Crutches & Accessories — Short-Term Recovery and Long-Term Mobility

Crutches solve two distinct problems: short-term non-weight-bearing recovery after surgery or injury, and long-term mobility for permanent users. Peak Health and Wellness stocks both underarm and forearm crutches sized for adults and youth, plus the consumable tips and pads that determine daily comfort.

What You'll Find Here

• Underarm (Axillary) Crutches: Standard wooden and aluminum underarm crutches in youth and adult sizes.
• Forearm (Lofstrand) Crutches: Forearm-cuff crutches for long-term users.
• Underarm Pads & Hand Grips: Replacement underarm pads and ergonomic hand grips for added comfort.
• Crutch Tips: Standard rubber tips and ice tips for winter use.
• Accessories: Crutch bags, crutch covers, and crutch leashes.

How to Use Crutches Right

• Underarm pad sits 1–2 in below the underarm, not in it. Weight bearing through hands — resting on the underarm causes nerve damage.
• Size matters. Hand-grip height should be at wrist-crease level with arms relaxed.
• Forearm crutches for long-term use. If you'll be on crutches for months or permanently, forearm crutches are more sustainable than underarm.
• Replace tips when worn. Slick tips cause falls — inspect monthly.
• Pad for comfort. Quality underarm pads and hand grips make daily crutch use significantly more tolerable.
