Living with dementia

Dementia is an umbrella term for almost 50 different types of disease in which the brain can no longer process information properly. The most common of these is Alzheimer’s disease (70% of cases). One of the things that can make dementia more bearable is to keep moving. This has a positive effect on the condition, the functioning and the mood. Support to keep on moving can be given by a rollator.

Good for body and brain

Exercise is not only good for the body, but also for mental health. Why it is that exercise seems to prevent getting dementia is only partially known. What is certain is that exercise has a positive effect on known risk factors of dementia, such as high blood pressure, vascular disease, obesity and diabetes. Our various Rollz rollators help support you, keeping you moving.

The idea behind the design of a Rollz rollator is to allow to walk longer and more often than people with mobility issues are used to, having full confidence in themselves and the stability of the rollator. They will be more self-reliant and may also start to enjoy moving more. This has both physical and mental benefits.

How does a rollator provide help?

The best tool to keep moving

People with dementia often become insecure about walking, they take small steps and maintaining balance seems more difficult. As the dementia progresses, moving around can become more difficult. A stooped position, which is a symptom of Dementia, can lead to more falls. To give back certainty and let the person walk upright, a rollator is a useful tool. It offers support and stability and allows the user to walk more independently.
