Step by step to a better quality life

Since the main tube of the GANYMED® is placed to the fore of the handle, the centre of gravity is differently positioned to classic forearm crutches. It helps you stand straighter and more upright which prevents or even improves back problems.Thanks to the upper part's angulation, less force is exerted on the wrist when walking thus eliminating wear and tear and lessening the risk of Carpal tunnel syndrome. The GANYMED® walking aid is designed to be perfectly balanced; it can be hung up anywhere and is therefore always within easy reach.

GANYMED® forearm crutches provide significant relief for all types of walking difficulties. Whether you have a short, long-term or permanent disability, your GANYMED® walking aid supports you in every situation.

Unlike traditional supports, GANYMED® crutches clearly facilitates your gait. You walk in a more upright fashion with less shoulder stress. The handle's ergonomic design and angulation place far less stress on your wrists than conventional supports.

You can ask your health insurance company to refund the cost of your GANYMED® walking aid. Health insurers are legally obliged to reimburse all costs provided the prescription is made out as follows:

1 pair of GANYMED walking aids
HMV No. 10.50.02.1032
+ your diagnosis

In the case of privately insured persons, the amount will be reimbursed when the paid invoice is submitted.

According to German law § 33, Clause 1 of SGB V, the rejection of an aid claim by the health insurance company is only permitted if an improved therapeutic benefit can be achieved with another form of treatment. The health insurance company cannot refuse a claim merely on the grounds that the desired aid is too expensive or uneconomical.
