Rollz Motion Rhythm

Unlike most standard Parkinson’s walkers, the Rollz Motion Rhythm is equipped with three types of cueing technology: laser, sound, and vibration. These cues are designed to help users overcome freezing of gait by triggering movement. Additionally, the walker has a built-in wheelchair function, which allows users to sit and be pushed when needed.

Freezing of gait is a common symptom of Parkinson’s disease, where a person suddenly feels as if their feet are glued to the ground, often triggered by doorways, crowds, or changes in surface. A Parkinson’s walker with visual and auditory cues, like the Rollz Motion Rhythm, can help break this freeze. The laser projects a line to step over, while the sound and vibration provide a rhythm that stimulates the brain’s motor response. This combination helps restore walking fluency and reduce fall risk.

A good Parkinson’s walker should offer more than just physical support. Look for cueing systems (laser, sound, vibration) that actively assist in overcoming freezing episodes. The walker should also be stable and easy to manoeuvre, with features such as ergonomic handles, height adjustability, reliable brakes, and a lightweight yet sturdy frame. For added flexibility, a built-in wheelchair function can be a major benefit for longer outings.

Yes, the Rollz Motion Rhythm converts easily into a transport wheelchair. The transition is tool-free: simply attach the footrests and reposition the handles. This function is especially useful when the user gets tired or needs extra support during longer walks. It enables caregivers or companions to push the user comfortably.
