Best Walking Sticks for Arthritis 2024

18 January 2024  |  Eugene

Suffering from arthritis and limited mobility can be a difficult combination of ailments to deal with. If you find that using a walking stick exacerbates pain and discomfort in your hands, you're most likely using the wrong type of handle.

So what type of handle can you use, and how much more comfortable will it really be to use? Find out which type of handle is best for arthritis by reading this article, where our walking stick experts have selected some of the best options around.

Which Handle Types Are Best for Arthritis?

Hand conditions like arthritis reduce the strength of your grip, so it's important that you choose a handle that's easy to hold and fits well in your hand. Ergonomic, Fischer, and relax-grip handles have been designed for exactly this purpose, taking the strain off your joints for a more comfortable grip. All three of these handle types are for orthopaedic use and have been crafted so they contour to your hand, allowing you to remain comfortable for longer periods of time. Most of these handles are designed to fit either your left or right hand, so make sure to choose the right version for you.

Fischer Handle Walking Sticks

Fischer handle canes are always at the top of our recommendation list for those with arthritis, as they're optimally designed to take pressure off the most painful parts of arthritic hands. They're contoured to spread weight across the palms, helping to reduce to strain on wrists, knuckles and fingers.

Ergonomic Handle Walking Sticks

While the Fischer handle can be considered an ergonomic handle, there are plenty of other ergonomic designs that help to reduce pain on arthritic hands. These canes feature moulded and contoured handles designed to fit comfortably in the hand.
