Thank you for giving freedom back to my husband

Rating:

What was your concern with this review?

My husband was diagnosed with Parkinson's in 2005 and as the symptoms progressed, his mobility and confidence to get out and walk diminished. He had been using ski-pole type sticks and although successful a few years ago, they no longer give enough support and stability. He also needs to sit down more frequently. There aren't many seats on the walks we enjoy in the countryside, setting off a cycle of panic and worsening freezing gait (Parkinsons).
After much research, worrying about the suitability and expense we got the Veloped Tour, being the most suitable for the type of off-road walks we enjoy.
His strength isn't what it used to be so we had concerns he would not have the strength to push the Veloped, but it has been fine. We are enjoying many walks again. Mike's confidence, mood and muscle tone have all improved considerably.
So many thanks for giving him (and therefore both of us) the keys to freedom!!

    She is much admired particularly by me. She offers so much more stability over sticks, beautifully designed and made, the only thing I have added is a strap to clamp her together when manoeuvring in and out of the car. Looking at the brochure I was w…
