I Need Support In Front To Walk

Anterior Walkers and Gait Trainers for Learning to Walk or Recovering the Ability to Walk

Our walkers and gait trainers have been selected because of their reputation for quality and the therapeutic benefits they provide. There are two basic categories of walkers, anterior and posterior (also called reverse). Anterior walkers are placed in front of the user who places their weight forward onto the walker through their arms and pushes the walker forward. These are traditional walkers. Posterior walkers are placed behind the user and weight bearing is down through the arms as hand placement is to the sides. The anterior walker orientation is often used with individuals that need to lean forward to propel themselves but have a difficult time maintaining their balance while doing so.

On this page you will find anterior walkers and gait trainers and some devices that can be configured for either orientation. They are offered in a full range of sizes appropriate for toddlers who are just beginning to walk through tall adults who have been walking for decades. The walkers shown offer a wide variety of accessories such as anterior chest supports, forearm weight bearing adaptions for users who cannot bear weight through extended arms and hands and many different wheel configurations with motion limiting mechanisms that impact the amount of support and resistance the walker or gait trainer offers. These walkers are also versatile and highly adjustable, so they can be adapted as the user’s ability changes. Many walkers today also have optional accessories to convert them to gait trainers and most support features on gait trainers can be removed once the user’s ability has improved, making the transition between gait trainers and walkers a natural progression.

Which Walker or Gait Trainer is Right for Me?

Talking to your therapist or your child’s therapist is always the best place to start when considering walkers and gait trainers. But if you have specific questions about the products shown here, the therapists on our staff are happy to provide clarification and custom advice. We ask that you begin the process by sending us a size help request and then we can work together with you from there.
