What is an Adjustable Cane?
An adjustable cane is a cane that has the ability to be adjusted to any height within a specified range. Adjustable canes are one of the most popular types of canes utilized by seniors; they help individuals with limited mobility to get around and accomplish daily tasks.
Who Should Use an Adjustable Cane?
Adjustable canes are canes with a height adjustment capability. They are most often used to provide individuals with limited mobility with walking assistance. Adjustable walking sticks for elderly or disabled people (or anyone else who requires their use) are not designed for those with very low mobility; they are for individuals who only need one-sided assistance. (If someone needs two-sided assistance, he should rather choose a walker over a cane.)
Most often, adjustable aluminum walking canes are utilized by elderly individuals. However, they are also often utilized by people with disabilities or balancing issues, or who are for whatever reason currently in physical therapy. An individual with a prosthetic leg will likely use a cane; he’ll keep it on the side of the good leg.
Parts of Adjustable Canes
An adjustable cane is comprised of several components; a shaft, a tip (aka ferrule), a collar, a handle, and a height adjustment button.
- Shaft: The shaft of the adjustable cane is the actual ‘stick;’ the long part of the cane that extends from the handle to the tip of the cane.
- Collar: The adjustable cane’s collar is a piece that distantly resembles a ring, that is placed between the cane shaft and the cane handle.
- Tip or Ferrule: The tip (or ferrule) of any type of cane is the piece placed over the bottom of the cane, which prevents the bottom end of the cane from becoming worn or rubbed out.
- Wrist Strap: The wrist strap is a very practical component of the cane. The cane user can sling his arm through the wrist strap, so that the cane will be less likely to fall down.
- Height Adjustment Button: The height adjustment button allows for the cane to be adjusted to the proper cane height. This button can usually be found somewhere on the shaft.
- Handle: The handle of an assistive cane is one of the biggest factors in determining the users’ comfort. There are quite a few different style handles; each featuring distinct benefits.You can choose the handle you want based on your preferences. Read on for a summary of each kind of handle so that you can make an educated decision about which handle you’d prefer for your cane.
