Why does iWALKFree place such a large emphasis on Qualifications for Use?
The iWALK crutch works for most people, but not everyone. If you don't meet the Requirements for Use, the iWALK probably will not work for you, and you are better served by a different mobility device. Please review the Qualifications thoroughly.
What can I do to help me adapt to the iWALK crutch?
First, make sure that you meet the Qualifications for Use. Next, proper fitting of the crutch is essential, so follow our Fitting video instructions carefully. Finally, follow our video instructions for Taking Your First Steps.
How long will it take me to learn to walk on the iWALK crutch?
Some people learn in 10-15 minutes, but others can take a day or two. This is normal. The most important things are to A) follow our video instructions, and B) Don't give up. Watch the videos in the "What to Expect" section above.
I'm plus size. Why does that matter?
The iWALK recruits the upper thigh for stability. Plus size people may have larger thighs, which reduces the adjustment range of the iWALK and introduces more unintentional movement. This reduces stability and makes it more difficult to adapt.
Can I wear the iWALK crutch with short pants or a skirt?
Yes, but you may experience chafe where bare skin kneels on the crutch. Much like wearing a sock reduces chafe from a shoe, simply place a piece of fabric, such as a hand towel, between the bare skin and the kneeling platform to prevent chafe.
