Motivator Folding Travel Poles and Accessories
The Motivator Folding Travel Pole has been lauded by physical therapists for its use in the rehab process due to the increased balance and stability patients find with the unique grip offering two thumb positions. Likewise, many individuals using walking poles for Nordic and routine walking find that the grip provides additional wrist support and less thumb strain due to the patented palm cradle feature.
Lauren DeLong, the creator of the Motivator, noted, "The Motivator offers patented (pending) contoured grips with two thumb support positions to stabilize the trapeziometacarpal joint and reduce strain on the carpometacarpal (CMC) thumb joint. This never-seen-before strapless grip design improves proprioception and offers state-of-the-art ergonomics and best-in-class hand support for the biaxial saddle joint. The result is a 10 times reduction in stress at CMC joint minimizing torsional load while providing balance and stability to the patient looking for motivation to begin walking more confidently. After hearing from our customers and recognizing the benefits of the grip, we decided to develop a travel version that could help people when they are on the move."
In addition to general health benefits, pole walking has been shown to aid those living with Parkinson's Disease, MS and osteoarthritic hips and knees, as well as in the recovery process by aiding stability and developing strength. The Motivator Folding Travel Poles fold up to just 13.5" so that they can easily be packed or stored during travel so the benefits from walking can always be realized.
York Nordic was founded by Lauren, who is also a certified Nordic Walking instructor, when she decided to design and manufacture her own poles after finding most poles lacked quality, style, and key features for different age groups and physical abilities. The poles are sold nationally and have been used in classes and health studies throughout the U.S. Visit www.yorknordic.com.
