Pendulum Cane Technique:
The Pendulum Cane Technique mimics the swinging motion of a wall clock’s pendulum, used to navigate obstacles on roads and pavements.
Holding the Cane:
– Hold the cane in a crossed position.
– Turn your hand so the index finger is beside the cane for a pendulum grip.
– Keep the elbow of the cane-holding arm close to your abdomen, with your hand at navel level and centered on your body.
Walking with the Technique:
– Swing the cane from side to side, with its tip one span away on each side.
– Move only your wrist, keeping the elbow and arm steady.
– When stepping forward with your right foot, swing the cane to the left; when stepping with your left foot, swing it to the right.
– Training for this technique includes tapping exercises and balance training.
