Got a new set of wheels? What? Not the kind you wanted?
I hear you! If your goal is to walk safely without a walker, and you have a therapist who believes this is a good, achievable goal, then this is for you!
This article details the exercises Dr. Katie would recommend are part of a program aimed at decreasing the need for a walker.
