Thank you, having watched many videos, yours 😊 actually answered the questions I had about types of poles, strap options the difference in the walking techniques, and benefit/goal of using pole or nordic stride, depending on health issues.
Many thanks Gilly for taking the time to make such an organized and clear video. I recently suffered a stroke and still have balance issues. Pole walking has been very helpful for me.
Hey... I am the founder/developer of, among other things, a rehabilitative movement system based around quadripedal locomotion and the use of a pair of 6 to 8 foot staffs as walking aids, and the variety of grip and grip heights that you can use allow a person to work out every muscle group and keep the shoulders high and the spine in tension! It is a far superior setup to standard walking poles... I am sharing this stuff for free because it changed my life, and may help some of your clients, especially those with kyphosis or collapsed shoulder girdle positions... Yours truly...

Thank you so much! My 82 yr. old Mom says she wants some "walking poles" like she sees people using. She has bad knee osteoarthritis and although she doesn't have pain she says she thinks the poles would give her more confidence to try tiny walks around the neighborhood. This is a wonderful video to at least get me asking some of the right questions... thank you!
Shoulders Yep know all about that too ! Gone from manual to electric due to shoulders worn out long rolls got myself a 4wd X8 for the bush a motor for the back of my manual chair Makes moving around a breeze
I live in Georgia,US.The walking paths are never straight.Always has hills and for that reason I chose a trekking pole and I’m going to try to combine the styles.
Is this wheelchair affordable. Ordinary wheelchair is available in India for Rs5000/= According to Indian standards 50 thousand Rs for a wheelchair is not affordable. Wheelchair for domestic use is intended, not for speed test, racing, sports or games.Sorry for the trouble.
