Mybow Adjustable Recovery Leg Lifter Strap, 44-Inch

Leg lifter straps have a simple design, but they’re incredibly effective for people with limited mobility. They are made with rigid metal rods with grip handles on the top and foot loops on the end. People who are recovering from knee or hip surgeries may benefit from leg lifter straps, as well as those who have leg injuries or arthritis. Anyone who has difficulties moving their legs from one position to another can usually benefit from a leg lifter strap.

Leg lifter straps are inexpensive and prevent injuries while helping users reposition their legs in cars, wheelchairs, beds and chairs. They are helpful for those who need help getting in and out of bed and are incorporated in some physical therapy exercises. In some situations, continued use can help people experience an improvement in mobility in a short amount of time.

• Many patients and their caregivers order leg lifter straps while the patients are still in the hospital. That way they will be on hand when they are needed.
• People with little to no strength in their legs can quickly learn how to use these straps and build up their confidence while they also gain more independence.
• Since legs come in different sizes, it’s important to check strap sizes before buying.
• Leg lifter straps are not costly and might be covered by insurance.
