The
Activator Walking Poles for Rehab
by Urban Poling were designed by an occupational therapist and gerontologist specifically for rehab and long-term conditions. These unique Nordic walking poles feature a patented hand grip for better hand support and large bell tips for increased stability.
The Activator Walking Poles for Rehab by Urban Poling are thoughtfully designed to provide more support for increased balance, taking more pressure off the back and joints. Recommended by leading surgeons, physicians, and therapists, the unique patented design enhances strengthening, stability, and off-loading for increased safety. These adapted Nordic walking poles may be beneficial for rehabilitation programs, older adults, pre or post-hip knee surgery, soft tissue injuries, Parkinson’s, stroke, MS, chronic pain, cancer rehab, spinal conditions. These high-quality trekking poles feature a new ergonomic core grip that is patented and designed for improving core strengthening while providing greater comfort and supporting the wrist in a neutral position to reduce strain. The large ergonomic handle provides greater comfort, especially for those with arthritis or repetitive strain injury. Instead of a wrist strap, the grip features a wide ledge for a more comfortable grip. The bell-shaped tips provide greater stability than boot-shaped tips. Hidden beneath the rubber boot tip of each pole is a sharp carbide steel tip, which provides increased stability on wet and uneven terrain, such as grass, trails, gravel, sand, and snow. Use the rubber bell-shaped tips indoors on dry sidewalks and asphalt. Remove the bell-shaped tip to expose the carbide steel tip. The carbide steel tip provides increased traction and stability under such conditions. The poles telescope from 4 to 6 feet long, and are collapsible for storage and travel. Activator Walking Poles for Rehab by Urban Poling are recommended by leading surgeons and physicians, designed by therapists specifically for rehab and long-term conditions.

Q:
Can I purchase straps for these poles? If so, where???
Asked by:
David R Herron
- 5/2/2021
A:
Straps are not available for these unique walking poles.
The ergonomic handle was carefully designed to most effectively exercise all the body’s major muscles and develop “core fitness” as you are poling. The grip and technique target strengthening. The ergonomic design allows the user to apply a downward pressure on the wide base of the CoreGrip (handle) with their hand and wrist supported in a neutral position thereby placing less stress on joints. The strapless handle system was also designed to reduce the risk of injuries.

Q:
how to use on a sand beach
Asked by:
Wood Sandra
- 11/27/2021
A:
The poles can be used on firm packed sand. Poles can be used all year round and can also be used for winter walking, snowshoeing, hiking and travel. Take off the rubber tips and use the carbide steel tips for additional traction and stability on slippery terrain. You can also add snow baskets to any of our poles for walking in deep snow.
