iWalk2.0: The next generation of hands-free mobility
Losing mobility and the ability to function in day to day life can be an unimaginable hardship. Learning to cope with an injury without being able to get through typical daily activities and work can create tremendous mental stress. The iWALK 2.0 is the alternative to crutches that can help ease the stress of managing daily activities with an injury. The iWALK 2.0 gives you much more than just the ability to walk. It gives you back your freedom.
We wish that we could help everyone avoid the pain and inconvenience of using crutches, but we can’t. While the iWalk 2.0 leg support crutches can and does bring new mobility and functionality to the lives of countless people, it does have its limitations.

If you have a lower leg, ankle or foot injury that is required to be non-weight bearing during recovery, then, in most instances, iWalk 2.0 will work for you.
Typical injuries include (but are not limited to) any sprain, Achilles tendon rupture, strain, fracture, dislocation or surgery to the lower leg, ankle or foot. Common conditions we experience are sprained ankles, fractures of the lower leg, foot or ankle, Achilles tendon injuries and surgeries, Plantar fasciitis, foot surgeries such as bunion or foot ulcer correction.
iWalk 2.0 is also useful as a gateway device during prosthetic limb transition periods or as a shower / swim prosthetic for users of permanent prosthetic limbs. In short, if you’ve sustained an injury to your lower calf, ankle or foot, and you need to be non-weight bearing, then iWalk 2.0 leg support crutch can be used instead of conventional crutches.
The iWalk2.0 Leg Support Crutches Product Reviews and User Testimonials:
“I'm 62. . . it took me about 5 minutes to get comfortable. . . I wish I had found it a little sooner!"
"The iWALK 2.0 is a wonderful thing!
If you have a lower leg or foot injury & have normal balance you can get used to this crutch very easily. I broke my foot and ankle and was stuck not being able to do normal everyday things because of how restrictive crutches and knee walkers are. In fact, I had fallen three times with the crutches. With the iWALK 2.0 your hands are free and you are able to do routine things to help out your caregiver, and this allowed me to not feel so helpless. I'm 62, and after watching the online videos and getting the iWALK 2.0 assembled and adjusted, it took me about 5 minutes to get comfortable with the crutch. I wish I had found it a little sooner could have saved me a fall or two. Also, customer service is terrific, I had a minor problem and they were all over it. If you have this type of injury – you need this crutch!"

"It's not about what you CAN'T do, it's about what you CAN do!"
"First thing people say, "I've never seen that before, WOW!" Yes it is new, like less than one month old new. How did I luck out? Fate I would say. A little good karma maybe. I honestly am so grateful to have this device instead of the alternatives. I was on crutches for less than 2 days and I could already feel that the quality of my life the next 3-4 weeks was going to be bad.
The next 10 mins I walked around the house and practiced going up and down stairs. I was an expert. It is light. It is adjustable. It is easy to take on and off. It is comfortable. It is the best!
Now 8 days in, I have battled sand and dirt and stadium stairs. Nothing holds me back from going where I need to get. Maybe I can't go as fast as normal, but I can go!
Its not about what your CANT DO, its about what you CAN DO!"

“Two beautiful weeks walking cobblestone streets, parks, and going up and down stairs. The iWALK 2.0 saved the trip."
To care for myself and 8 month old baby was impossible. A rush order of the iWalk 2.0 got it in my hands two days before our flight. A couple practice runs and we were off. Here we are in front of Blenheim Palace in the Cotswolds, England. Two beautiful weeks walking cobblestone streets, parks and going up and down countless flights of stairs. The iWalk 2.0 saved the trip."

The iWalk "lets Mr. Chavez do life" despite his lower leg injury.
“iWALK 2.0 lets me do life”
“What I really like about the hands free crutch is that I’m not held captive like with standard crutches. It’s especially easy to take on and off which is especially handy when getting in and out of the car.
People always notice the iWALK 2.0, and strangers are always commenting that they wish that they had known about this when they were on crutches. I’ve even had a couple people offer to buy it from me when I’m done! The iWALK 2.0 – it lets me do life!"

