Whether you’re recovering from surgery or navigating long-term mobility needs, walking safely on crutches is essential, not just for comfort, but for confidence. Slippery floors, uneven sidewalks, and crowded spaces can turn a simple trip into a challenge. But with the right technique and the right equipment, you can move through your day with ease. In-Motion underarm and forearm crutches are built for comfort and when used properly can help you safely navigate the trails of life…wherever your adventures take you.  Our crutches are made for women, men, tall people, as well as short people.  We are the right choice if you want a more comfortable experience on crutches! Indoor Safety Tips Your home should be a haven, not a hazard. Here are a few tips to make it more crutch-friendly: Clear Your Path

• Remove rugs, cords, and clutter
• Keep walkways well-lit
• Use non-slip mats in bathrooms and kitchens

  Use Proper Technique

• Keep elbows slightly bent
• Place crutches slightly ahead of you, not directly under your arms
• Step with your injured leg first when going down stairs (if allowed), and with your good leg first when going up

  Take Breaks

• Avoid standing too long in one spot
• Avoid using your crutches to get up from a sitting position, use a chair with armrests to help you sit and stand safely

  Outdoor Safety Tips Navigating the world outside requires extra awareness, but it’s absolutely doable. Watch the Terrain

• Look out for cracks, gravel, and wet leaves
• Use articulating crutch tips for better grip on uneven surfaces
• Avoid icy or slick areas, especially in colder months
• When walking on a new surface or one that can be potentially slippery, keep your gait shorter; don’t get the crutches too far out in front of you.  This is true when you are not using crutches as well.

  Dress for Stability

• Wear shoes with good traction
• Avoid long coats or bags that throw off your balance
• Use a backpack or crossbody bag to keep hands free

  Stay Visible

• If walking at dusk or night, wear reflective gear
• Choose crutches with low-noise tips to avoid startling others in crowded areas
