Quick Summary
- Lightweight Anodized Aluminum: High-strength frame that is easy to maneuver and lift.
- Push-Button Adjustment: Simple 1-inch increments with height scales for fast, tool-free fitting.
- Premium Cushioned Pads: Extra-thick underarm and hand pads reduce soreness and nerve pressure.
- Reinforced Center Tube: Double-extruded construction provides weight-bearing strength where it's needed most.
- Heavy-Duty Rubber Tips: Oversized tips provide superior traction and absorb shock on hard surfaces.
Why Choose Rhythm Healthcare Crutches?
The Rhythm Healthcare Crutches are designed with the user's daily comfort in mind. One of the most common issues with underarm crutches is "crutch palsy" or nerve irritation under the arms. Rhythm addresses this with premium, high-density padding that maintains its shape longer than budget alternatives, providing a softer interface between the crutch and the body.
Safety is reinforced through the double-extruded center tube. This design provides additional load-bearing strength in the middle of the crutch, preventing the frame from bowing or flexing when full weight is applied. This is critical for users who need a rock-solid foundation while navigating stairs or doorways.
Fitting the crutches is simple and accurate thanks to the stamped height scale. With a simple push-button mechanism, you can adjust both the overall height and the hand-grip position to find the most ergonomic alignment for your arms and torso.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How do I adjust the hand grip height?
Rhythm crutches feature wing nuts on the hand grips. Unscrew the wing nut, remove the bolt, and slide the handle to the position that allows for a slight 15-degree bend in your elbow when standing upright. Securely tighten the wing nut before use.
Should my armpits rest on the pads?
No. For safety and to prevent nerve damage, there should be a 2-finger gap between your armpit and the top of the crutch pad. Your weight should be supported by your hands on the hand grips, not your underarms.
Are the rubber tips replaceable?
Yes. The heavy-duty rubber tips will eventually wear down. We recommend inspecting them regularly for cracks or smoothed-out treads and replacing them with standard crutch tips to maintain safe traction.
Can these be used by someone weighing 300 lbs?
Yes, the Rhythm Standard Aluminum Crutches are tested and rated to support a maximum weight capacity of 300 lbs when used as a pair.
