Additional benefits of Pole-Walking include:
- Reduce risk of falling
- Reduce stress on tired or arthritic knees, hips, and spine
- Use your upper body muscles to improve strength and help preserve your joints
- Navigate everyday obstacles (like curbs and ramps) with ease
- And more!
We’ll be showing different models of poles and tips — including special balance tips and more active walking tips to help you learn which poles fit you best and will help you achieve your goals.
