designed to make life in a chair easier
What makes
different?
Prevents the feet contacting the castors
Prevents the feet from being drawn under the foot plate
Prevents the feet slipping forward off the plate
Increases the contact area of the plate, reducing foot pressure
Improves the look with a built-in rear strap
The strap can be fixed around the front of the legs, preventing the feet from sliding forward, great for bumpy surfaces and leg spasms
No old leg strap sliding up and down during car transfers
What is
? A better designed wheelchair footplate
I have been using the BigPaw wheelchair footplate for over 6 months now and absolutely love it. I am a C5/6 Quadriplegic that suffers from severe muscle spasms that constantly throw my legs around when I am wheeling.
I used to keep a strap underneath my chair that I would then put over the top of my feet when my legs got bad. As this was not connected to the chair I would often forget it or lose it.
Upon receiving the BigPaw I put it on straight away using the adhesive and have not looked back since!
I have been on several overseas trips with my wheelchair being lifted in and out of taxi’s and it is still in place doing exactly what it is supposed to.
I am a photographer by trade so have to go to hard to reach locations in order to capture and the last thing I want to be doing is worrying about my feet jumping off!
Luckily I don’t have to, thanks to BigPaw!
