INDESmed Carbon Forearm Crutches
Invest in your health and therefore in INDESmed!
These crutches are the ultimate in ergonomics, adaptability and lightness. They are the lightest walking aids in the world, which are made of high-quality carbon and stand for strength and high shock absorption. For a colourful everyday life, they are available in four modern colours.
Despite their lightness, the carbon walking supports are surprisingly strong and can withstand loads of up to 200 kg body weight.
The millimetre-precise adjustment ensures a perfect fit to your body size and can thus reduce pain in the wrists, shoulders and back.
Choosing the right size and adjustment is done by sliding the handle and arm guide along the oval tube. There are different tube lengths to ensure optimal ergonomics for any body size.

Instruction: Adjust INDESmed crutches correctly
Proper fitting of your INDESmed forearm crutches is crucial to ensure comfort and freedom from pain.
Step 1: Adjust body size
Before first use, stand upright in a walking position. The unloaded leg in front, the crutches next to it.
Step 2: Relaxed posture
Keep your elbows slightly bent, arms loose against your body. Avoid pulling your shoulders up.
Step 3: Grip height
The handle should be at the level of the thigh bone.
