The Strutter® Functional Orthosis (or "Strutters") is an orthotic support system that makes walking possible even for people with good upper body strength and limited to no lower body strength. They are much more than just another crutch. They are an entirely new type of product, a crutch replacement, and require 25% less energy because the shock-absorbing and spring-loaded Strutters® walk with you.

Polio Survivor Since Childhood Talks About the Strutters®
The oversized 3 x 6 inch base and articulated
foot provide greater stability and mobility than
crutches. They can be used on almost any surface
that's safe for walking, including sand, snow, gravel,
grating, mud, grass and uneven sidewalks.
​
With the Strutter®, you can walk with the confidence and security you deserve.
Unlike crutches, Strutters® are
designed to safely carry all or most of
the user's body weight under the
arms. Regular crutches can cause
nerve damage or crutch palsy -- both
common among long-term crutch users.
The Strutters® underarm orthotic support remains fixed under your arm, unlike
regular crutches that will rub, burn and
damage the nerves of your underarm, even after only one day of use.
