Walking sticks for short ladies - Petite cane
The importance of using a walking cane that is the proper height simply cannot be underestimated. When a cane is the right size for the user, it allows the person to move around more confidently and easily. However, when a cane is not the correct size, ultimately, it is contra purposeful. This is because the user’s impetus for acquiring a cane is based on the fact that a cane is designed to assist the user with maintaining his balance, and to ensure the user is being properly supported while in a mobile state. Ergo, it is best to not have a cane at all rather than have a cane that is too high.
When a short person utilizes a tall cane, it is much more strenuous for him. He has to put in much more effort in order to raise the cane following each step. He must be careful to keep the cane straight, even though it is too high, because if he doesn’t do so, it may cause him to lose his balance. Also, a cane that is too high may trigger pain or strain on back and upper and lower arm muscles.
For all these reasons, it is imperative for a person to pick the cane that is the right height.
Petite cane fashions have been changing over the years. Recently, we have witnessed the emergence of smaller canes that qualify as dress canes for women. Canes made from different materials, including aluminum and carbon fiber, too have made it to this segment. Some canes have progressed into becoming defining examples of this segment, such as folding petite canes with a floral print.
Derby handles continue to dominate this segment of canes for women and those who prefer much lighter canes. Derby handles have the reputation to be the easiest to grip, ensuring the wrist, hand, or fingers are not pressurized.
A pediatric cane is not the same thing as a walking cane for a short person. The difference between the two is subtle, but distinct nonetheless: A pediatric cane is designed to support a child, and will usually be between 21 and 28 inches high. It has a weight capacity of about 150 pounds. In contrast, a walking cane for short persons can generally be to any height between 28 and 38 inches, and can hold at least 250 pounds. Essentially, a pediatric cane is designed for use by a child, while a walking cane for a short person was constructed to support a short person who is not in the throes of childhood, or even at the threshold of adolescence.
There are many different designs to choose from when it comes to picking a walking cane for a short person. You can choose from a short walking cane with a floral design, one with a epoxy resin handle, one with a leather handle, or in a classic design.
Petite canes might be interpreted as lighter canes too but the distinction is essentially based on their intended users, i.e. women, who prefer smaller canes. Standard canes may or may not address cane requirements of women. This is because a regular shaft is usually thick and the design might appear too drab to women. Use this resource to understand cane measurement standards. Yes, petite walking canes are smaller walking canes but this does not diminish their ability to function as a dependable mobility aid. In fact, the petite cane marketplace has been aggressively expanding with an increased demand from women. Some classic choices continue to be very popular in this specialized cane segment. This includes canes with a smart collar often finished in platinum or steel.
