, adjusted, and monitored.
