The iWalk 2.0 is finally here. Losing your leg no longer means losing your life.
We wish that we could help everyone avoid the pain and inconvenience of using crutches, but we can’t. While the iWalk 2.0 can and does bring new mobility and functionality to the lives of countless people, it does have its limitations. Conventional crutches and alternatives such as knee scooters leave your entire injured leg and hip mostly dormant.
The iWALK2.0 medical supply knee scooter is the only crutch alternative that fully engages the muscles of your upper leg, thigh and hip when walking and standing which improves your motor function throughout and immediately after the rehabilitation period. Moving your leg increases blood circulation, which assists the body in healing. The additional comfort and efficiency of iWALK 2.0 will also induce you to be more mobile than you would be with other mobility assistance devices.

We all fall down at some point. Falling on crutches is a particularly messy affair. Not only can you get tangled up in the crutches, but your hands and arms are not readily available to break your fall. Small elevation changes like stepping off a curb present a dangerous challenge on crutches. iWALK 2.0 provides unparalled personal safety – even walking up and down stairs is safely accomplished using iWALK 2.0.
Exercise and physical activity is an important part of many people’s lives. Crutches severely limit a person’s ability to stay active. The iWALK 2.0 does not just making walking and standing easier. iWALK 2.0 customers have demonstrated the iWALK 2.0 can make activities possible that would be unimaginable on conventional crutches. iWALK 2.0 is the only crutch alternative where users can maintain their active lifestyle: golfing, bowling, hiking, going to the gym, playing basketball, and even playing tennis (though we don't recommend it to the average user) are all possible with the iWALK 2.0.
iWalk2.0 Testimonials:
“You can't hold a pulling dog on a leash with crutches”
Thank you iWALK-Free for giving me back my life! Byron, my 4 year old Brittany, is a bundle of energy and is used to going for his daily walk. That all ended with crutches, and I don’t know who was more miserable – me or him.
With the iWALK2.0 I took my dog for a 35 min walk and then a 25 min walk, did a bunch of errands and housework. The coolest part – I can cook and even deliver my plate to the table. Previously I had to have someone deliver it or I just stand and eat.

"I was able to cook Thanksgiving dinner, put up my Christmas decorations, and ride up and down the escalators at Macy's while carrying my shopping bags last weekend, thanks to the iWALK2.0!"
Decorating the Holiday is hard enough as is - but on crutches it is impossible!
I'm 55 years old and fairly athletic for my age. I purchased the original iWALKFree after foot reconstruction surgery.
I was able to go up and down the stairs in my home, as well as complete other activities of daily living requiring the use of both hands and arms during the 4-6 weeks of non-weight bearing on my right foot.I purchased the all new iWALK2.0 when I had the same surgery, this time on my left foot. I took it out of the box, put it together and started walking on it right away.
I find the iWALK2.0 to be much lighter and the straps easier to operate. There's also a handle at the top of the crutch that doubles as a cane if needed. I find I have more confidence with the iWALK2.0, in terms of getting in and out of it, so I am much more confident donning it in public. During what might have been a dull holiday weekend spent confined to my upstairs bedroom, I was able to cook Thanksgiving dinner, put up my Christmas decorations, and ride up and down the escalators at Macy's while carrying my shopping bags last weekend, thanks to the iWALK2.0! I absolutely don't know what I would have done without the use of the iWALK2.0! While a knee scooter is handy, it is simply not practical in a multi-level home.
I recommend both of these products to anyone with a below-the-knee injury; however, I must admit I am partial to the iWALK2.0 for the ease of donning and securing the straps.
These devices have given me precious freedom during two extremely confining post operative recovery periods.
Thank you!

With your iWALK you can drop the crutches and grab a beer!
"Buddy, it's legit. . .the only way to get back to just a little bit of normal. It's hands (or cruches) down, the reason I can get back to work. . ."
Drop the crutches and grab an iWALK (and a beer). Bet you can't do this on crutches! It's also great for more professional pursuits. . . like working in a hospital!

The iWalk is also great for more professional pursuits, like working in a hospital!
Joe was able to judge the World Highland Games Championship, despite an injury, with his iWALK 2.0 crutch!
“Having now used the iWALK 2.0, I would never consider using crutches again. Neither should you."
Before the iWALK2.0, I was encumbered with a walker, wheelchair and crutches. Living in my 3rd floor condo was a nightmare.
Having had multiple injuries in the past, I had resigned myself to crutches, but the iWALK2.0 changed everything and gave me back my life. I regained almost full mobility. I was able to get out, run errands, go out with my friends, go for walks without any pain or inconvenience or any of the other things associated with crutches and walkers.
I would highly recommend it to anyone. Having now used the iWALK2.0, I would never consider using crutches again. Neither should you.
It was a lifesaver. It really was. Thank you iWALK2.0

"With my iWALK2.0, I can be a functioning and able human being again, this is a happy day!!"
You can garden even with a lower leg injury!
Hold that cup of coffee securely when you on your iWALK2.0! Made my own coffee in my favourite cup, and off to see my gardens! Since receiving the iWALK2.0, I've watered my vegetable gardens, and I will even get back to milking! Gosh, it's a wonderful thing!
Thank you so much for the effort taken to get me the iWALK2.0! With my iWALK2.0, I can be a functioning and able human being again, this is a happy day!!

“I do not feel like I am limited by, or a victim of, my injury."
You can't rake leaves with crutches, but you can with the iWALK2.0!
I LOVE my iWALK 2.0 – it was very easy to assemble and took seconds to learn to use. I love having my hands free to go about my daily life, stairs are easy to navigate, there is no pressure or stress on my shoulders, arms, wrists or hands. There is also no added pressure or fatigue on my good leg and I feel more stable with my iWALK 2.0 then I ever have with traditional crutches.
I do not feel like I am limited by, or a victim of, my injury. In the beginning I had difficulty fastening of the straps so I sent iWalk an email. A customer service representative contacted me and explained that I was fastening my iWalk2.0 incorrectly, and instructed me how to do it properly - and even followed up with me the next day to make sure it was going OK. Now that is the BEST customer service I have ever experienced! Now that I know the correct way to put on and take off my iWALK 2.0 getting in and out of it is a breeze that literally takes seconds- I was so excited the first day I knew how to do it properly I kept getting up, putting it on, walking around the house, taking it off, sitting down and then repeating – just because I could.
With my iWALK 2.0 my recovery is easier, I can still go about my daily routine and I am not dependent on others to do things for me - I would NEVER use traditional crutches again! Thank you a truly wonderful product."
