What clients, physiotherapists and occupational therapists are saying about the Activator Poles.

What a difference the poles have made! I am 61, overweight and have Type 2 diabetes and my feet used to get very sore when I walked. Now with the Activator poles I have no problems with balance, sore feet or going downhill. I enjoy walking because my fears of injury are gone. I feel confident, stand taller and get a better workout than when walking without them. I love the handles because my hands don't get sore like they did from gripping walking sticks. Bob Lewis, Activator user, Springfield, ON

Activator poles are an excellent tool for seniors to improve their gait, balance and  posture. Cathy McNorgan, physiotherapist, Waterloo, ON

I first used my Activator poles following a total knee reconstruction. My rehabilitation period was not only shortened, it was much more fun!