“I liked my iWALKFree, but I LOVE my iWALK2.0!”
“I’ve had to have two surgeries this year on my ankles. After the first surgery, I used the 1st generation iWALKFree crutch, which was OK, but I had to use a cane to help keep myself stabilized. After the second surgery, I purchased the 2nd generation iWALK2.0, which was a great deal easier to use. Definitely lighter, and it feels more comfortable.
When I’m out in public with my iWALK2.0, I entertain people wherever I go. No one has seen anything like it before and all think (and I agree) it is much better than dealing with a kneeling walker (knee scooter) or regular crutches.
I tell everyone that all I need is an eye patch and a parrot and I would look like a Pirate. Arrrgh!”

"My name is Isaac Deuling and I'm a firm believer in the amazing iWalk. Recently, I broke my left talus bone in my ankle and tore my left AC in my shoulder. With these two injuries being on the same side of my body, crutches were definitely out of the question. After I discovered iWalk, my recovery process changed dramatically!
I no longer had to sit on the couch watching endless hours of television or battle with the inclination to stay in bed till noon. iWalk-Free has freed me from uncomfortable crutches and enabled me to walk and carry something simultaneously, hold hands with my girlfriend, continue my hobby of fixing things, help with housework and so many other functions I took for granted when life was "normal". iWalk-Free has made my injured life more therapeutic by enabling the use of my upper leg muscles while strapped in, thus making my post physio recovery faster.
Thank you so much for your wonderful invention."

"I have been using the iWalk-Free for 3 weeks now, and it is a bloody Godsend. Interior painting, laying flooring, moving furniture, and going up and down two flights of stairs on a regular basis are all possible. . . and it’s good for at least 3 pirate jokes per day."

"As a General Surgeon, I spend my working hours standing at an operating table, impossible with crutches…and have been on my I-walk-free …for nearly six months. This device is one of the most fantastic, original, insightful and important medical innovations of recent years and has allowed me to maintain my job, my family, and my sanity despite a nasty injury."
—Richard W. Shallman MD. WA.

"After being on crutches for only 4 days I was at my whits end. My job was nearly impossible, and I was zero help around the house. Within a half hour of receiving my iWalk-Free I went from helpless to helpful.
With my iWalk-Free I was able to operate my business, blow leaves, and cut down trees around my house. Not to mention laundry, dishes, and cleaning!"
—Health B. — Ohio

“Duh – why hasn’t anyone thought of this before? Once I saw the iwalkfree, I understood immediately it’s huge advantage over crutches. Why would anyone ever think about using crutches again?”
—Jim Davis – Austin, Texas

Jon demonstrates there are more important things to hold than crutches. . . children!
"iWalk-Free crutch has been a life saver during my recovery from a ruptured Achilles’ Tendon. Instead of being helpless and feeling like a burden, I can now perform day-to-day tasks with no issues. Cooking, cleaning, and playing with/carrying my 2 year old daughter all became possible once again.
The iWalk-Free even gives me great traction through this rigid Canadian Winter season, and I can still shovel snow from my driveway. This is a great product and I am very thankful for it. The iWalk Customer Service team has been very helpful and accommodating to me.
I’ll definitely be recommending this product to friends, family, and even strangers crutching around. THANK YOU iWalk-Free!!"
—Jon L – Calgary, Alberta

The requirement of carrying up to four gallons of water (much of the time up and down stairs) could not even be attempted while using crutches. My iWalk crutch gave me the freedom to continue working while I healed from my injury. There is simply no other way I could have continued my business – and my income.
Thank you for this wonderful product."

The iWalk enabled JoAnn to help clean up the destruction caused by Hurricane Sandy."I live in New Jersey and we experienced about 5 feet of water in our neighborhood from Hurricane Sandy. After the hurricane there was such a mess to clean up and without my iWalk I would have been confined to the couch. I was three and a half weeks post surgery when Sandy hit. I was able to go outside and help clean the mess that she left. I can't say enough about how your product help me mentally as well as physically during the whole ordeal. Even without the hurricane, I felt I had my life as close to normal as I could and I think it really helped me heal. Thank you again for all your help. I am in a walking boot now, but when I've been on my foot too much I can just grab my I walk free and I'm off and running."
