The Vermeiren Ashley model is intended for people who need to reduce the load on one leg and have an additional point of support while walking.This type of crutch can be useful after lower limb injuries, surgery, or during periods when the doctor recommends limiting support on the leg. Correct use should be determined together with the doctor, physiotherapist, or kinesitherapist, especially when the crutches are used for partial or total unloading.The Vermeiren Ashley can be used in pairs for bilateral support or individually, depending on the user's level of mobility, balance and specialist recommendation. Choosing the wrong crutch type or height can reduce comfort and increase the risk of imbalance.Medium and Tall sizes for different usersThe Vermeiren Ashley is available in two main sizes, allowing for adjustment to the user's height. The Medium size has an adjustment range of approximately 1140 to 1340 mm, and the Tall size has an adjustment range of approximately 1340 to 1540 mm.Choosing the right size is essential for a adjustable axillary crutch. A crutch that is too short can cause the trunk to bend and walk unsteadily, and a crutch that is too high can put excessive pressure on the axillary area and reduce control while walking.Before purchasing, the user's height and the required adjustment range should be checked. If the user is between two sizes, we recommend directly checking the position of the crutch and confirming the choice with a specialist or consultant.Height adjustment for correct positionCorrect crutch adjustment is important for comfort, safety, and walking efficiency. The axillary support should not press hard on the armpit. Correctly, the weight should be supported primarily by the hands, on the horizontal handle, and the upper support should provide guidance and stability.For a adjustable axillary crutch, the handle should be positioned so that the elbow remains slightly flexed when the user leans on the crutch. If the handle is too low, the user may lean over. If it is too high, the shoulder and arm may be strained.After each adjustment, it should be checked that the locking system is correctly engaged. The crutch should be stable, without play, and the lower tip should touch the ground firmly. Incorrect adjustment can lead to fatigue, shoulder discomfort, or an unsteady gait.Recommended use in recovery and daily travelVermeiren Ashley is recommended for people who need support when walking and reduce pressure on the foot. It can be used in homes, medical centers, clinics, accessible public spaces or on flat and stable outdoor paths.This adjustable axillary crutch can be useful in recovery from fractures, sprains, surgeries or other lower limb conditions. The correct way to use, the number of crutches needed and the level of load allowed on the leg should be determined by the specialist.If the user has poor balance, significant arm weakness, or an increased risk of falling, a walking frame or rollator may be more appropriate. For lighter support, a walking stick may be sufficient, depending on medical recommendation.Safety, support tip and maintenanceThe bottom tip of the crutch is designed to provide ground contact and traction. It should be checked periodically, as rubber wear can reduce stability and increase the risk of slipping.O adjustable axillary crutch should be used on clean, stable and as level a surface as possible. It is not recommended to use on ice, mud, unstable gravel, unsupported stairs, very slippery surfaces or rough terrain unless the user is trained and can control the crutches safely.Before use, the underarm support, handle, adjustment system, main tube and lower tip should be checked.
