Most walker require the user to grip on the levers in order to apply the brakes. Those with PSP and other neurological disorders require a walker that works the opposite way. There is a walker by the name "U Step 2 Walker" that is always in brake mode until either lever is squeezed. Most insurance company's will fight you to have them pay for it. I have put up a website that covers a number of things relating to PSP. On my site supportpsp.com there is a page detailing how to get insurance companies to pay for this better walker. This U Step 2 Walker also is bottom heavy and helps in reventing falls. My website never asks for money, and I don't accept advertising. I'm just a caregiver for my wife, and I'm trying to get good information out there.
