Customer experience walking aid City - Marian van der Weide
My name is Marian van der Weide and I live together with my wife, dog and cat in my nice house with nice city garden in the old town of Middelburg (the Netherlands). I have a walking aid City since a few months. I have this walking aid, because I walk a bit wobbly because of a muscle disease.
Muscle disease and walking support bike
I had never had something like a special adapted means of transport, but because I am walking a bit wobbly because of a muscle disease, I am now trying to find out if a walking aid works for me. I ordered the walking support bike through a movement therapist at Medipoint. I was able to buy the walking aid through the insurance company.
The City is nice and small and I can get just a bit further with it than when I walk.
Marian van der WeideUsing the City walking aid
I have had the balance bike for several months now and so far it has been going quite well, it is still taking up a lot of energy. I think it's a nice bike, but my body doesn't work as well from time to time. The other day I bought a new saddle with suspension, hopefully the bikewill sit better. I usually use the walking aid for a small walk, sometimes with my dog. Then I can play with the dog and nice walking aid. I also walk with the City through the city, on narrow pavements and in the gravel of the park. The City is nice and small and I can get just a bit further with it than when I walk.
