The Arrow Walker is designed to assist a child (from 2 to 11+years old) to move independently. It is suitable for gait training particularly for those who will be taking their first steps.

The 3 rear directional locking castors allow the user to walk on a planned course.

* The padded and adjustable forearm support can be tilted upward or downward to maintain good head and upper trunk control.
