Lift chairs

Sit down and get back up with renewed comfort, safety and convenience. For anyone with a chronic condition that limits their mobility, a motorized lift chair can be the perfect answer. For some, transitioning from a standing to a seated position can be a difficult and even dangerous endeavour. A lift chair comes with a powerful lifting system that safely assists the patient from a standing to a seated position, and back to a standing position again at the push of a button. Some lift chair models also come with enhanced features such as heat and massage settings. Consult with us on the lift chair that meets your need and budget.

Walkers and rollators

A walker is the ideal mobility solution for anyone who experiences significant balance issues and is at risk of falling when moving from point A to point B. A standard walker has an aluminum frame with four legs, and all four legs stay on the ground as you walk, so the user must be able to lift the apparatus and move it forward as they go. If lifting is an issue, a rollator comes equipped with wheels, allowing the patient to simply roll forward at their own pace. We invite you to consult with us on the full range of walkers and rollators available.

Canes and crutches

We understand the importance of finding a walking cane or crutch that perfectly complements the way you move. Our canes and crutches are lightweight, affordable and ideal for patients with moderate stability issues. Whether you’re looking for a basic cane with a rounded crook handle or a quad cane that offers greater weight-bearing support, a standard underarm crutch or an ergonomic forearm crutch, we have the ideal solution for your needs and budget.
