Acquiring and sharing knowledge on mobility walking aids as provided by professional therapists. Through the sharing of this knowledge we aim to help people make informed decisions on which walker is ideal for them depending on their specific condition.

Our vision:

To provide an international community for professionals through which they may interact with each other as well as existing and prospective patients online.

Our values:

While we strive to only provide the most accurate information on mobility and build trust within the community, we understand that it is not our position to replace a visit to the therapist but rather to compliment it.
