Key Features and Benefits

• Green laserline that stimulates a freeze break: With the press of a button, the Rollz Motion Rhythm will project a green laserline on the ground. Having a visual line to step over is a professionally recommended way to break free from a freeze if you ever find yourself stuck.
• Sound and tactile cues to improve rhythm: The metronome and vibrating handles of the Parkinson's Rollator work together to set the step frequency and regulate the walking speed. These cues can be adjusted either on the rollator module itself or via the Rollz app to suit your preferences.
• Ergonomic design for comfort and stability: Adjustable foam hand grips and large rear wheels with soft tyres make the Rollz Motion Rhythm both secure and comfy.

Who Can Use the Rollz Motion Rhythm Parkinson's Rollator?

The visual, sound and tactile cues that the Rhythm Rollator features make this the ideal rollator for those who suffer from neurological diseases such as Parkinson's disease or Multiple Sclerosis. Physiotherapists and other healthcare professionals can also use the Rollz Motion Rhythm to support patients rehabilitating from neurological or mobility-impacting injuries. 

Where Can I Use the Rollz Motion Rhythm?

Equipped with curb assistance and mobile front wheels, the Rhythm Rollator offers great manoeuvrability, making it perfect for use in towns or cities. The foldable design of the rollator also makes it great for fitting in to the boot of a car or to put aside before taking a seat in a restaurant or theatre.

How Does the Rollz Motion Rhythm Break Freezes?

Muscle freezes are a common symptom of Parkinson's disease which can be both embarrassing and debilitating. Healthcare professionals suggest imagining a line or barrier to cross as a phycological trick to help people break from such freezes. That's why the Rollz Rhythm features an ingenious green laserline that gives the user a visual aid for them to cross to help get them back into action.

How Does the Rollz Motion Improve Rhythm?

As well as visual cues, this Rollz Motion model is fitted with audio and tactile cues that help regulate rhythm. The audio cues create a consistent noise pattern that is synchronised with vibrations to help the user walk in step. The speed and intensity of the cues can be tweaked using either the electronic module on the rollator frame or using the Rollz smartphone app.

Regain Rhythm Your Way

For some Parkinson's patients, habituation as a result of prolonged exposure to the cues stimuli can cause them to stop responding to it. To counter this, the Rollz Motion Rhythm is supported by the Rollz app, which lets you tweak multiple settings such as:

• Speed
• Cue combination
• Intensity
• Duration
• Predictability

These variables can be changed based on the user's own experience, or adjusted to meet training goals prescribed by a physical therapist.
