Payments starting from $10.00 per week. Underarm (Axilla) Crutches
• Stand up straight and ensure that you are wearing your regular walking shoes.
• The top of your crutches should be 1 – 2 inches below your armpits.
• The handgrips should be level with the crease of your wrists and when you hold the
handgrips, there should be a slight bend in your elbow.
• To protect the nerves and blood vessels in your armpits, weight should be taken though
the handgrips, not through the underarm supports.
