A knee scooter is a mobility device that can help you get around when your injury prevents you from walking. It's a great alternative to crutches, a wheelchair, or other medical mobility aids, and it's one of the most popular devices in the market today.

A knee scooter is only beneficial for below-the-knee injuries, and if your doctor has given you the go-ahead, then it's worth considering as a mobility option.

This type of mobility assistance can help you maintain your independence and stay active during recovery periods.

Hear from real people with foot injuries who used knee scooters to improve their mobility and stay active:

Customer Success Stories

	Andrea R - Eustis, FL
	This was taken during our cruise around Iceland. Thanks to having the knee walker I was able to enjoy the cruise. Many people commented how well constructed the walker was. The injury was a stress fracture in my foot. Being able to take weight off the foot has enabled me to get around the house, go shopping, and go to Iceland. Pictured: Swivelmate Knee Walker

	Longview Texas, when I fell and ruptured my Achilles I thought my graduation trip was over - but thanks to my Knee Walker I was able to go to Texas and walk across the stage to get my diploma! We were also able to go sightseeing and enjoy a week in San Antonio! It was great! It helped in my recovery by getting me mobile. I purchased a cheap brand and had many severe falls, so I quit being mobile and gained a lot of weight. Getting the Knee Walker changed everything! I could go for walks, and start being mobile again which is good for circulation, weight loss, and sense of accomplishment. Knee walker used: Orthomate All Terrain Knee Scooter

	Tammie R. — Cape Coral / FL
	After feeling cooped up for 6 1/2 weeks with a broken foot, the Dr told me he suspects a torn ligament and to expect at least another month if not longer for my foot to heal... I had been putting off a trip to Key West until my foot was better but after learning the news my Dr I decided I am going to rent a knee scooter so I can go on my trip. I scooted 2 miles round trip our hotel down to the southern most point of the United States! The knee scooter is the best thing ever! It has allowed me to get out of my bubble, go on vacation and enjoy myself and get around outside and get some fresh air without having to worry about foot pain or set backs with my injury.

	Lauren W. — New York / NY
	It was my first weekend out in NYC using my scooter! This was at the Bronx brewery and was a crowd pleaser. I used it to knee dance and be pushed around by friends too. I've been able to be more independent including the gym, grocery shopping and even scooted 30 blocks! Knee walker used: Orthomate All Terrain Knee Scooter

In Conclusion

With so many different types of injuries or surgeries that would require a period of immobility, it's hard to know what kind of mobility assistance you may need.

If you are recovering from an injury and in the process of healing, then knee scooters might be just the type of device for your needs. They can help you regain your independence when you have limited mobility after surgery or an injury—without needing someone else's assistance.
