Parkinson rollator with customizable cues

Rollz Motion Rhythm

This rollator is meant for people living with specific neurological diseases such as Parkinson’s. Multiple stimuli are available to help the user take the first step, make subsequent steps, or maintain a walking rhythm.

The stability of the Rollz Motion Rhythm prevents falls that could occur due to balance problems. In addition, the cues overcome freezing or festinating gait patterns. A projected laser line could help to trigger the user to break a freeze. A metronome or the repeating vibration in the handles can further help to set the walking pace".

Multiple cues to break a freeze

Laser

Laser cue of the Parkinson rollator

A green laserline is projected onto the ground to stimulate breaking a freeze and improve the stride's length and walking speed.

Sound

Sound cue of the Parkinson rollator

A metronome signals the preferred step frequency. The acoustic rhythm contributes to regulating the walking speed.

Vibration

Vibration cue of the Parkinson rollator

Handles vibrate at the rhythm of the pace. A big advantage of this tactile cue is that it is not noticeable to surrounding people.

Keep on walking

Used in rehabilitation programs

This versatile rollator can be used by physiotherapists and other professionals supporting patients rehabilitating from neurological or mobility-impacting injuries. This includes people who have been in a coma, people living with Multiple Sclerosis, or other neurological conditions that require extra support in order to (re-learn how to) walk.

Regain your rhythm at the push of a button

Easy to set and activate by yourself or with your practitioner

The Rollz Motion Rhythm is developed on the same frame as the Rollz Motion, to which an electronic module has been added to offer visual, audible and tactile stimuli.

The cues of this Parkinson rollator start when one of the buttons on the handles is being pressed. Your practitioner can help choose the cue combination, frequency, duration and intensity to fit your specific situation.

Overcoming freezing of gait

Cues are meant to alert and trigger into an action

Parkinson's patients can experience sudden, short and temporary episodes of inability to move the feet forward, despite the intention to walk. This could result in the characteristic appearance of the feet making quick stepping movements in place. A trigger or cue can overcome this.

Unique combination

No Parkinson’s patient is alike, so how could one rollator work for everyone?

The three cues on the Parkinson rollator can be combined together in different ways and (de)activated on the go. This allows you to always have the right cue at the right moment.

Furthermore, each cue can be adjusted to perfectly fit your needs in terms of speed, intensity and duration. This way, every person living with Parkinson’s disease can use it in their own rhythm.

The Rollz Motion Rhythm weighs 11,6 kg,it is therefore a real lightweight rollator. When folded, it can be easily lifted into the car.

The maximum weight capacity is 125 kg. Rollz International cannot guarantee your safety when there is more than one person sitting on the seat.

This is possible if you have the wheelchair package as an accessory. With this package you can transform the Parkinson rollator into a wheelchair, and you can sit down while somebody pushes it.
