Hemi Walker User Guide: Safe and Effective Use

Hemi walkers are medically designed for people who have problems with mobility. Most patients who use this walker need the assistance of a cane but have little perception of balance. Before using the hemi walker, the user must be stable enough to stand and be able to use at least one of his arms. Hemi walkers are ideal for older people because they are suitable for easy mobility and very light.
