Walker Boots are also known as Cam Boots, Cam Walkers, Moon Boots, Cast Boots, Air Casts, Fracture Boots and a variety of other names. They are a great alternative to a cast for fractures of the foot and ankle, stress fractures and ligament and tendon injuries and surgical repairs that need immobilisation. Walker boots are more comfortable than a cast and can be taken off if you have a wound that needs dressing or to begin early physiotherapy if allowed by your specialist. These boots are especially good if you are allowed to walk on your leg as they have a rocker sole that aids walking.
We stock high quality Air Walker Boots in knee high and ankle high sizes. They have the following features
- Internal air cushions to provide more padding, comfort and support, with an integrated pump allowing easy inflation or deflation
- Extra padding that can be inserted under straps
- A rocker bottom to aid walking
- Velcro straps which can be adjusted to accommodate bigger or smaller calf muscles
At Sutherland Shire Physiotherapy Centre we can fit you with an Air Walker Boot.
Please call us for an appointment. We will try to get you in the same day if you have an injury that needs immobilisation.
