Grillo Gait Trainer

Grillo is a gait trainer designed to facilitate the autonomous movement of children and adults. Grillo’s original design and patented height adjustment system makes it stylish and safe to use. Available in front and rear drive models, it is extremely customisable, easy to use and versatile, due to its various adjustments and wide range of available supports.

With its extremely light aluminium folding frame, Grillo is easy to push and manoeuvre for those with reduced voluntary motor skills and balance, and folds up for compact storage and ease of transport. It has a gas-spring system that allows for safe and easy frame adjustment, even in use, whether stationary or in movement. 

The optimal centre of gravity height adjustment system allows a Grillo of just one size to adapt to the growth of a child over a long period of time.

Features

Independent anatomical supports for the trunk and pelvis

The versatility, adaptable and ergonomically designed trunk and pelvis supports ensure safety, stability and all the way round support for the user while both standing and walking. They support the user’s trunk without forcing its positioning or movement, and are designed and built to give the same feeling of safety and support as a parent supporting their child.

Precise, continuous adjustments
All adjustments are made using levers or adjustable safety handles, without needing any tools. This allows safe and easy adjustments and modifications, even while in use. It also allows for easy addition and removal of interchangeable supports.
Graduated bars
Present on all adjustable supports, these allow a certain posture to be set or restored by the clinician after closing the frame or use by another user, thus avoiding the risk of adjusting the aid in an inappropriate way.

With an abductive effect, it supports the user in case of need, when needed it acts as weigh bearing relief on lower limbs without generating any genital or inguinal
pressure. Made to ensure maximum comfort and safety, it is removable, machine washable and easy to adjust.

Quick and easy folding
The Grillo can be folded in one movement, for compact storage and ease of transport. The frame folds in on itself without the need to remove any support.

Wheels suited to any surface
The rear wheels feature an anti-rollback system to prevent backwards movement, ideal for users without good head or trunk control when first using the device. They have adjustable braking with five positions to reduce gait speed, are compatible with manual braking, and include an easily operated parking brake for positioning and transport. The front swivel wheels are steerable to ensure linear stability, allowing the user to focus on propulsion rather than steering control. Additionally, reversing the wheels transforms the front configuration into a rear one and vice versa.
