Miniwalk is a gait trainer for children with mobility disabilities. Miniwalk is available in two sizes and can be used by children at ages 1 - 7 years. Miniwalk has springs, which make the upper part of the frame react to the movements of the user during gait. Thereby the gait pattern of the user is stimulated, which is important. The earlier a child is stimulated to move around and explore the greater is the chance of achieving a gait pattern.
Miniwalk has a trunk support and seat that are both continuously adjustable with regards to height. This means that Miniwalk can 'grow' with your child. These settings are easily carried out without the use of tools.
The trunk support is chosen on the basis of the circumference of the child's chest. It is available in two sizes, 70 cm and 90 cm respectively.
The handlebar of Miniwalk can be angled continuously. It is positioned to help the child balance and gain control of the body.
A wide range of accessories are available for Miniwalk. To the left a pair of hip supports used by children who need support around the pelvis. The cross bar in the middle is used by children who are strong enough to walk without a seat and the antitip supports ensure that Miniwalk doesn't tilt if the child throws his or her body backwards.
Miniwalk is fitted each user by choosing springs according to the body weight of the user.
