Q. Are air walkers good for the elderly?

The Double Air Walker like the rest of the equipment is great for people of all ages and abilities including senior fitness because it has a low effect on the joints and allows users to adjust the intensity of their workout. Strength training helps seniors maintain their independence by enhancing their balance and muscle control. Elderly people who use an air walker may have less of a risk of falling because of the device but falls are still possible. According to statistics every day 129 elderly Americans use walkers or canes and end up in hospital emergency rooms due to injuries sustained in a fall.
