Living with Parkinson's

At the age of 7, Matt Eagles was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, but that has never stopped him from achieving his goals and living life to the full.

After undergoing Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS), Matt is now able to control his Parkinson's through an electric current that goes into his brain. 

"I've never at any point thought I've got Parkinson's so I can't do this." Matt Eagles. 

Matt inspires everyone he meets. This is Matt's story of living with Parkinson’s.

We at Trionic are happy to see that Matt is using the Veloped everyday now, benefitting from all the unique features.

I am so incredibly grateful to you guys and Charlotte and Russ at Parkinson’s Concierge for the Veloped. It was a complete surprise and I had absolutely no idea that my wife had been arranging with Charlotte and Russ that they would deliver it personally! I have to say ...for once I was speechless!! I could have cried!! 

Matt describes the benefits he is been seeing so far:

  • I use it every day , it has given me more confidence to go out and about when my walking isn’t so good when previously I would have stayed in.
  • It has helped my posture
  • I feel so proud walking with it, I actually feel like an athlete ready for the Olympics ( wish I was !! ) . Passers by stop me and ask about it!

I will get Viv to film me in Delamere forest with it as there are some great trails there , its only down the road. I am also testing it at Oulton Park during the British Superbike meeting where I shall go all over the circuit with it! I will also be wearing my 'Im not pissed ive got Parky’s t-shirt' The riders and the general public and I love it !! Thank you soooo much once again guys.

Forever in your debt

Matt Eagles, Head of Patient Engagement, Havas Lynx

  • Veloped Trek…

    I purchased a Veloped Trek with 14-inch wheels. The delivery was prompt and it was well-packed. The assembly was simple. I have used the Veloped on different surfaces: grass, rough tracks, and paths through a wood. I have a balance problem and it has…

    Excellent design and build. Very easy to adapt handgrips angles and height for maximum comfort and tailored "fit".

  • A good purchase…

    I have had my Veloped since Christmas 2021. I unpacked it and assembled it by myself. Since then, I've walked many kilometres through the forest, over hills and valleys. If it doesn't rain, I walk 4-5 km every day without fatigue and without stopping…

  • Super article…

    We are absolutely satisfied.
    The rollator is really exclusive.
    You don't feel as if you are using a "walking aid". We are often asked how great it looks, not as "rickety" as all the others you get.
    And it is nice and light.
    We are happy to recom…

  • A well thought through and super processed construction!…

    A well thought through and super processed construction! There is no comparison to conventional walkers, it is like an expedition vehicle for the elderly young at heart. Price consistent with the best workmanship, I firmly recommend it as a loyal com…

  • The Veloped Has Changed My Life - Yippee!…

    My bicycle accident, four years ago, left me with such poor balance, that I struggled to walk with a stick. In fact, I found myself very reluctant to walk even short distances. There is the standard red rollator, something many elderly people have, b…

  • Trionic, my super ally…

    Now when the poorly plowed roads of winter are just a memory, I once again experience what a super ally the Trionic is. It rolls almost all by itself on the springy air-filled tires. The basket manages almost any heavy loads! The basket is designed s…
