Standard Parallel Bars – 10’ Rehabilitation Walking System
This 10’ parallel bar system is designed for gait training and rehabilitation in physiotherapy, orthopedic, and neuro-rehabilitation settings. Its extended length supports longer step sequences, allowing therapists to observe and refine gait mechanics over a greater distance.
The system is built on a painted steel framework combined with a laminated, wear-resistant wooden platform, equipped with access ramps to ensure safe patient entry and exit. Handrails are height-adjustable from 30.3” to 42” via a telescopic adjustment system. A twin hand-wheel locking mechanism prevents accidental loosening and eliminates slight settling of the uprights while the patient is weight-bearing, ensuring consistent stability throughout training.
The thermoplastic, non-slip handrails are durable, hygienic, and easy to disinfect, making the system suitable for intensive daily clinical use. Thanks to its modular design, multiple units can be combined to create longer systems by removing the access ramp on the joining side, adapting the setup to different therapeutic needs.
Key Features
- Clinical Length: 10’ (3 meters) length allows for extended gait analysis and longer step sequences.
- Telescopic Height Adjustment: Handrails adjust from 30.3” to 42” to accommodate various patient heights.
- Twin Hand-Wheel Locking: Ensures maximum stability and prevents settling under heavy weight-bearing load.
- Durable Platform: Laminated, wear-resistant wooden platform with a sturdy painted steel frame.
- Hygienic Handrails: Non-slip thermoplastic material that is easy to disinfect between sessions.
- Modular System: Easily extend the rehabilitation path by connecting multiple units via removable ramps.
Therapeutic Value
Qualitative Gait Analysis: The modular structure actively engages the patient during ambulation while freeing the therapist to focus on qualitative gait analysis. This is especially valuable for patients with significant neuromotor impairment, where continuous correction of posture, rhythm, joint angles, and kinematic patterns is required.
Antebrachial Support Compatibility: During the early stages of rehabilitation, the system can be used with optional antebrachial supports (sold separately). This setup minimizes interruptions during therapy and ensures patient safety while the therapist evaluates movement quality.
