🌟 Rediscover your mobility with SideStix! 🌟
Are you using traditional crutches and finding them uncomfortable, tiring on your arms/shoulders, or limiting what you can do? It’s time to switch to something a game-changer: SideStix forearm crutches.

Why SideStix?

Engineered with ultra-light carbon fibre (and aircraft-grade aluminium) so you can move easier and carry less weight.

Features a built-in shock absorbing system to reduce joint compression and fatigue — meaning less strain on your wrists, elbows and shoulders.

Built to handle real life terrain: water, sand, mud, hiking trails — whether you're simply walking the dog or tackling outdoor adventures.

Fully custom-sized and designed for comfort: forearm cuff options, grip styles, attachments & accessories to match your lifestyle.

Rated up to 140 kg (309 lbs) for use, so strong performance and durability are built in.

👉 If you’re based in the Canterbury region and wanting to regain confidence, reduce discomfort, and enjoy your day-to-day without limitations, we can help you explore SideStix. Whether it’s for everyday mobility, getting back into recreation, or enhancing comfort and freedom — now’s a great time.
