Enjoy a comfortable grip with an Anatomical Walking Stick

16 May 2015  |  Admin

This morning we had a lovely customer in our shop who had been on holiday with his crutch-handled walking stick, but found that with all the walking he had been doing that his hand was sore, strained and the muscles were still aching. This is a common problem that some people experience with more-traditional handle types where a full grip is necessary - the hand becomes fatigued. However, we went through the various different handle types we have available at the Stick and Cane Shop, and by far the most comfortable for him was the Anatomical Handled Walking Stick.
 
Anatomical walking sticks are so called because they have handles that are shaped to fit the contours of the hand, they are moulded and shaped to evenly distribute the pressure your arm places on the stick when it is used, thereby reducing strain, shock, discomfort and muscle fatigue. These ergonomic sticks are available in our store in a variety of materials - from plastic to wood, and they can be found on a range of different walking stick models (e.g. folding, adjustable, telescopic, wooden, metal). The choice of anatomical sticks is large, and you can see the full range available at the Stick and Cane Shop here, as well as a selection we have chosen for you below to give you an idea of just how diverse this range of sticks can be.
 
Our customer left the shop very happy, using his new stick and immediately felt the benefits, and you can too! Be sure to check out our range of Anatomical Handled Walking Sticks at the Stick and Cane Shop today.
